The World music features this week: Jah9 and Café Tacvba

The World
Jamaican reggae artist Jah9

Each week on The World, we feature a unique selection of music, and every week, we put together the highlights for you here. 

Reggae star Jah9 

Jamaican reggae artist Jah9 is a woman who embodies the title of a track on her latest CD, "Unafraid." Women have long been eclipsed on the reggae scene by men. But Jah9 is unafraid to be in that space.
