Get the Reggae mug.Reggae is a music genre first developed in Jamaica in the late 1960s.
While sometimes used in a broader sense to refer to most types of Jamaican music, the term reggae more properly denotes a particular music style that originated following on the development of ska and rocksteady. Reggae is based on a rhythm style characterized by regular chops on the off-beat, known as the skank. The tempo is generally slower than that found in ska and rocksteady. Reggae usually has accents on the 2nd and 4th beat in each bar, there being four beats in a bar.
Reggae is often associated with the Rastafari movement, an influence on many prominent reggae musicians from its inception. Reggae song lyrics deal with many subjects, including faith, love, relationships, poverty, injustice and other broad social issues.

Get the Reggae mug.Style of music very similar to normal reggae, but with the guitar/keyboard striking on the downbeat instead of the traditional upbeat. Popularized by new wave/punk bands like the Police in the 80's.

Get the 100% Reggae mug.reggae is a decent form of music, and people insult it all the time. What the real problem is is that people are unaware of what is really reggae and what isn't. any loser can quote bob marley but here you go
bands that are reggae: bob marley, the wailers, gregory isaacs, etc.
