Any listen to DanceHall Reggae?
Here is video to show you some dancehall moves and have a look at the DJ, he is more than into it.

I can't say that I am really into Dancehall reggae, but I do love traditional and dub reggae styles. The Dancehall stuff does nothing for me, although I don't hate it either.
To each their own however. Let me stick with my dub though! ![]() |

Is Dancehall differentiated by this or is it just the choreographed dancers that do this? Because to me it seems fairly common for music videos to have choreography that matches what they are saying. You can't sing about being suicidal and bounce around like a monkey and be taken seriously.

I didn't see anything in the article to suggest that the dances are done to reflect the lyrics. It could be true but I would imagine they would mention it if it were a major component. That aside I do listen to dancehall reggae. Its rather nice and the idea behind it makes it easy to use when you feel like partying but not like DJing your own party. |
