Reggae Loves Africa
Celebrating the kinship and inspiration that Africa has provided to reggae music, some of the genre’s greatest voices are gathered on Reggae Loves Africa to pay tribute.
Themes of liberation and repatriation are at the heart of reggae music. The rhythms of Africa are at reggae’s deepest roots. Africa’s history and its modern day struggles have served as subject matter on some of reggae’s most memorable songs.
Favourites from the VP/ Greensleeves catalogue are presented here including Beres Hammond & Freddie McGregor for all people of the diaspora; conscious reggae with a message of uplift and hope.
