Try Collie Buddz, he is a white raggae singer from Bermuda. Very good in my opinion!

if you like real reggae music like Bob Marley you should also try Dennis Brown, The Might Diamonds and Luciano. Not really reggae /more like modern dance hall but good would be Sean Paul and Shaggy.

this is a little more modern reggae, but the "Born Jamericans" are pretty good.

I consider this to be my favorite music genre.

For traditional reggae:
Barrington Leavy
Black Uhuru
Burning Spear
Steel Pulse
Toots and the Maytals


A couple must have's are:
Greagory Isaacs
Peter Tosh
Jimmy Cliff

Those last three are absolute must haves for any reggae collection.

More new era reggae artists i like include:

Ritchie Spice
Damian Marley
Collie Budz
Sean Paul
Elephant Man
Shaggy



those are all of my favorites. Get them and I dont think you'll be disappointed.

Dennis Brown and Gregory Isaacs, if you have a lady with you.

Peter Tosh, Jimmy Cliff standards.

Black Uhuru, Burning Spear, Steel Pulse have been around forever, hit or miss, IMO. Some awesome, some so-so.

I always enjoy Ziggy Marley.

Big Youth's A Luta Continua (The Struggle Continues) is one of my favorites.

Marley's 4 CD Box set is a good buy. You'll hear songs you've never heard before (probably), and they're arranged chronologically.

Check the racks/search for reggae compilations. When you find a song you like, buy the album and other albums from that artist.

Avoid Dred Zeppelin. It's a 300 pound Elvis impersonator who does/did reggae versions of Zeppelin songs.
