Reggae-Hour

Before remix culture. Before electronic music. Before producers were artists. There was King Tubby. Born January 28, 1941, in Kingston, Jamaica, Osbourne Ruddock would become the quiet engineer who taught the world to listen differently. In this special Reggae Hour podcast episode, we journey through his life, legacy, and revolutionary impact on reggae and Jamaican music history. This is not a rushed biography. This is a deep cultural meditation. We explore the golden age of Jamaican sound systems, where the mixing board became an instrument. Through carefully placed King Tubby dub selections, we trace the birth, invention, and global echo of dub music — an echo that still vibrates through hip hop, electronic music, and global sound culture today. Listen closely. Stay present. Let the sound breathe. 🎶 EPISODE STRUCTURE & TRACKLIST 🔥 Opening Invocation African Fire Dub — King Tubby 🎛️ Act One: The Birth and the Silence Before Sound Cumberland — King Tubby & Ring Craft Posse Smile — King Tubby & Ring Craft Posse ⚡ Act Two: The Revolution When the Board Became an Instrument Tan Good — King Tubby Dub Take Five — King Tubby Faith in Dub — King Tubby 🌍 Act Three: The Echo That Crossed the World Zion Dub Original — King Tubby Dub on Upper 1st — King Tubby Dubbing My Baby (Original) — King Tubby 🕯️ Closing Vibes & Meditation Jam Rock Spirit Love You — King Tubby & Kevin MacLeod Psalm 92 This episode is narrated through the voices of Zionya and Mr. E, and produced by Reggae Hour — where history is heard, not rushed.

When the drum goes quiet, the world listens. This special Reggae Hour tribute episode honors the life, discipline, and global legacy of Sly Dunbar — one of the most influential rhythm architects in music history. Alongside Robbie Shakespeare, Sly helped shape reggae into a language the world could understand — without ever losing its roots. From Kingston studios to global stages, from analog roots to digital futures, Sly’s drumming taught us that rhythm is responsibility. In this one-hour episode, Mr. E and Zionia reason through: Why discipline mattered more than flash in Sly’s playing How Sly & Robbie carried reggae across borders without dilution How the torch is now being carried forward by new and international artists — including the Africa–Caribbean connection that keeps reggae alive This is not an interview. This is a reflection. A reasoning. A musical journey guided by the drum. 🎶 Featuring a carefully curated Sly & Robbie set that lets the music teach where words fall short. 👉 Read the full memorial article here: 🔗 https://www.reggaehour.com/202... 👉 SUBSCRIBE for more deep reggae history and cultural reasoning 👉 LIKE & SHARE to honor Sly Dunbar’s legacy 👉 COMMENT with your favorite Sly & Robbie track or memory Stay locked.

Studio One changed music forever. But history doesn’t tell itself — people do. In this special episode of Reggae Hour, we reason through the legacy and controversy surrounding Clement “Coxsone” Dodd, the visionary producer behind Studio One. Celebrated as the architect of Jamaica’s most influential label, Coxsone built a system that launched global sounds — but also one that left many musicians unnamed, unpaid, and unheard. This episode explores power, authorship, and silence in early reggae history. We move from the birth of the sound system era, through questions of ownership and control, and into the music that defined a generation. This is not cancellation. This is completion. 📖 Read the full companion blog for deeper context: 👉 https://www.reggaehour.com/202... 🎧 Listen as a podcast on Reggae Hour Available wherever you get your podcasts. 🎶 TRACKLIST (AS PLAYED) I'm Still In Love With You-Alton Elliss, ASPO Matthew Mark-Toots and the Maytals Where’s the Girl for Me-Bob Marley and The Wailers I’ve Got to Go Back Home- Bob Andy Created By The Father- Dennis Brown I Was Born a Free Man- Al Campbell, Freddie McGregor The New Boss- Slim Smith (All Skatalites music hereafter) Freedom Sounds Guns of Navarone Ska Boss Police Woman Fuera de Mi Vida You’re Wondering Now 📣 CALL TO ACTION If you care about reggae history beyond the surface level: 👍 Like the video 💬 Join the discussion in the comments 🔔 Subscribe to Reggae Hour for the full story behind the sound Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reggae-hour--2646280/support. 🌍 Roots.

