Nigerian reggae

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reggae is a style of Jamaican music that evolved in the 1970s. Later, it became a major part of the music of Nigeria, especially after the rise of singer Majek Fashek. Fashek was, like many Nigerian reggae performers, a part of the long-running band The Mandators. Other musicians include Jerri Jheto, Daddy Showkey, Ras Kimono and the London-based MC Afrikan Simba.
