    Damian Marley has encompassed a large variety of genres in his music; he has been known to use "toasting", a Jamaican predecessor to rapping. He is, however, labeled as a Reggae artist and his albums are on the chart as Reggae albums.

    What do you think? Do not base your vote on anything other than how you think his music sounds. If you choose "other" please specify what genre it is and why you think that way.

    Oops, I spelled Other wrong. I know.

    Reggae, because, well...I dunno, i just can't call him a rapper when he's a Marley. No matter how ofter he raps or "toasts" it's still reggae for me.
