Everyone agrees that Bob Marley provided the world with incredible, powerful and evocative music that spanned nearly two decades. This music remains timeless and universal, a sound that has lasted through many generations. The Wailers & Bob Marley have built a place for themselves in the very fabric of our lives.

When were you first introduced to "So Much Trouble," "Dem Belly Full," "Redemption Song," "Waiting in Vain," "Turn Your Lights Down Low," "Three Little Birds," "Buffalo Soldier," "Stir It Up," "Jammin’" and "One Love?" When was the first time you heard them?

A new lease of life will be breathed into selected classics by Afrobeats artists through their interpretation of Bob Marley's greatest hits.

There is no doubt that Bob's discography has always permeated African societies, inspiring generations to come. Marley has profoundly impacted music, something that cannot be denied. Countless contemporary musicians have acknowledged their admiration for the reggae pioneer.

Artists including Nutty O, Winky, Rema, Ami Faku, Teni, Oxlade, Tiwa Savage, Afro B, Sarkodie, Ayar Starr, and Patoranking reinterpret songs that are meaningful to the audience. It is clear that Bob Marley continues to have an influence and is still an inspiration to the artists we see today.

There is one purpose for Africa Unite, and that is to showcase the delicious collaboration that occurs when Caribbean and African cultures reunite once more.

Bringing Bob Marley back to life is a meaningful way to honor one of the most charismatic and challenging performers of all time.
