That's interesting. I find that idea pretty hard to argue with. I'm not saying "all reggae sounds the same" (though it is a very style-consistent genre), but I find the general atmosphere is that of "the people" more often than a specific person's journey, experience or introspection etc.

I gotta admit, I'm a little bit confused .......... sometimes it seems to me, as if I just couldn't give a bar of soap for him......
Once upon a time, a friend (my arch nemesis these days ) had an album called Kaya (if memory serves me well) and I just didn't see what was so 'hip' about it ???

'Eh..not my thing' , but there are several tracks I have heard over the years that are decent and most of my listening of his music was back in the 70's.

It's very strange, because I enjoy many reggae bands, including the Wailers on Serge Gainsbourg's (Gainsbourg + reggae were made for each other ! ), but Marley the "nr1" is one of the rare reggae singers I really don't like !
