  2. What is Reggae? • Reggae is a style of music that originated in the West Indies in Jamaica. It usually consists of repeated riffs by the bass. In reggae music the emphasis is placed more on the offbeat. The music itself has a pretty simple structure. Sometimes a song can have no more than 2 chords played in it. The lyrics in reggae music cover a wide range of topics such as love, faith and even poverty. Bob Marley is one of the biggest reggae singers and song writers.
