McGregor makes bold claims, naming Buju Banton as both the “King of Reggae” and the “King of Dancehall.” Why? He credits Buju’s rare ability to excel in both genres, performing reggae one night and commanding the stage with dancehall the next. McGregor even places Buju above Bob Marley as reggae’s greatest, citing Buju’s versatility compared to Marley’s exclusive focus on reggae.

For dancehall, McGregor crowns Beenie Man as the ultimate king. His reasoning? Beenie Man’s global recognition and chart-topping hits—like the iconic Who Got the Keys to the Bimmer—have made him a household name worldwide. In contrast, McGregor argues that Vybz Kartel, despite his impact, has a more localized fanbase centered in Jamaica and the Caribbean diaspora.

This short dives deep into reggae and dancehall culture, highlighting legends like Bob Marley, Buju Banton, Beenie Man, Vybz Kartel, and Beres Hammond. If you love reggae, dancehall, and Caribbean music, this is your chance to join the conversation and weigh in on the debate!
