Day two of Reggae Hour Salute continues with a crown-heavy session dedicated to the women who shaped reggae culture from the inside out.
We open with Rita Marley – Who Feels It Knows It, a reminder that reggae truth has always lived in women’s voices — whether history chose to amplify it or not.
From there, Mr. E and Zai-O-Nya hold space for a powerful conversation on Women in Reggae — honoring the pioneers, the culture bearers, and the modern torch-carriers who never waited for permission.
This episode gives flowers to women who: • Spoke spirituality when the industry pushed silence
• Held roots culture steady through every era
• Made space for the next generation to rise
This is not a side note in reggae history — this is the history.

From the studios of B.O.S.S. Radio, Reggae-Hour offers more than a curated selection of music; it's a weekly immersion into the living culture that gives the sound its profound meaning. This podcast connects the rhythms of ska, lovers rock, and roots reggae to the broader narratives of social justice, Rastafarian thought, and the historical journeys of the African Diaspora. You'll hear conversations with artists who carry the tradition forward, alongside detailed explorations of the stories behind pivotal songs and movements. The aim is to provide context and connection, examining how the messages of peace and I-nity within the music resonate with contemporary global struggles. Tune in for a purposefully crafted blend of history, interview, and melody, where every episode is designed to deepen understanding of reggae not just as a genre, but as a continuous call for awareness and unity. It's a space for listeners who feel the heartbeat of the bassline and want to understand the soul behind it.
