Talk:Rocksteady
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I was wondering, can we really say rocksteady is a successor of ska? I mean there were two more waves of ska after it. Would it not make more sense to say it was developed from ska? Also, I don't agree with ska nd rocksteady being subgenres of reggae as it came after!
Yes, rocksteady is successor of ska. As in ska stylistically evolved into rocksteady during mid 60s, and then later rocksteady evolved into reggae. From there it diverges into dub and dancehall and other subgenres. What I'm trying to say that rocksteady is the successor to ska in the history of Jamaican music: that's perfectly accurate.
