Before i thought it was just British slang for dancehall, however I was djing at a party playing dancehall and a few people were coming up requesting more bashment to get people dancing, could it be the dancehall i was playing was more digital sounding if that makes sense. I was playing like snap back riddim lost angel riddim buzz etc

thanks for the feedback, appreciate it. I always called stuff like marley lucky dube lovers rock etc reggae and refered to the digital music as bashment or dancehall as in same thing and ragga if it was the harder mid 90s stuff like bounty, beenie, scare dem etc. The newer riddims dont have so much the 'rough vocal' and dark sound which i understand to b 'ragga' however certain artists can still make a more commercial sounding riddim like overproof sound ragga like aidonia's cut. An example of what i see as a modern ragga beat is kartels bend like banana.
