From Jamaica to the UK, throughout Europe and across to the USA, you'd be hard pressed to find a female behind the controls. Then we have Melbourne, boasting a vibrant scene of women representing the reggae/dancehall scene.

Funky hip hop reggae mix

I'm really stoked that this one got featured on the Funk Hunters mixtape dig at www.ghettofunk.co.uk
It's not quite my usual style, but it's still got some reggae mashups in the mix
"Melbournes “Sista Sara” is up next with a smoked out funky reggae mix featuring a nice tune selection! If you’re into funky reggae mashups, this one could easily be an iPod staple for the summer!"
