Congrats to the 2025 GRAMMY nominees for “Best Reggae Album”. 2024 has been an amazing year for reggae form roots, dub, rock, dancehall to cross genre innovation. This year’s nominees show a glimpse into reggae’s incredible diversity.

‘Evolution’ is a rich rhythmic tapestry of riddims and lyrics that encourage the essence of livity. The integration of the flawlessly impressive features, Mykal Rose, Marcia Griffiths, Emily Estefan and Gramps Morgan, who all add their own flair contributing to a diverse and enhanced audio experience.

Song of the Week: The Wailers Continue Their Evolution with Holding On.The Wailers are back with a brand new album, Evolution featuring 12 new tracks and a ton of great collabs including Gramps Morgan, Mykal Rose, and Marcia Griffiths.

The Original Wailers and Al Anderson celebrate love in the new single, “Song of the Divine”. Anderson is one of the original members of The Wailers, who gained worldwide fame with Bob Marley. “Song of the Divine” blends reggae, jazz, and soul and is the laid back song we’ve been searching for!

Ras Rebel uniquely blends his love of reggae and hip hop music and the artist’s latest single, Cali Love, is a perfect embodiment of the ‘Ragga-Hop’ style. Rebel wanted to bring new life to Dr. Dre and 2Pac’s hip hop classic and shine a light on his home state. Rebel grew up in Southern California’s Port Hueneme and teamed with E.N Young on Cali Love’s production.

For their second single release leading up to a collaborative new EP, Mike Love and Rising Tide have teamed up with reggae legend Clinton Fearon to create a wonderful new track titled Medicine Man. With their combined musical talent in full flex, these skilled musicians were able to combine horns, harmonies, complex chord structures, and inventive arrangements in a way that still allows the song to vibe as if it was simpler and more minimal. Such a feat is no easy task, but for these three artists it seems to have been done with ease.

It's a new year, and as the world has made significant steps in reopening since the 2020 pandemic, that means there are new reggae tours that we are extremely excited about! Here are some of your favorite artists that will be on tour this spring!

The Wailers and Inner Circle are headlining the upcoming Reggae Jam presented by Dubwise Miami and Inner Circle. If you live near the Miami area, or are looking to make a trip to start off 2022, this event looks like a blast!

Toots & The Maytals’ 2020 album, Got To Be Tough, won the 2021 GRAMMY Award for Best Reggae Album. The honor comes months after the reggae pioneer’s passing in September 2020. What an incredible achievement for Toots, his band, and their amazing musical legacy!
