Jamaica is the home of reggae, but that doesn’t mean it’s the only hotspot.

The UK and Sweden, both with significant Jamaican immigrant communities, are countries in Europe where reggae draws particular attention.

One DJ making major waves in Sweden is Million Stylez, who performs “Inna Di Dancehall.” This track is one of his signature songs, pairing a simple riddim with stylish vocals.

It’s both sleek and easy to groove to, so be sure to use it as BGM for your reggae dance sessions.

NG HEAD, the king representing reggae in the West.

A genius boasting an undefeated record in sound clashes, he’s known for overwhelming live performances, as his track record shows.

NG HEAD has created numerous classics.

Among his works, a track I especially recommend is “Na, Na, Na, Na.” Unlike his clash style, it’s strikingly upbeat and bright.

Perfect for big-gesture reggae dance routines.

PETER MAN is a reggae musician from Osaka who has been active since the 1990s and, since 2010, has been affiliated with BUSH HUNTER MUSIC, led by RYO the SKYWALKER.

The classic track by PETER MAN and TAK-Z is “Brapa Pan Pan feat.

TAK-Z.” It’s a dub that uses the riddim from “Rakuen,” and instead of PETER MAN’s signature authentic Jamaican reggae, it’s crafted as a catchy Japa-reggae tune.

JUMP UPRAY

RAY, a singjay from Sakai, Osaka, has gained popularity with his catchy musical style.

Many of you may know him from his recent success in the MC battle scene as well.

Among his works, the track I especially recommend is “JUMP UP.” While RAY has many uptempo songs, this one stands out with particularly fiery vibes.

It’s a fantastic track that amplifies the appeal of reggae dance.

Be sure to check it out.

NEW DAY-ORANKIN TAXI

RANKIN TAXI – NEW DAY-O [TAK-Z DUB - Good Woman, Fine Woman Riddim]
NEW DAY-ORANKIN TAXI

Songs by Rankin Taxi, a leading figure in Japan’s reggae scene, energize listeners with their bouncy rhythms and positive messages.

Released in 2002 on a Jamaican label, this work is characterized by the vibrant beats of digital reggae.

True to Rankin Taxi’s commitment to addressing social issues, it likely weaves in insights on everyday life.

If you’re unsure what to listen to on your day off, this track is a great pick—perfect for women who want to enjoy some me-time and feel free-spirited.

Even though you haven’t even done itRAY

He’s a guitar-playing vocalist and reggae musician—something that’s becoming rare even in Jamaica, the genre’s homeland, especially among younger people.

I was surprised to find a young reggae musician who performs reggae with just an acoustic guitar in this day and age.

He sings about living true to yourself so you won’t have any regrets.

Rytikal, a DJ from Jamaica known for his stylish flair.

His style that blends hip-hop elements into dancehall is hugely popular among young people in Jamaica right now.

Among his works, the track I especially recommend for reggae dance is READY.

It’s a piece that layers heavily reverbed vocals over a riddim mixing trap and dancehall, resulting in an overall cool impression.
