Ska and rocksteady are both Jamaican Music Genres that emerged in the 1960s, sharing common roots in rhythm and blues, jazz, and Caribbean music. Ska is characterized by a faster tempo and upbeat rhythms, often featuring offbeat guitar strums and prominent brass sections. Rocksteady, which evolved from ska, has a slower tempo and a more relaxed groove, focusing on bass lines and vocal harmonies. Both styles laid the groundwork for reggae music, highlighting themes of love and social issues.