When the storm hits and Babylon goes cold, where do you find your fire? In this special winter edition of Reggae Hour, we aren’t just playing music — we are reasoning on resilience. As snow, power outages, and cold winds sweep across the world outside, Mr. E and Zionya (Daughter of Zion) dig deep into the crates to uncover the sounds that have kept the people warm for generations. From Prince Buster facing the long winter of 1960s England, to the modern spiritual armor of today’s Winter Soldiers, this episode traces how reggae has always been more than music. It has been a fireplace for the diaspora — a source of heat, unity, and strength when the physical world turns cold. This is a story of migration, survival, sound systems, and inner fire. A reminder that even when Babylon freezes, the spirit does not. 🔊 IN THIS EPISODE The History: How Caribbean migrants survived the winters of the UK, U.S., and Canada The Reasoning: Why warmth is both physical and spiritual The Music: A carefully curated journey through Rocksteady, Roots, and Dub 🎶 FEATURED MUSIC (All Rights Reserved to the Artists) Prince Buster – Long Winter (The Foundation) Venice Beach Dub Club – Winter Soldiers (The Struggle) Malika Madremana – Lion in the Winter / Let Mi Lion Roam (The Strength) Giant Panda Guerrilla Dub Squad – Ginger Juice (The Healing) Plus more selections designed to melt the ice 🎙️ ABOUT REGGAE HOUR Reggae Hour is the heartbeat of reggae culture — preserving history, honoring the elders, and reasoning through sound.

Roots. Discipline. Testimony. This is not a hype interview. This is testimony. In this powerful episode of Reggae Hour, conscious reggae artist Blaz’em (Christopher Hale) sits down for a rare, unfiltered conversation about a 15-year journey rooted in Rastafari, discipline, and truth. Raised in a Caribbean household and guided by elder Rastaman dem, Blaz’em embraced Rastafari at just 14 years old — not as an image, but as a way of life. In this episode, he speaks openly about mistakes, accountability, spirituality, and why conscious reggae still matters in a world full of noise. You’ll hear Blaz’em reflect on:As Blaz’em puts it: “Reggae is not entertainment. It’s testimony.” This episode is for the seekers, the rooted, and anyone who still believes music can uplift, correct, and liberate. 🔥 If reggae ever spoke to your soul, this conversation is for you. 🎧 WHERE TO LISTEN Listen now on iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, and ReggaeHour.com 🔔 Subscribe for more conscious conversations and roots-driven culture 💬 Leave a review or comment and tell us what this episode stirred in you 🌍 STAY CONNECTED WITH BLAZ’EM 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/christopherhale123/?locale=zh_CN ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQF526Y108wb7R5EUgL05XA/about 🔗 AFFILIATE SUPPORT (FTC DISCLOSURE + DISCOUNTS) Note: This episode description contains affiliate links.

The Seal We open Episode 14 of Reggae Hour Salute with Tasha T – The World Is Trouble, a sobering roots anthem that sets the tone for reflection, clarity, and truth. From there, Mr. E closes out Reggae Hour Salute with a heartfelt recap of the past three days, honoring the music, the reasoning, and the spirit that carried us through this journey. Over the three-day experience, we reasoned on:This episode is not just an ending — it’s a seal. A reminder that reggae is more than sound. It is memory, resistance, healing, and prophecy.

Religion, Royal Bloodlines & Spiritual Reasoning We open Episode 13 of Reggae Hour Salute with the powerful Mystic Revealers anthem “Religion”, setting the tone for a deep, respectful reasoning session. In this episode, Mr. E and Zionya explore one of the most misunderstood conversations in reggae culture and Rastafari thought: the spiritual relationship between Jesus Christ and Emperor Haile Selassie I. This is not debate for debate’s sake — this is context, history, scripture, and vibration. We reason through how faith, divinity, liberation, and African identity intersect, and why reggae has always been a vehicle for spiritual questioning outside of Babylon’s rigid frameworks. After the discussion, the music carries the message forward — roots, upliftment, reflection, and soul. This episode is for the thinkers. The seekers.

We open Episode 12 of Reggae Hour Salute with the timeless anthem “Jah’s Glory” by Third World, setting the tone for a deep and reasoned discussion on the divinity, legacy, and spiritual significance of His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I. Mr. E and Zionya explore why Haile Selassie remains central to Rastafari philosophy, African identity, and global liberation thought — separating myth, faith, history, and cultural impact with respect and clarity.

