Rasta's music : Reggae
Reggae is an African Caribbean style of music developed on the island of Jamaica and is closely linked to the Rasta, though not universally popular among its members. The origins of Reggae can be found in traditional African Caribbean music as well as US Rhythm & Blues. Ska and Rocksteady are 1960's precursors of reggae.Bob Marley, who later popularized the style on a world-wide basis, also recorded Rocksteady records early in his career. The style of reggae he made famous is called roots reggae or roots rock reggae, and is still used by many artists such as Black Uhuru, Burning Spear, Culture, Israel Vibrations, The Skatalites and Toots and The Maytals from Jamaica and UB40 from the UK.
