Yes India with a population of over 1.2 Billion people,
home of Bhangra music and Bollywood movies shares a musical passion with
reggae which we pleasantly found out recently. A great example of the
power and energy that reggae music has in the sub-continent of India
Meet "Reggae Rajahs" India's first and premiere sound system, the trio
consists of Diggy Dang, Mr Herbalist and DJ MoCity (Iraq's first
sound boy) all are reggae entertainers and promoters based in New Dehli
their dances are big crowd pleasers.
So
when last Olympics Puma wanted excitement to launch its Faas shoe line
behinnd world record holder Usain Bolt it was only natural to feature
reggae music and so who did they call....... Reggae Rajhs.
The
promotion was throughout New Dehli's and Bombay's major malls and as
you will see it was in a Jamaican style with the whole sound system and
dancers
Some of the dancing probably
not dancehall, more like hip hop but a little cultural leniency is
allowed and it is all done in maad respect, the girls seem to have the
right idea.
Also here is another feature on the Reggae Rajahs and a brief background
on how they got started and their love for reggae music .....maaaahd
respect
