- Virginia Reggae Runners/ Walkers!
Sep 14 2008 - 9:40amThe summer season is almost over. Soon the temperature will be another reason why some of us will stay away from exercising, especially on the outside; Virginia Reggae would like to take this time to encourage you to stay physical. We agree that, “it is much easier said than done†which is why we have decided to offer you some of our time.
- Roots Reggae Queen
Sep 14 2008 - 9:09amListening to radio or depending on sound systems seem to always fail to keep you up to date with good music. You probably have already missed out on an exceptional reggae artist, hailing from St. Croix, U.S.V.I. Her name is Dezarie.
- Inna Di Newz: United Souls, VRA, Bukwi, Pink & Blue Affair
Sep 14 2008 - 8:02amUnited Souls has released a DVD called “Rise Upâ€. Apparently it was recorded by Slam (Media award winners at the 1st Virginia Reggae Awards, earlier this year). Now all we have to do is get a copy so that we can load up a clip for you to preview!!! Big tings a gwaan
- How is your Reggae scene?
Sep 14 2008 - 7:51amLike most of you, we have friends spread out all across America. Just like us, they too listen to lots of Reggae music. We all listen to other music, but Reggae is our thing. Well we got a call from one of our long distance friends last Sunday while preparing for Home Grown 2. The call was to show us love and support. A normal call from friends, except that this time, we had accepted a small challenge!
