Yeah, BDP was always favorites of mine and much thanks to the reggae influences KRS had on his flow.
You can find many of the reggae-samples at samplefaq.cjb.net (I think it has changed adress now though ... thebreaks.com or something?).

It works, it's
www.the-breaks.com . Here are the few reggae based samples by BDP (there are probably more, but the-breaks.com is far from a complete datebase, especially when it comes to reggae, the emphasis is on soul/funk/jazz where the majority of hiphop samples come from).
Section 5. Reggae
Brentford All-Stars
A Better Dub: (Studio One ?)
* "Greedy G"
Boogie Down Productions - "Jack of Spades"
Skatalites
?: (Studio One 1964)
* "Man in the Street"
Boogie Down Productions - "Edutainment"
Yellowman
Zungguzungguguzungguzeng: (Shanachie 1983)
* "Zungguzungguguzungguzeng"
Boogie Down Productions - "The 'P' is Free"
Boogie Down Productions - "The 'P' is Free"
If you're interested, you can also check out other reggae artists/songs that have been sampled in hiphop, just click on "reggae" on the left.

Off the top of my head:
On the "live hardcore worldwide" album they also use the backing tracks for Shelly Thunder's "kuff" and Frighty & Colonel Mite's "Life (is what you make it)"
KRS also produced Sly & Robbie's "Silent Assassin" and some of Shabba Rank's tracks for his albums on Epic.
