Why do all reggae songs sound the same

[Caesar]

Wallahi I dunno why so many Somalis love that genre, that Jamaican music that and riddim and the rest of them, its the same rhythm guitar with a smooth bass line n slow drums with the kick n shit. That's all there is to it. U can make 1000 reggae songs with that format What is the difference with a bob marly song and a random reggae song from today. At least try and change it up, put some synth on it lol damn possibilities are endles but I feel the producers are lazy.

I listened to a few random tracks on the music channels on my tv,
it was some depressing ass singing/wailing but with a good instrumental. Where is the passion damn

I heard rumours reggae was based off of Horn of African music right, we Somalis should reclaim it and take it back, we can take over the industry wallahi, since we have all those Jamaican so raac followers in toronto and london they can take over the game and be the best jamacains and beat them at their own shit

The instrumentals are smooth and tight but the singing i hate, If i were to make a reggae band i'd get a powerful singer to carry the message and shit wallahi.
