Year 2022 gave us some really tough albums and this is reflected in the playlist - not hard to find some great songs from Koffee, Protoje or Kabaka. It's hard to say if there are any new trends visible, it's rather a continuation of what has worked for the past couple of years, but there's nothing wrong with that. Good to see some major pop artists cooperating with Reggae artists - like John Legend or Jorja Smith - and good to see some veterans bringing something fresh to the table again (Tanya Stephens or even Clinton Fearon!). What can worry us all, is the lack of the new names - totally contrary to the dancehall stage - so we should keep a closer eye (or actually ear) at those who manage to break through like Jah Lil, Jah Izrehl or Hector Roots Lewis.
All in all, we concluded that this year was a good year for Reggae still. Let us convince you with this mixtape!
