About this album

Uprising stands as one of Bob Marley & The Wailers’ most affecting late-period albums, balancing political urgency with stark spiritual reflection. Released in 1980, it was the final album issued before Marley’s death and shows his songwriting at its most direct and elemental. Produced by Marley and the Wailers with Chris Blackwell, the record moves from the buoyant pull of “Could You Be Loved” to the stripped-back gravity of “Redemption Song”, where acoustic clarity gives the message added force. Its mix of social commentary, faith and resilience has made it one of the group’s most enduring and widely regarded albums.

Genre: Reggae
