Roots 97.1 FM is born out of a passion for Reggae music. We are Nigeria’s first indigenous radio station dedicated to 70% Reggae music, located in the rocky city of Abeokuta, Ogun state.

Reggae is that style of Jamaican music that evolved in the 60s, and later became a major part of the Nigerian music genre with the rise of musical artists like Sunny Okosuns, Terra Kota, Ras Kimono, Majek Fashek, Oritis Williki, Daniel Wilson, Blakkie, Evi Edna Ogholi, Peterside Otong amongst several others. Reggae music propelled into the mainstream Nigerian music scene in the 80s and as the years progressed, songs the face of Reggae music.
