September 2007 - Burning Spear and
Mutabaruka are both well-known for spreading
their Rastafarian message.
In the year 1982, Rub a Dub music was the most
popular form of Reggae. But definitely not the

Deep Roots Reggae was well represented by Burning
Spear and was -in spite of preterists who like to
