A Jamaican Christmas – Reggae Carols

Christmas in Jamaica wouldn’t be the same without our spin on traditional carols. Here are two versions of The Christmas Song. The first by one of my favorite performers, JC Lodge, The Christmas Song, the second by Beres Hammond, The Christmas Song. JC Jamaicanized the lyrics a bit.

Hope these will help put you in the mood for a little Reggae Christmas. Happy Holidays!