We open Episode 11 of Reggae Hour Salute with the powerful and grounding anthem “Freedom” by Aza Lineage, setting the vibration for a deep and necessary reasoning on Babylon systems — how they operate, how they shape culture, and how conscious people learn to see through them. Mr. E and Zionya break down Babylon not as a buzzword, but as a lived reality — touching on social conditioning, economic pressure, spiritual distraction, and the importance of awareness, discipline, and community. From there, we move into “Nineveh” by Redeemm, a song that reinforces accountability, warning, and reflection — before letting the rest of the music carry the message forward. This episode blends roots, dub, fire band energy, and conscious lyrics, delivering food for the mind and vibration for the soul. 🎶 Full Track List (as played) Aza Lineage – Freedom Redeemm – Nineveh Tasha T – Bed of Fire Don Dada – Loyalty Runkus – In Addis Ababa (Dub) 9 Sabo feat.

Day Three of Reggae Hour Salute opens with a firestarter from Don Dada – Forward off his Forward We Continue EP — setting the tone for a deep, necessary conversation. In this episode, Mr. E and Zionya take a bold stance on one of the world’s hardest truths: the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the growing call for justice and peace. This isn’t politics — it’s principle. It’s about humanity, freedom, and the oneness reggae has always stood for. Zionya and Mr. E reflect on how reggae has forever carried the message of the oppressed — from Africa’s liberation movements to Jamaica’s cry against Babylon, and now, the world’s plea for peace. After the talk, the music continues the reasoning — unity riddims, righteous harmonies, and the timeless echo that says: “One Love means all people.” Tune in for healing, culture, and roots vibration that still dares to speak truth to power. 🎶 FULL TRACKLIST (FROM IMAGES + OPENING SELECTION) Forward – Don Dada Precious World – I Threes West Indies – Koffee X – Chronixx Virtuous Woman – RickyDan the Barber aka D Dan Concrete Jungle – Judy Mowatt Almighty Father – Lion Heart Why Can’t We Be Friends – Predator Dub Assassins Free Africa – Kleva Roots (Produced by Oga Henz) Set Jah People Free (New Mix) – Redeemm Good Ole Vybz – KQualiti Tempted to Touch (Live 1Xtra in Jamaica 2019) – Beres Hammond Man A Bad Man – Lady G 🔗 AFFILIATE DISCLOSURE (FTC COMPLIANT) This episode of Reggae Hour Salute contains affiliate relationships that support the show. • Zeevo Life — Reggae Hour may earn a commission if you shop wellness and plant-based vitality through zeevo dot life using promo code REGGAEHOUR for a discount.

This episode of Reggae Hour Salute opens with a foundation stone: Burning Spear – Marcus Garvey. From there, Mr. E and Zionya step into one of the most important conversations of the entire series — Africa reclaiming itself. We break down the recent African coups, with a focused look at Burkina Faso and the leadership of Ibrahim Traoré, examining what self-determination looks like in real time when nations reject colonial control and economic extraction. The conversation connects African liberation directly to Jamaican independence, Garveyism, and Rastafarian consciousness, showing how reggae has always been the global messenger for these movements. This is not hype. This is history moving forward. The music that follows carries that same revolutionary spirit — roots, resistance, and reason — reminding us that reggae has always documented the fall of Babylon long before headlines caught up. 🎶 FULL TRACKLIST (FROM IMAGES + OPENING SELECTION) Marcus Garvey – Burning Spear Culture Brown – Move Up (Album: Go Dehaug 2025) I Appreciate Dads – Ecspedition Loyalty – Don Dada Give Me Long Days – Blazem Rasta (Aire State Riddim) Is This Love – Bob Marley & The Wailers Amsterdam Everywhere I Am – Cheezy and the Crackers Love Is the Answer – Iyah Angel (Jah SoulJah Riddim) Sick for Love – King I Music Focus Herbs – Stoneface Priest (Medi Riddim) Inna Yard – Anthony B We Can Do Better – Sizzla In Addis Ababa (Dub) – Runkus 🔗 AFFILIATE DISCLOSURE (FTC COMPLIANT) This episode of Reggae Hour Salute contains affiliate relationships. • Zeevo Life — Reggae Hour may earn a commission if you choose to support your wellness journey through zeevo dot life.

Day two of Reggae Hour Salute continues with a crown-heavy session dedicated to the women who shaped reggae culture from the inside out. We open with Rita Marley – Who Feels It Knows It, a reminder that reggae truth has always lived in women’s voices — whether history chose to amplify it or not. From there, Mr. E and Zai-O-Nya hold space for a powerful conversation on Women in Reggae — honoring the pioneers, the culture bearers, and the modern torch-carriers who never waited for permission. This episode gives flowers to women who: • Spoke spirituality when the industry pushed silence • Held roots culture steady through every era • Made space for the next generation to rise This is not a side note in reggae history — this is the history. 💚 Affiliate Note: This episode is supported by Zeevo Life.

