Reggae
Reggae is a music genre that originated in Jamaica in the late 1960s. It is a style of popular music that blends blues, calypso, and rock-'n'-roll, characterized by a strong syncopated rhythm and lyrics of social protest. It was widely perceived as a voice of the oppressed.
More on Links Rechts
On Koningsdag, a performance of the group in Breda, North Brabant, went viral as tens of thousands of spectators danced in sync to the song "Links rechts". Ground tremors from the performance could be felt in nearby homes!
Fun fact (?)
The Dutch hip-hop scene also sees many conflicts between rappers, followed by diss tracks. One of the most infamous feuds would be between T.H.C. and Lexxxus, which resulted in a fistfight on a hip-hop event, when T.H.C. frontman Rocks got into an argument with Lexxxus and then started the fistfight.
What is soft pop?
Soft pop music is a subgenre of pop music that incorporates elements of traditional pop, folk and rock. It originates from Southern California.
