There style was more Capleton, Sizzla and on that vibe. Still good though. I will try to get the name if I can remember. There is an underground reggea culture here, you just have to dig. Keep making vibes.

Hey Lu,
El Batey or Batey Cero? Is this the group you are talking about?
YouTube - Batey Cero
I wish I would have known about that concert. I am always hearing about events after the fact, unfortunately.

Would have loved to hear some local live reggae!
The underground reggae culture, must be really underground here because I did a lot of digging and asking and couldnt find what I was looking for. Guess I never bumped into any Dominican Rastas. Now that would have been interesting!
