Skip Marley is back with a new track that hits hard and speaks louder than ever. “Cry Wolf,” out today via Tuff Gong International/Def Jam, finds the Grammy-winning singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist staking his claim as a fearless voice for justice. The song, produced by KTOE and Kardinal, isn’t just another reggae jam — it’s a call to arms against injustice, propaganda, and the systemic forces Marley calls Babylon.
Written by Marley himself, “Cry Wolf” blends his family’s signature message of unity with a modern edge, layering roots rhythms with genre-bending production. Lines like “JAH give me resilience, so we bleed no more / Clothing for the naked, Feed the hungry, Feed the poor…” hit like a mission statement, echoing through the track’s pulsating grooves. It’s the kind of song that insists you pay attention, not just listen.
The release follows last month’s video for “In Our Sight,” filmed in Marley’s birthplace of Jamaica and directed by Aka.Ruppi. That visual saw him rallying a symbolic Jah army, bringing the lyrics to life with a sense of urgency and empowerment. Marley’s message is simple but firm: strength comes from unity and standing up for what’s right. “I want you to feel not defeated. I want you to feel like all things are possible through the powers of the Most High,” he says.
“Cry Wolf” continues that trajectory, cementing Skip Marley as a young firebrand who’s carrying the torch forward while speaking for the disenfranchised. The track is available everywhere now, and it’s a reminder that the Marley name still moves with purpose — politically, socially, and spiritually.
