Comment:

If the roots sound is reggae’s heartbeat, and dub is its soul, then dancehall is surely the flesh and blood that makes reggae real enough to feel in your gut, and infectious enough to make you shake your moneymaker on the dance floor until you’re drenched with sweat. From the originators to the upstarts, from hotstepping Ini Kamoze to sassy Sister Carol, and beyond, we’ve delved into every corner of dancehall, to offer you only the most crucial tracks. So whether you want to hone in on Chaka Demus & Pliers’ killer cut “Murder She Wrote” or get the lowdown from Canadian crossover sensation Snow’s “Informer,” we’ve got you covered.
