What an amazing year for reggae! 2024 saw the rise of some amazing artists and bands. Here are our nominees for the 2024 Daily Reggae Rising Artist of the Year!

This week’s SOTW comes from the recently released self-titled debut album by the Dukes of Roots; “Stick with Love" is a beautiful collaboration between the band and legend Stephen Marley.
True to their name, the track is grounded in roots music, but the band pushes towards a modern and unique sound featuring dueling vocal melodies and electric guitar.

Daily Reggae caught up with Dukes Of Roots to learn about the band’s inspiring roots reggae music, song writing process, and new album in the works.

Dukes Of Roots’ new single “Try Happy” will immediately put a smile on your face! The band collaborated with Natiruts on the chill track in Brazil and it’s the perfect song to lift your spirits any time of day.

Dukes of Roots and Tarrus Riley celebrate the power of reggae while honoring Toots Hibbert in an amazing cover of Toots & The Maytals’ classic, “Pressure Drop”. The single released by Migration Records x YoungPow Productions is the debut single of Dukes of Roots. The reggae community continues to mourn the loss of the reggae founder and legend, and this collaboration would make Toots super proud!
