From Harlesden to Ladbroke Grove to Notting Hill, Reggae was channelled, produced, championed, and developed by lovers of the genre and motivated listeners with sounds from home.
The music expressed the creativity and culture of Jamaica and the Caribbean communities – it brought people together, and revolutionised relations. Reggae continues to make its mark as one of the most popular music genres.
