Reggae came to life in the late ‘60s on the vibrant streets of Jamaica. It evolved from the musical styles of ska and rocksteady. Then there’s Bob Marley; he was not just an artist but a global icon. With mega-hits like “No Woman, No Cry,” “Redemption Song,” and “One Love,” he introduced the world to reggae’s unique sound.

His songs speak of love, peace, and social justice, often featuring those recognizable slow rhythms with a strong bassline. Reggae is more than just music; it’s a powerful voice for social change and awareness. Marley’s influence went beyond notes and melodies. He became a symbol for the Rastafari movement, a belief that shaped not only his music but also his lifestyle. And let’s be honest, reggae’s influence is still present, inspiring and evolving over the years, all around the world.
