Stepping Razor was my ? on Scarface back for the ps2 way back haha.
Good tracks -
so true. saying can you recommend some raggae would be like somebody outside the states saying "share with me some American Black music"
you would have dozens of genres over the last 80 years to cover! same thing with Jamaica. small island that puts out more music per square inch than anywere in the world!
I like the Marley/Tosh stuff of the 70's but really love the Dancehall of the 90's!
Buju Banton, Super Cat, Capleton. That was my ? , they remixed them with Hip Hop beats and that tore the club up!There is different types of reggae and subgenres my dude

2 strokes and being albino couldn't keep Yellowman down.
herb session in progress. peace. -
I would go ahead and cop some basic collections...there's a ton of Bob Marley/Wailers collections. Two of the most popular are Natural Mystic and Legend...be out for a minute. But you will probably want to invest in the box set (if you can find it). If you want to go back and learn from the beginning you need the Wailers, ? and Maytals, Jimmy Cliff. Check out Third World, The Israelites, Steel Pulse. Morgan Heritage, Luciano, Buju Banton, Garnett Silk, Tony Rebel will also give you a good foundation. This is going back a good 15-50 years in total, but it will help you understand and appreciate the music even more.
You might also want to look up certain "rasta language" on the net to get a better idea of what they're talking about....things like "downpression" vs "oppression," "overstand vs. Understand" "irie" "ital" "fire burn" "reasoning" "nyahbinghi" and a lot of other aspects of rastafari culture that will come up over and over.

There's a lot you could start with. I have liked Reggae a long time. I started with getting mixes with all different artists. It's not all just Bob Marley, there's a lot of sick reggae. I like Third World, Gregory Isaacs, and Shaggy is always good.

You got Bob Marley, Catch A Fire.. that's the best album to start off on but also check out Madlib's Medicine Show Number 4.. It's a mix of roots and dub. The best you'll ever hear period so don't bother with any other mixes/best ofs/collections yet

And these are my top 3 favorite reggae tracks of all time. Good luck!
