<p>Buju Banton and Bounty Killer. If you are into a somewhat newer reggae sound. Also, Pato Banton was pretty good back in his day.</p><p>Albums:&nbsp;</p><p>Bounty Killer - Ghetto Gramma</p><p>Buju Banton - Til Shiloh; Voice of Jamaica</p><p>Pato Banton - Never Give In</p><p>On the ska side, you might like The Specials and English Beat&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
