The rocksteady flow of reggae music continues to inspire listeners today. In 2023, this deep and steady rhythm was at the heart of one memorable release. The riddim’s smooth bass and classic reggae beat made it stand out, reminding fans of the roots that shaped the genre decades ago. This sound, both timeless and fresh, brought together artists known for their dedication to reggae’s message. Luciano is one of these artists. With his song "Jah Is Always There," he added a powerful voice to the riddim.
