This article discusses the arrival and consolidation of reggae in São Luís. It appears that São Luiz is the territory outside Jamaica where the musical genre is most successful, having incorporated by its population, mainly by blacks, a series of particular habits during the appropriation of Jamaican reggae, in this way, the regueiro of São Luís created unique bonds with Jamaican rhythm and that relationship endures to the present day. These aspects contributed to São Luís being conceived as 'Brazilian Jamaica'. The objective of the research is to analyze the relationship between reggae and the population of Ludovic, its particularities and symbolism. As a result, it was identified that the relationship between society and reggae existing in São Luís has singularities, which express historical, cultural, racial and resistance aspects.
