DancehallReggae

Mavado is a Dancehall and Reggae act. Their sound grew out of Di Genius, Buccaneer, Delly Ranks, Delly Ranx and Wyclef Jean. Those roots explain a lot about how Mavado arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Aidonia, Dexta Daps, Demarco, TeeJay and Gyptian, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Spragga Benz, Akon, Ky-Mani Marley, Alkaline and Future, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
