Reggae music is wonderful music, and perhaps the primary inspiration for booking my first trip to Jamaica in 2013! Special thanks to musical contributors to this playlist: DJ Greg Nice, DJ Iron Mike, DJ Spinz, DJ Allday and DJ Gregg Ambient. Roots reggae is a mellower branch of reggae that has not been highlighted in this blog. The list that follows primarily focuses on ‘dancehall’ reggae that features a beat or riddim, making it easy to dance to. For example, the well-known “Murder She Wrote” by Chaka Demus & Pliers relies on the “Bam Bam” riddim from Pliers’ track “Wat a Bom.” The name of the riddim tends to be the name of the original song from which it derived. Get Busy (Sean Paul cover) Play Video stats: 1 : Hotline Bling (Drake cover) Play Video stats: 1 : Last Christmas (Wham cover) Play Video stats: 1 : Listen (Beyonc cover) Play Video stats: 1 : Lover of the Light (Mumford & Sons cover) Play Video stats: 1 : New York Raining (Charles Hamilton cover) Play Video stats: 1 : No Church in the Wild. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss top reggae dance floor fillers and our favorite reggae “riddims.” A “riddim” is a rhythmic pattern or groove that the emcee or vocalist sings over.
