Reggae music was formed in about 1968. In 1960s, American music engineers initiated and directed a musical expression, so some music engineers left for inspiration, and some of them came to Jamaica. Jamaica has some touring singers, so there has always been a folk flavor brewing; Therefore, the arrival of these American music engineers is an opportunity for Jamaica to improve its music standards. In addition, local musicians are brave in innovation and willing to accept foreign things, so they set the background for new music.

This kind of music, known as Scarlet Style, was very popular in the 1960s. However, in very hot summer, local people can't play such fast-paced music and dance outdoors in high temperature. Local musicians slowed down the rhythm of music and formed reggae music. The word reggae comes from "rags" and represents Jamaica's sloppy dance form.

New musical forms

In the mid-1960s, Jamaica had formed a musical form "Scar Style", which basically had the shadow of reggae, but the rhythm of this music was very fast. Later, it developed into "Rock Steady", the rhythm became slow in Bisca style, and after a change, it was integrated into "Soul". In about 68 years, "Reggae" was formally established. Speaking of the origin of this reggae name, it actually comes from the name of a street in Jamaica, which means some trivial things in daily life. The early reggae music was actually a way for a group of poor people living in the city to express their protest, so most of them wrote some social revolutionary remarks or a bunch of radical words in the content. Sometimes I really feel that the lyrics are so bitter and ironic!

However, of course, not every lyric is so indignant. Some lyrics convey justice, hope and lofty love!

Reggae is a unique Jamaican music, but it originated from R&; The direct source of reggae is Scarlet Style, which is a kind of rhythm music originated from Jamaicans living in the United States.

Reggae, like Bruce, is a kind of colorful music, which combines many musical elements such as melody rock and folk rock, giving reggae a variety of interpretations, thus becoming brighter and brighter in the mainstream field.

At the same time, BobMarley and Perry, the authoritative figures in reggae music, have an immeasurable influence on folk songs, rock and dance music, and their contributions to pop music are also enormous. Representative band: UB40, BobMarley.

In the mid-1970s, Latin American reggae music first appeared in Panama. The construction of Panama Canal introduced a large number of Jamaican immigrants who brought reggae music to this area. 1985, Vico of Puerto Rico made his first Spanish hip-hop album. These are the two main factors that affect this genre, and they are also the two main creative countries of this genre. In the early 1990s, the creation of reggae music was seriously divorced from Panama. At about the same time, the import of Jamaican reggae music became very popular in Puerto Rico.

10 years later, Puerto Ricans began to create their own riddim materials with obvious hip-hop influence, and also visited the so-called first real reggae swing album. Of course, Panama has always had its own ideas, and its booming reggae stage performance will be arranged in a few years. At that time, the influence of Puerto Rico was also strongly integrated into the local reggae stage performances.

Today, the music of the two countries is equally prosperous, and it has also been introduced to other Latin American countries, including Colombia. This kind of music is also very similar to Jamaican reggae today. They use the same basic rhythm, and many works are close to reggae style, although hip-hop style works are also very popular. The riddim used by Reggae has also been directly used by Jamaican creators, with relatively few changes. The most obvious uniqueness of this genre is that it has powerful drums from Puerto Rican genres Bomba and Plena. Whether it is Jamaican music or local music, this function is integrated into the used riddim. However, although this genre is derived, it is still being refurbished. Many excellent composers and performers have integrated their personal musical background into their song creation. Like most working-class pop music, the lyrics of this kind of music are usually about the reality, misunderstanding, injustice, love, deception and passion in the street.
