ragga-reggae
Last updated:
Description
Ragga-reggae blends traditional reggae's rhythmic foundation with the digital, dancehall-influenced sound of ragga, featuring rapid-fire DJ-style vocals over electronic beats and synthesized rhythms. Emerging from Jamaica in the late 1980s, it brought a grittier, more urban edge to reggae while maintaining its conscious lyrics and cultural roots. The style emphasizes energetic delivery, heavy bass lines, and production that bridges classic reggae's warmth with modern dancehall's intensity.
