Reggae came from one of ours Trinidad and Tobago.
one may be able to offer a synopsis of what reggae is but it remains undefinable as far how it makes me feel.
You guys always tell about a quarter of the story with about a quarter of it being accurate.
Sound Systems started out in the 1940s and 50s – not the 60s. Ska was an evolution of R&B not Mento.
Mento was Jamaican Calypso, the Sound Systems were playing US R&B not Mento.
So much inaccuracy that this pretty little video becomes quite meaningless. Do try a little harder please. 😂
They turn us against each other
You can’t talk about the early history of Reggae and not mention the name of Peter Tosh. I mean you can’t mention Bob Marley a d forget to mention the person who taught him the guitar🎸 . That was gross ignorance by the compiler of the documentary.🚮
3:10 Ragga never existed. Just a stupid UK phrase for Dancehall!
I really don't know a ton about Reggae. This video was super cool. Thank you!

I’ve heard a few stories over the years but can’t be sure myself, one was that Reggae came from a song by Toots called Do the Reggay,
Ok, but where did the word Reggae come from?
Glorious back beat with a bouncy rhythm 🦏😊🤗
