Special soul music from Jamaica (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ska

'music from jamaica' is the definition.
(Jamaican musical genre)

'special soul' is the wordplay.
'special' becomes 'S' (common abbreviation as in Special Air Service).
'soul' becomes 'ka' (term for the soul in ancient Egypt).
's'+'ka'='SKA'

(Other definitions for ska that I've seen before include "Noted genre" , "Music genre" , "Jamaican music, forerunner of reggae" , "Dancehall music" , "Jamaican music style" .)
