In conjunction with the highly anticipated release of Bob Marley: One Love, Island Records and Tuff Gong Records have released Bob Marley: One Love (Music Inspired By The Film).

The EP features contemporary covers of essential compositions from the Jamaican reggae icon as interpreted by Kacey Musgraves (her acoustic rendition of “Three Little Birds” was released in January), Wizkid, Daniel Caesar, Leon Bridges, Jessie Reyez, Bloody Civilian, and Skip Marley, grandson of Bob Marley.

The project also features tracks from multi-platinum artist Farruko, Mystic Marley (granddaughter of Bob Marley), and NAACP Image Award-winning Jamaican singer Shenseea.

“What a blessing it was to get to be a part of such an iconic project,” said Farruko, “When the opportunity was presented to me, I chose Jamming because it is one of my favorite songs from Bob. I knew this was the one. The process was incredible because I got to sample his vocals in a song I was on. It was a wow moment for me, like if I actually recorded with THE Bob Marley!

“It was an honor to take part and that this film will show he was more than a leader, he was a prophet, someone who forever changed the music culture and who made it a priority to fight for human rights and peace and equality. I very much identify with him. He has always inspired me and we share something else so special, that island culture, it’s in our blood.”

The Marley family had a hand in choosing and approving all selections for the EP. This underscores the strong, enduring six-decade relationship with Island Records, the Marley family, and Jamaica, elements which are reflected in the movie as well.
