J.C. Lodge

There aren't a whole lot of female Reggae artists out there; there are even fewer that have had chart success, and still fewer that can be called superstars. J.C. Lodge is among the lucky few who've been able to take Reggae -- albeit tempered by Soul, R&B and Pop -- and get the attention of people that, when in search of new music, are only willing to travel as far as their radio dials turn. Having taken so many genres to the factory and flattened the layers into a sleek, new, palatable product, Lodge isn't a purist's delight; nevertheless, she has a voice that's pure and flowing.
