Reggae music has been an integral part of the music industry for decades, captivating audiences worldwide with its signature sound, laid-back ethos, and positive vibes. When it comes to seeing the cream of the Reggae crop in the UK, there are few better ways to experience the magic of the genre than at Reggae Land 2023.

The festival is one of the most anticipated music festivals of the year for fans of the sun and smoke-soaked genre, which takes place at The National Bowl in Milton Keynes on Saturday 5th - Sunday 6th August, mainly due to how bloody good the lineup is. This year's bill is nothing short of spectacular, with some of the biggest names in reggae music set to take the stage and bring the heat to the already sizzling summer. 

With all this in mind, we here at Skiddle thought it would be best to let all of you lot attending in on who we think are the top five names that you can't afford to miss at Reggae Land 2023. So scroll down, get your list for the festival started, and make sure all these acts get a priority spot!

 

Sean Paul

Sean Paul, the Jamaican singer and rapper, is undoubtedly one of the most recognizable names in reggae music. With numerous hits under his belt such as "Get Busy," "Temperature," and "We Be Burnin'," Sean Paul's music is guaranteed to get you and your pals moving at Reggae Land 2023.

The iconic reggae groove master is set to headline the Sunday night, and we can only imagine the stops he’s pulling out for the spot. Basically, if you aren't there for Sean Paul, there's no point in going… he’s headlining after all.

 


 

Kabaka Pyramid

Kabaka Pyramid is a Jamaican reggae artist known for his conscious lyrics and unique sound that blends traditional roots reggae with hip-hop, dancehall, and other musical genres. His latest album, The Kalling, recently won the Grammy for Best Reggae Album, so if you ever needed a way to convince your pals to come with you to see him, you needn't say more.

With songs like "Well Done" and "Can't Breathe," Kabaka's music is a powerful call to action that will leave everyone in the Reggae Land crowd feeling inspired and energized. Whilst not a mainstream legend like many on this list, it won't be long until he is considered so, make sure to get him on your lists!

 


 

Barrington Levy

Barrington Levy, also known as the "Mellow Canary," is a Jamaican reggae artist who has been in the game for over four decades. With hits like "Under Mi Sensi" and "Murderer," his smooth voice and soulful lyrics are sure to make your heartstrings sing, and put you in a state of pure reggae bliss.

His set at Reggaeland will be a celebration of his illustrious career and one of the few opportunities you will get to see him on such a big stage. One for the fans of the classic reggae sound, as well as for the modern reggae fan to experience some history; make sure not to miss this one!

 


 

General Levy

Another Jamaican legend, General Levy, is known for his iconic track "Incredible," which massively helped popularize the jungle and drum and bass scene in the UK, and set him firmly in genre folklore. 

His unique style, powerful lyrics, and front-and-centre presence on stage make him an unforgettable performer, and we are all but guaranteed that his set at Reggae Land will be exactly the same, with everyone in the audience instilled with his energy, which will probably be a welcome break from the chilled vibes ever-present at reggae festivals. 

 


 

Alborosie

The Italian-Jamaican singer and producer, Alborosie, has made waves in the reggae scene with his unique sound and ability to blend different genres. With hits like "Kingston Town" and "Herbalist," Alborosie's music is a testament to the power of reggae music to bring people from different backgrounds together.

His set at Reggae Land looks set to promise this overpowering feeling of unity to all in the crowd, and truly channel one of reggae's key principles, all whilst getting you down and dirty in the dance, not one to miss.
