An EP is set to be released as the soundtrack to the highly anticipated new film ‘Bob Marley: One Love’.

Produced in partnership with the Marley family and starring Kingsley Ben-Adir as the legendary musician and Lashana Lynch as his wife Rita, the movie is in theatres from February 14, 2024.

The EP presents seven essential songs composed by the revered Jamaican reggae icon, as interpreted by contemporary stars including Nigerian acts Wizkid, Bloody Civilian, as well as Daniel Caesar, Kacey Musgraves, Leon Bridges, Jessie Reyez, and Skip Marley, grandson of Bob Marley.

The Marley family had a hand in choosing and approving all selections for the EP with five of the songs selected from Bob Marley and The Wailer’s iconic 1977 album ‘Exodus’ (1977) which has been declared RIAA gold.
