Punky Reggae Party

Rockbox, the weekly dance installment at the Proletariat, is getting a little help from HoustonSoReal hip-hop guru (and former Press contributor) Matt Sonzala for the Punky Reggae Party. The night will feature Austin’s Grimy Styles, a dub/reggae band Sonzala says aren’t you’re typical dreadheaded weirdoes. “A lot of the white, hippie reggae bands, they’re kind of goofy, you know? These dudes, they’re the real deal,” says Sonzala. The night will also feature Queen Majesty, a New York DJ known for her rack — ahem — of records. Her highness has an impressive collection of dancehall and reggae, and it even earned her her own program on NY’s popular East Village Radio. You can see her — and, boys, you’ll likely be glad you did — along with resident RockBox DJs Witnes and Dayta today after Grimy Styles open at 10 p.m.
