Reggae Gold 2009
The 2009 edition of Reggae Gold is a true sampler of the many types of reggae music available to the 21st century fan. For the purists who enjoy the old school singers from the early days of reggae, the 60s and the 70s, Beres Hammond, I Wayne, and Jazmine Sullivan will not disappoint. Other tracks showcase the crossover artists who have adapted dancehall deejay toasting to the reggae beat including Elephant Man, Mavado, and dancehall star Sean Paul who contributes his cover of British R&B sensation Estelle’s hit song “Come Over”. Reggae goes gospel with Busy Signal’s “Praise and Worship” making this compilation a great choice for music fans with diverse tastes and an appreciation for the evolution of reggae.
