Dance hall is an understated genre that has been subtly prominent in the music industry for years.Originally a type of music that originated from Jamaica in the 70's it combined reggae influences with a hip-hop style in the native tongue of  patois. The context of the songs are often fun, seductive and designed to allow people to let loose and enjoy themselves.

DJ Dub Boy sees no problems with dancehall influences hitting the mainstream, especially this year."I see it as a positive thing because if more people get to hear the music, a certain beat they like, they'll dig deeper. The longer you're involved in music, the less you care about the genre and just listen to good songs"
