The History of Reggae Music

Reggae music was first started in the 1960’s in Jamaica. It is a combination of ska and rocksteady music, but the beat is a slower tempo than regular Jamaican music. It is easily recognized by the guitar rhythm.

The meaning of reggae refers to the ‘rags or ragged clothing’ worn by the musicians. Bob Marley, the most famous Reggae artist, said that the word came from a Spanish term for “the king’s music”.
