A large number of jamming reggae EPs were released this year - many ranging from three to five tracks. A solid EP tells a story that has a listener on the edge of their seat, or at the very least maintains a compelling theme and feel throughout.

Worlds collide with our song of the Week: BRUCE MELODIE x SHAGGY - "WHEN SHE'S AROUND (FUNGA MACHO)". The reggae legend Shaggy has teamed up with one of East Africa’s biggest stars, Bruce Melodie, to create a fun and unique single. The track is a fusion of cultures blending African and Caribbean influences, melodies and rhythms.
