Uthaa Jagaa! Nepali Reggae

Nepali band "Samba n The Thadi Bitos" covers Bob Marley's "Get Up Stand Up", with Nepali lyrics at certain points (Uthaa Jagaa). I don't know anything about this singer apart from what's in the video, which is nicely done.

Indian/South Asian, British Indian, Indo-Caribbean reggae artists...

Indian:

Delhi Sultanate (Taru Dalmia) - Delhi-based reggae/hip-hop artist I recently came across.

Reggae India - new Delhi reggae collective: Abood, Priyanka Singh, Raghav Dang, and Zorawar Shukla

Samba - Nepali singer. Seems to do covers of English songs (sometimes with Nepali mixed in). But apparently only one professionally recorded song, "Get Up, Stand Up", with video.

Sri Lankan:

Jayashri - I don't know very much about them, but they seem to be popular in Sri Lanka. Do they sing in Sinhala or Tamil (or both)? Austrian-based, I believe.

Asian Dub Foundation - Rap, dub, dancehall, electronica.

Some notes:

Delhi Sultanate is something I recently came across and he's pretty cool.

Requisite Apache Indian included.

Shri Ganesh se shuru kiya, of course ;)

Samba n The Thadi (or Thabi?) Bitos is Nepali - classic Marley song with some Nepali additions; he's a very nice singer, but only seems to have done one song professionally (the one included here, check below for Youtube link to video).
