Skip Marley pays homage to his iconic grandfather Bob Marley with his rendition of the Wailers’ classic “One Love,” out now across all platforms via Tuff Gong International/Def Jam Recordings. The video for the song was filmed in Kingston, Jamaica, alongside the adidas campaign at the Bob Marley Museum, as well as at Tuff Gong Studio, founded by Bob Marley. Check out the video HERE.
The song is inspired by and released in celebration of the adidas x Bob Marley Foundation capsule collection, available now. Skip’s rendition both upholds a longstanding family tradition and honors Bob Marley’s enduring cultural legacy, bridging generations through music, style, and message.

“Football and music, both languages of unity, run deep in Jamaican culture,” says Skip Marley. “‘One Love’ has always belonged to the people. My grandfather’s music continues to uplift and inspire people to stand for something greater than themselves. That message still moves the world today. Reimagining the song for the adidas x Bob Marley Collection is a full-circle moment for my family and I; honoring my grandfather’s legacy while connecting music, football, and culture in a way that feels true to who we are.”
As only he can, Skip brings fresh fire to this version of “One Love.” Bold horns resonate skyward as a full-bodied beat drives the track forward. Over the vibrant soundscape, Skip delivers the iconic lyrics with raw reverence — “One love, one heart, let’s get together and feel alright.” For the Marley family, the release marks a full-circle moment, passing this timeless anthem from one generation to the next while placing it in the hands of a defining voice of 21st-century reggae.
The cover arrives alongside the adidas Bob Marley Collection — an 8-piece, off-pitch apparel range designed for players and fans alike. Created in close collaboration with the Bob Marley Foundation, the collection draws from archival photographs and historically significant garments worn by the legendary artist. Standout pieces include the lilac Firebird track pants originally worn by Bob Marley while touring Europe, thoughtfully reimagined for today.
Together, Skip Marley’s “One Love” and the adidas Bob Marley Collection celebrate the enduring power of music, legacy, and style.
