Reggae Music is Taking Over the Radio in 2017

Reggae music is becoming more popular than ever before, and 2017 is shaping up to be a big year for the genre. Here’s why reggae is taking over the radio this year.

Reggae music is becoming more popular

Reggae music is becoming more popular on the radio with listeners in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. More than ever, people are searching for reggae songs on the radio and streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music.

There are many reasons for reggae’s newfound popularity. For one, the genre has always been popular in Jamaica, where it was started in the late 1960s. Reggae’s popularity has also grown in other parts of the world, including Africa, Asia and Europe.

In addition, reggae music is often seen as a symbol of peace and love. With the current political climate, many people are looking for music that will make them feel good and inspire positive change. Reggae music does both of those things.

Finally, reggae music is just plain fun. It’s perfect for summertime barbecues, beach parties and road trips. Whether you’re relaxing at home or dancing at a club, reggae music is sure to put a smile on your face.

If you’re not already a fan of reggae music, now is the time to start listening. You’re sure to hear a lot more of it on the radio in 2017.

Mainstream radio stations are beginning to play more reggae songs

In the past few years, there has been a increase in the number of mainstream radio stations that are beginning to play more reggae songs. This is likely due to the growing popularity of the genre, as well as the fact that many reggae artists have begun to crossover into the mainstream.

One of the most popular reggae songs of 2017 is “Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran. The song, which was released in January of this year, quickly rose to the top of the charts and has since been nominated for several Grammy Awards. Sheeran is not the only pop artist who has been incorporating reggae elements into his music – Justin Bieber’s hit song “Sorry” also has a heavy reggae influence.

With mainstream radio beginning to embrace reggae music, it is likely that we will see even more crossover success from artists in the genre in the years to come.

Reggae artists are getting more recognition

Reggae music is having a moment in the mainstream. Reggae artists like J Boog, Chronixx, and Protoje are putting out chart-topping hits, and reggae is becoming more popular on radio stations across the country.

This surge in popularity is thanks in part to the success of Jamaican artist Chronixx, whose album Chronology debuted at number one on the Billboard Reggae charts in 2017. His single “Likes” was also a top ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100, making him the first reggae artist to achieve that feat in over two decades.

Other reggae artists are also finding success in the mainstream. J Boog’s single “Let’s Do It Again” peaked at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100, and Protoje’s single “Who Knows” featuring Chronixx was a top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100.

With more and more reggae artists finding success in the mainstream, it’s clear that reggae music is taking over the radio in 2017.
