Best US based reggae songs
Post up your favorite track - the one that exemplifies the absolute best of the best. Show me what I'm missing...
For me, my ear gravitates toward the works of Skillinjah. He has the best flow and style that I have heard from any of them.. He can touch a dancehall riddim better than most.

The Ruts
Following a conversation on r/roots reggae about Misty in Roots and the historic, brutal police racism in the UK.. punk and reggae had become something of a team by the late 70s. This is the Ruts' tribute to Clarence Baker, another innocent victim of that violent prejudice. https://youtu.be/4z_7oEG4Gvg?si=BaiTPenUDvsHZKF3

What are your favorite “chopper” songs?
Idk if chopper is the right word in this context, but like songs where they’re rapping/singing super fast. A couple of my favs are “give dem some way” by Damian Marley and “ninja mi ninja” by ninjaman.

Lacksley Castell
I’ve been jammin out to Reggae for 30+ yrs now and know all the greats and been to many Bob Marley festivals, concerts, etc. But Lacksley Castell was a musician I haven’t come across until recently. A few months back. And I cannot believe how much his music freaking jams. The beats, lyrics and his voice are so unbelievable. So sad he passed at a very young age. But if you get a chance, search him up and jam out. You won’t be disappointed. RIP Lacksley Castell. Ty for your music!
