"'Ingen sommar utan reggae'" is a Swedish song by Markoolio written by Johan Fjellstrm, Joakim Hillson and Nicklas Ternedal. Taken from Markoolio's album 'Vrsta plattan', the song was recorded in "The Living Room Studio" and was produced by Empire Music Production.

The single, a popreggae tune inspired by Bob Marley, released in April 2007 topped the Swedish Singles Chart for 5 weeks, staying in the Top 5 for 14 weeks and in the Top 60 for a total of 22 weeks. It has been certified double platinum in Sweden.

The single contains two tracks:

*"Ingen sommar utan reggae" (3:48)

*"Ingen sommar utan reggae" (instrumental) (3:48)

Although hugely popular with the young as well as older listeners, the song came under consistent criticism for its lyrics believed to glorify alcohol and encourage its consumption in great quantities (known as binging) with suggestive lyrics like "dricka hemkrt och cola, i en uppblsbar pool" (drinking moonshine and cola in an inflatable pool) and "frsta vita helgen, jag tror jag dr" (in my first white/sober weekend, I believe I'm going to die).
