Probably the best, and possibly the only real, way to understand what reggae sounds like is to listen to the music.

Below is the Wikipedia link to reggae, a music genre which originated in the Greater Antilles island, Jamaica, in the Caribbean Sea. This article contains links to other sites with more information about reggae.

Also below is a link to YouTube, where you can watch and listen to many examples of reggae.
