Editor's note

Jahpassô's reggae speaks to Salvador with pride

A Bahian group whose songs mix reggae with Brazilian folklore and social commentary.

For a sense of their sound, try "Cabeça Erguida" or "De Bobeira." They give you that mix of reggae rhythm and Bahian roots.

Jahpassô formed in Salvador in 2003 as friends playing reggae for their community. Their 2008 album "Raízes e Frutos" helped them reach more listeners, and tracks like "Cabeça Erguida" show how they blend Brazilian folklore with messages about pride and social issues. They've kept speaking out even when it draws criticism.

They started as Jah Band Passô in 2003, a group of friends playing reggae in Salvador. After their first album in 2008, they've continued making music that draws from Afro-Brazilian traditions and addresses inequality.
