Also known as raggamuffin, is a subgenre of dancehall in which the instrumentation primarily consists of electronic music and sampling. Ragga is often used as a synonym for dancehall reggae, but more typically it is used for dancehall with a deejay chatting rather than singing on top of the 'riddim'.

According to some sources, the term ragga is not used in Jamaica. However, in Europe and the US it is more popular than dancehall.

The birth of ragga in Jamaica occurred contemporaneously with the rise of electronic dance music in the Western world at large. Electronic music proliferated rapidly through the 1990s and ragga was no exception, revolutionising reggae music. One of the essential reasons for ragga's swift propagation is that it is generally easier and less expensive to produce than reggae performed on traditional musical instruments. Ragga heavily influenced early jungle music and also spawned the bhangragga style when fused with bhangra.

Ragga continues to flourish and evolve, constituting the bulk of contemporary reggae music production.
