You mean like from now, today?

For me it's the same as all Jamaican music: only the older stuff sounds good. Broadly, I think of Dancehall as electronic Reggae that's not quite Dub.

Here are some good ones from the olden days

Ganja Smuggling by Eek-a-mouse


Dancehall by Yellowman


But as always, times change

To me, this next one really really sucks. Dancehall of today..
