If you like reggae, it goes without saying that you know Bob Marley.

This is one of his famous songs—he’s a guru-like figure who spread reggae and is revered as a legend.

The vibe and beat match the feel of a hot country.

Give it a listen when you want to relax.

Reggae BusFire Ball

Fire Ball’s classic track “Reggae Bus” really nails those quintessential reggae elements.

Listening to it will definitely make you long for summer and want to head to the beach as soon as possible.

The beach and reggae are a perfect match.

NATURAL WEAPON / PARTY TIME (STEP UP RIDDIM)【MV】
Party TimeNatural Weapon

A reggae artist whose easy-to-understand word choices and uniquely original angle set him apart, traveling from scene to scene across Japan and rapidly rising in popularity.

This track is a hit from the Osaka Senshu area—Japan’s fiercest reggae battleground—where outdoor dances with massive stacked speakers blasting thunderous sound are the norm.

A tune that starts with Rayli’s sweet vocals, DELI’s thick delivery, and a crisp introduction from Asian Star.

I think it really captures a Tokyo-style reggae vibe.

There’s no doubt it’s a stylishly executed dancehall anthem—no doubt about it.

When people in Japan think of reggae, many imagine Japan-reggae that grew out of Jamaica’s dancehall or Bob Marley’s reggae.

But it’s different around the world.

Even in Jamaica, the birthplace of the genre, the blend with hip-hop has intensified, and recent Jamaican charts are topped by dancehall tracks that are very close to hip-hop.

“Loyalty” fits perfectly with this current trend: it’s a dancehall track packed with trap elements.

It’s a sophisticated song that mixes great groove with a stylish vibe, so be sure to check it out.

KSWD775

Female DJ 775 from Kishiwada.

She’s one of the most talked-about female DJs right now, and her skills and stage presence are truly eye-catching.

Among her works, the track I especially recommend is KSWD.

It’s themed around Kishiwada, her roots, and crafted as a dancehall tune with strong vocal elements.

The riddim is serious, yet it carries a subtle freshness, making it a great match for reggae dance.

When it comes to reggae hotbeds in Japan, many people probably think of Osaka and Yokohama.

However, Aichi Prefecture’s scene has been heating up lately as well.

Among the artists drawing particular attention is KonG.

He’s still a young artist, but he’s already proven his skills and has performed at dances hosted by BANTY FOOT and RED SPIDER.

His standout track, “Sore wa Yabai,” is a high-voltage banger delivered in rapid-fire style.
