Roots (Reggae)
Roots Rock is a genre of music that came out of Jamaica and the American South, being born through artists like Bob Marley and The Wailers. Its main focus was on the spirituality and revolution of blacks, which is known as Rastafari by their followers. Roots rock is sometimes considered to be the precursor to rock music in general since it incorporated reggae, blues, jazz and other forms of African-American music in its composers.
