That's kind of like asking for the best ROCK song ever.
Off the top of my head:
Rock Steady -- Desmond Dekker -- Israelites
Dub -- Black Uhuru -- Dub of Englington
Lee Perry -- Police & Thieves
Roots -- Peter Tosh -- Brand New Secondhand
Culture -- See Them Come
Dancehall -- Ini Kamoze -- Jump for Jah
-
Legalize It by Peter Tosh

Lively Up Yourself - Marley

GGW and I are clearly both reggae dorks, so I'll see what I can do...
Dub â??
Bunny Lee/King Tubby & The Aggrovators, "This Is The Hardest Version"
Lee Perry & The Upsetters, "Callying Butt Dub"
Dub (vocal) â?? Linton Kwesi Johnson, "Five Nights of Bleeding"
Roots â?? Burning Spear, "Marcus Garvey" (definite candidate for alltime best)
Rocksteady â?? Heptones, "Babylon Falling"