Day two of Reggae Hour Salute continues with a powerful meditation on reggae fashion as culture, resistance, and identity. This episode opens in roots fashion with Lee “Scratch” Perry – King of the Animals, then Mr. E and Zionya step into a conversation about how reggae fashion has never been about trends — it’s about truth, ancestry, spirituality, and self-definition. From African garments to Rasta symbolism, from handmade expression to colors that speak louder than words, this segment breaks down how reggae fashion moves as a living archive of liberation. The music throughout the episode reinforces that message — roots first, message always. This is fashion with meaning. Music with purpose. Culture without compromise. 🎶 FULL TRACKLIST (FROM EPISODE 7 IMAGES) Plough More Seed – Amicomeblaq Ethnonice – Ethnonice Culture Brown – Move Up (Album: Go Dehaug 2025) Iyah Angel – Love Is the Answer (Jah Sojulah Riddim) I Appreciate Dads – Ecspedition Twists and Turns – Kasaka Try – Emynenx Got to Be a Better Way – Mystic Revealers Heavenly (Rev 2) – Iyagrade Africa Forever (Mixed) – Iyagrade Track 13 – Unknown Artist Raving Fete (Soca) – Lionheart aka Pluxx 🔗 AFFILIATE DISCLOSURE & SUPPORT LINKS (FTC COMPLIANT) This episode of Reggae Hour Salute contains affiliate relationships that help support the show.

The spirit of conscious reggae never rests. We open this episode with Marcia Griffiths – All My Life, a reminder that reggae is not a moment — it’s a lifelong mission. From there, Reggae Hour Salute turns its focus to the other reggae festivals around the world that continue holding the line for roots, culture, and message-driven music when major stages go silent. In this conversation, we reflect on how gatherings beyond the spotlight — community festivals, independent sound systems, and grassroots events — keep the culture alive year after year. These are the spaces where conscious reggae is protected, amplified, and passed forward. This episode also features a powerful playlist spanning generations and regions, highlighting artists who embody resilience, upliftment, and global unity through sound. Reggae doesn’t depend on one stage. It lives wherever the people gather. 🎧 Tune in, reason with us, and keep the vibration moving forward. 🌿 SUPPORT THE SHOW This episode is supported by Zivo Life.

When stages go quiet, the message doesn’t. In this Reggae Hour Salute episode, we tap into the true spirit of conscious reggae — the kind that lives beyond festivals, beyond hype, and beyond trends. Inspired by the legacy of culture-first gatherings like Rebel Salute (with no official affiliation), we break down why the music matters more than the moment.

Rebel Salute was never just a stage show — it was a statement. In Episode 2 of Reggae Hour Salute, we break down what Rebel Salute truly represents, why it became one of the most respected cultural gatherings in reggae history, and why its absence in 2026 left a real void in conscious music. Starting with Mystic Revealers – “Blue Nile”, the episode sets the tone for a deeper conversation on roots, culture, and standards. Mr. E and Zai-O-Nya unpack how Rebel Salute stood firm against slackness, hype culture, and commercial pressure — choosing instead to uplift message music, spiritual grounding, and lyrical integrity. We talk about: • Why Rebel Salute rejected party-first programming • How it became a sanctuary for conscious reggae • Why the festival mattered globally, not just in Jamaica • And why Reggae Hour stepped in — not to replace it — but to hold the space while the culture heals after Hurricane Melissa This episode is about preservation, intention, and responsibility. If you ever wondered why Rebel Salute meant so much to artists, fans, and the wider reggae movement — this is the episode that explains it. 🎶 Music featured includes selections from Mystic Revealers, Culture, Tony Roy, Ras Oneilly, and more — rooted, militant, and timeless. 📅 Reggae Hour Salute continues January 15th–17th with underground roots reggae you likely haven’t heard before — straight from the source. 🔔 Follow Reggae Hour on your favorite streaming platform 🌍 Visit ReggaeHour.com to stay locked into the culture 🎧 Talk Segment Summary (for show notes / timestamps) Topic: What Rebel Salute stood for, why it mattered to reggae culture, and why Reggae Hour felt compelled to fill the space during its recovery period.
