Ras Reggae Music Video Collection
RAS Records was started in 1979 through the mind of Doctor Dread. Quickly outgrowing the basement of his home where RAS began, Doctor Dread's vision grew by leaps and bounds to become the prominent distributor of reggae in America. In the early 80s, the RAS label made significant developments in reggae by signing such acts as Black Uhuru, Don Carlos, Inner Circle, Culture, Junior Reid, Yellowman, J.C. Lodge and Freddie McGregor. In 1988, RAS became the force that reunited Israel Vibration, who, to this day, are a major force in reggae music. RAS has always been interested in exploring the positive aspects of the music and culture of Jamaica and has shown a diversity and an innovation in reggae which is totally unique. In these times where dancehall has dominated the reggae scene, RAS has come forth with positive proponents of dancehall styles in the likes of Luciano, Sizzla, Tiger and Tony Rebel. Never one to be a follower, RAS has always looked to new ways to bring the music to more people and to expand the music
