The current number one reggae album is Roots Passion by Benjah.  

https://www.billboard.com/charts/reggae-albums

Here's a video from that album.   (Sounds more like disco than roots music.)




And the title cut (with all kinds of we-can't-play-our-instruments-so-we-twist-knobs-and-distort-the-sound like hip hop).




Alright.  I've gotta find something better to share.  Time to explore.

Just stumbled across the Buju Banton Long Walk To Freedom livestream from Kingston.   Sanchez is on stage now.  

Time to party!!!




Now it's Etana. Christopher Martin. Romain Virgo.

Firemon if you find anything of Buju onstage I sure would appreciate having a look at that
His son must be the distraction he speaks of. Sad

It's only 10 pm in Kingston right now so it'll probably be awhile before Buju takes the stage.  Agent Sasco is performing now. 
Gotta think it's going to be a loooong show.

Buju is being escourted to the stage at the 4 hr 5 min mark after which there's a great drone shot from above showing just how expansive the concert venue was.  I swear I had no idea how popular Buju was in Jamaica.
Scene looks like an event people will be talking about for the rest of their lives much like the One Love Peace Concert.

Here's an even better aerial view at 1:20.


Ive been catching up online, it looks fantastic, what an atmosphere

Buju has always been popular, I know loads of people who went from the U.K. and US

We were gutted we couldn’t go as we had trip already booked only returned a couple of weeks ago so work commitments couldn’t allow

Will be catching up on Buju and beres now
