Sign in to disble this ad
I'm looking for some good, upbeat reggae or some reggae/hip-hop combination of some sort. Bob Marley is good, but I've been listening to him for ages, and it's starting to get boring. I also have been listening to Stephen and Damian Marley, Steely Pulse, and Third World. Any other recommendations?

| | | | A huuuuuuge +1 on Peter Tosh. My company is in the process of putting together a dance and a type of cover for Legalize It. Amazing: Peter Tosh is it.

You will thank me.
