Reggae has seen a long hard road. Since the beginning, the music critics of the world have had a difficult time understanding reggae music and bringing it into its media circles. The culture that reggae and Rastafarianism produced has created certain barriers to this for a good reason I believe. Yes, this is Pop music, but their is something much heavier going on and if you want to begin to understand this music movement then you better bring a sociologist along. And then still doubt any conclusions they make.
The reggae community is complicated and unfortunately this has created some confusion in the press. Never the less, I don’t see any music that is growing the way reggae is around the world. Throughout the course of the 2 day festival Tribute to the Legends concert in San Diego, we will see many different reggae traditions being represented to a sold out crowd . Mexican-American, South American, Polynesian, European and fortunately some of the best classic Jamaican reggae will be present to legitimize the amazing vibe. I am impressed and blessed, reggae is indeed going stronger than ever in 2012.
