Third World

Reggae
Reggae

Third World is a Reggae act. Their sound grew out of The Wailers, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, Terror Fabulous and Wayne Wade. Those roots explain a lot about how Third World arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Steel Pulse, Aswad, Dennis Brown, Gregory Isaacs and Wailing Souls, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Heavy D, Ce'cile, Danakil, Raging Fyah and Damian Marley, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 49 connections around Third World, reaching back through The Wailers and forward to Heavy D.
