Reggae fan stripped for a start (5)
I believe the answer is:
rasta
'reggae fan stripped' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'for a start' is the wordplay.
'RASTA' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I'm not sure how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rasta that I've seen before include "Jamaican believer" , "Member of WI religion" , "Sectarian of Jamaican origin (colloq.)" , "Black man" , "religious believer" .)
