When I was a kid I didn't understand reggae...
Now I do. Kind of.
Jamaican-English patois is cool but very confusing.
Case in point: The following cutscene from the second best GTA, GTA IV, with some Jamaicon drug dwealer talking about this ting and ting mon.
Probably the most memorable cutscene from the game.
The King of Reggae, Bob Marley:
Jamming: My favourite Bob Marley Stinson song.
and others of course: Could You Be Loved, Exodus, One Love, I Shot the Sheriff.
All the songs in Bob Marley - Legend
And others:
Max Romeo - Chase the Devil (from GTA:SA's formidable reggae station KJAH WEST)
Matisyahu: King without a Crown, One Day
A Jewish Reggae artist. SO COOL.
One Day:

Snow - Informer aka I Licky Boom Boom Down:
Damian, Bob's most prolific reggae son, has an aggressive reggae song called Welcome to Jamrock.
These are some other songs that genre mix with reggae aka pseudo-reggae:
Hip Hop & Reggae - from the Nas and Damian Marley album, Distant Relatives.
DnB with Reggae Chorus: Pendulum - Set me on Fire
The Pendulum album, Immersion, is pretty good.
House and Reggae: R.I.O. - After the Love
Mediocre-cheesy production. NVM because the vocals make the track
Pop meets Reggae:
Shaggy, of course...
LOL.
And Sean Paul...
