Reggae is a music genre first developed in Jamaica in the late 1960s. While sometimes used in a broader sense to refer to most types of Jamaican music, the term reggae more properly denotes a particular music style that originated following on the development of ska and rocksteady.
Reggae music originated from Jamaica around the late 1960s. The genre was popularized in the 1970s and 1980s by artists such as Bob Marley and Peter Tosh.
