RAGGAE

Your list is suspect. You are including Dancehall which, okay, sure it can be considered a development of or even a sub-genre of reggae, but if so Buju Banton should be high on your list.

Inna Heights is the best reggae/dancehall album of the last 30 years.



One or more of Red Rat, Mr. Vegas or Elephant Man should also probably be on there depending on your tastes.

When I lived in Santa Fe I sat in in a Reggae band called Juice occasionally. The lead singer was a close girlfriend of my wife's. Here's the album they put out. They played around for awhile when the style was just taking foot in America.

Reggae

The social impact of reggae music has largely impacted life in Jamaica. It has also created an understanding of Jamaican lifestyle and culture for the rest of the world. It is a form of music for the masses in which their word can be heard and spoken. It is a way to celebrate their nationalism and life. Reggae music is often used by Rastafarian groups. They are usually songs about religion, love and social problems.
