Bussin’ a lime with DJ Miss Kitty
This week on Cause and Effect:
DJ Miss Kitty will trace the evolution of early reggae, ska, rocksteady, and dub — the sounds that shook Jamaica and echoed across the world. From Kingston studios to UK dancehalls, we’ll explore how these rhythms inspired generations, defined culture, and shaped modern music. Tune in for a musical lineage of migration, rebellion, and invention!
