Besides its sound, reggae music is frequently associated with the common themes in its lyrics. The earliest reggae lyrics spoke mostly of love, specifically romantic love between a man and a woman. But as the music and the musicians making it made their way into the s, reggae started taking on a heavy Rastafarian influence.
Today reggae music has spurred the innovation of a whole new range of musical styles, like modern Jamaican Dub, and been infused into many other popular genres, like hip-hop and rap.
Yet still you can find bands in every corner of the world playing that authentic, roots reggae like it was when it started out in Jamaica over 50 years ago.

It's arguably the best jazz album of the year so far, and of its genre the best, making even last year's brilliant Skatalites Hip Bop Ska set, with guests Lester Bowie and David Murray, look slapdash.
For Ranglin, a quietly spoken, shy and superficially modest year-old Jamaican, it's also a return to roots. In , he cut the first album for Chris Blackwell's Island Records. Now, 38 years later, Below the Bassline is the first release on Island's Jamaica Jazz label, along with the excellent Yard Movement by Monty Alexander, who produced both albums, and on whose set Ranglin also plays.
Between these dates, Ranglin directed and played on some of Jamaica's most famous recordings, such as Millie's "My Boy Lollipop", which Blackwell brought him to London to record in , as well as hits by the Wailers and Prince Buster, and the Melodians' "Rivers of Babylon", which he arranged. Ranglin will get his due in the history books, for he's the man who virtually invented the chunka-chunka ska rhythm, and, as he let slip during our interview at Island's offices in Notting Hill, he also had a hand in slowing the music down and turning it into reggae.
Born into the rural community of Robin's Hall, Jamaica, Ranglin learnt how to play as a child by watching his uncles, who jealously guarded their guitar and ukelele. Proficient on a home-made instrument with twine strings connected to a sardine-can, he would wait until his uncles went out and then carefully tune up and practise before tuning down again before they got back. By the age of 14, Ranglin had decided "to stop playing by ear and start studying the instrument properly".
