Roots Reggae Queens The Women Who Carried the Culture

Author: B.O.S.S. Radio March 7, 2026 Duration: 1:36:20
March is Women’s History Month, and today Reggae Hour celebrates the powerful women who helped shape roots reggae and carry the message of truth, justice, and Rastafari consciousness.

In this special episode, we highlight the voices of legendary and modern women whose music continues to inspire generations.

Featuring roots reggae from artists like Judy Mowatt, Queen Ifrica, Etana, Rita Marley, Marcia Griffiths, Sister Carol, and Hempress Sativa.

These women didn’t just sing reggae — they helped carry the culture, the consciousness, and the revolutionary spirit of the music.

From spiritual messages to social commentary, their voices remind us that roots reggae has always been guided by powerful women.

Celebrate Women’s History Month with us and experience the queens of roots reggae.
