Reggae is a music genre first developed in Jamaica in the late 1960s. While sometimes used in a broader sense to refer to most types of Jamaican music, the term reggae more properly denotes a particular music style that originated following on the development of ska and rocksteady.
Reggae is most easily recognized by the rhythmic accents on the off-beat, usually played by guitar or piano (or both), known as the skank. This pattern accents the second and fourth beat in each bar (or the "and"s of each beat depending on how the music is counted) and combines with the drums emphasis on beat three to create a unique feel and sense of phrasing in contrast to most other popular genres focus on beat one, the "downbeat". The tempo of reggae is usually felt as slower than the popular Jamaican forms, ska and rocksteady, which preceded it. It is this slower tempo, the guitar/piano offbeats, the emphasis on the third beat, and the use of syncopated, melodic bass lines that differentiates reggae from other music, although other musical styles have incorporated some of these innovations separately.

Genres: Drama,I think that you've been mistaken
I think last night you were so uncool
I think that you point your finger
Because you've got nothing better to do
It's not your life
Why must you criticize?
Learn how to free your mind
You may find
You free up something that you lost inside
You heard the word, thought you'd spread it
You heard it hurt so you whispered it to
All the people who were begging for it
You took her thoughts and colored them blue
Man it's such a trip because old school we used to kick it
But now Drip hangs around and annoys just like the hic up's
'cause the story is always the same
You got something burning
In the back of your brain
Anger eats, defeats, and depletes
Keeps us going backwards on a one way street
Our emotions always seem to leave us blind
I fear that we've been mistaken
I heard last night you were so damn cool
I guess that we point our fingers at you
