We’ve all heard of dancehall and reggae greats like Yelloman, Shabba Ranks, Eek-A-Mouse and Sean Paul … but what about de wimmin? Aside from generating booty-bouncing moves on the dancefloor, what is a woman’s role in Jamaican music? QUEENS OF SOUND is the first full-length doc to explore the women of reggae and dancehall music in Jamaica. Three generations of women talk about their struggle for success in an industry and culture dominated by violence and misogyny. Musicians including Marcia Griffiths, Tanya Stephens, Sasha, Cecile, Chevelle Franklyn, Queen Ifrica, Macka Diamond and Lady G, plus women from behind the scenes.
