  1. Snoop Lion's 'Reincarnated' out April 23; documentary lands in March

  5. Five reggae jams that blow away Snoop Lion's new 'No Guns Allowed'

    On Wednesday morning, the artist also known as Snoop Dogg unveiled the newest work under his reggae pseudonym, Snoop Lion. The rapper from Long Beach announced last year that he’d decided on both a new name and style of music he’d be making for the foreseeable future, and was working on a documentary,  "Reincarnated," about his shift toward righteous reggae positivity. Snoop Lion started wearing Jamaica’s national colors of yellow, red and green -- and started referring to his herb of choice as "ganja" instead of "chronic."

  7. Review: 'Reincarnated' gets personal with Snoop Lion

    First he was Snoop Doggy Dogg, then simply Snoop Dogg. Now, 20 years after the release of his debut single as a solo artist — the still-vibrant "Who Am I (What's My Name?)" — the laid-back rapper from Long Beach has altered his identity once again. And this time he's changed his sound too: Next month, Snoop Lion is to release a full-on reggae album called "Reincarnated," the product of an extended trip he and his crew took last year to Jamaica.

  11. Review: 'Better Mus' Come' ties Cold War to Jamaica gang war

    Ricky (Sheldon Shepherd), the hero of Storm Saulter's ambitious coming-of-age drama "Better Mus' Come," is a man for all seasons. Gangster, community leader, part-time poet, full-time dad, Ricky negotiates the dangerous complexities of the culture of violence inflaming Jamaica in the late '70s, uncertain what path he should take.

  21. Out of the Blue: Support for the music

    Laguna Beach should be celebrated as a music colony — especially for world-class reggae — as much as an art colony. It started back in the late '70s, when Laguna native Eric "Redz" Morton was 21 and gigging as the bassist in a L.A. Latin...

  23. Jamaica Kincaid talks about 'See Now Then'

    On the surface of her first new novel in a decade, the vaguely autobiographical, startlingly ambitious "See Now Then," author Jamaica Kincaid seems to tell a simple story about a New England family that is falling apart. Mr. Sweet, a musician and composer, turns out to hate his wife, a writer known only as Mrs. Sweet, and their children, Persephone and Heracles. But just beneath the surface is a much larger, even cosmic meditation on the nature of time — as Mr. Sweet puts it, "the seeing of Now being Then and how Then becomes Now."
