Only YouJah Cure

Jamaican reggae musician Jah Cure.

His appeal, I’d say, lies in those emotional melodies sung with his raspy voice.

What’s truly remarkable is that he created music while in prison and even released an album.

Words and music born from a life most people will never experience—why not lend an ear to his reggae, too?

Police And ThievesJunior Murvin

This song, Police & Thieves—titled in Japanese as “ポリスとコソ泥” (Police and Thieves)—is a classic reggae track from the late 1970s performed by reggae singer Junior Murvin.

Above all, its distinctive feature is his high-pitched vocal style.

The music itself is outstanding, but perhaps it’s the historical elements expressed in the lyrics that are one of reggae’s true appeals.
