Skip Marley "Let's Take It Higher" • A Boomshots Documentary

Right now in this time, we have to take this to a Higher Place" #SkipMarley
Let's Take it Higher' is a 25-minute documentary that portrays ‪@SkipMarley‬ at home during the pandemic living life just like the rest of us-washing his hands, eating healthy, exercising, spending time with family and his pet dogs, keeping in touch with loved ones via Facetime-and making music. The first-time Grammy nominee is up for two awards in 2021-one for Best Reggae Album (for his debut project 'Higher Place') and another for Best R&B Song (for "Slow Down," his hit duet with H.E.R.).
The film includes family movies from Skip's childhood, and candid interviews with many of his collaborators on the project-H.E.R., Damian "Jr Gong" Marley, Rick Ross, and D. Smoke-as well as his mother Cedella Marley, pop star Katy Perry, and very special appearances by Skip's aunt Marcia Griffiths-who toured the world with Bob Marley as a member of his backing trio the I Threes-and with Skip's grandmother, the legendary Rita Marley. There's also an interview with the members of the iconic reggae band Inner Circle, who recorded with and performed with Bob Marley in the 1970s, and who say that Skip has "nuff of Bob's vibes."
The film was directed by Reshma B and co-produced by Rob Kenner for Boomshots Media.

Skip you are the reincarnation of your grandfather the legendary Bob Marley.

It’s cute how his mother & H.E.R have similar styles.

[@rashondaclark8343]

I agree. I see a lot of similarities especially being boss ladies

[@Richard-lh3te]

You think so? I don’t really see it tbh

This kid remind me of his grandfather it's scary, if they do a movie on the great bob Marley he should be the lead actor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This didn’t age well 😂

Yesss it is very scary

Me too 😂 I keep coming back ❤️

[@goddessgoddess6790]

Omg Cedella is his mom I honestly did not know. Just knew he was a Marley 😊 My dear your son reflects the excellency of parenthood. My God ! I love you all, but there is something about this one that just gives me a sense of an edge. A bit of awe. God bless you all. All the Marley's. Quite exceptional.

[@maryannestewart2384]

It still amazes me how much he sounds like Bob but as they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Thanks for this with growth peace and love! 😊✌💚🦹‍♀️

[@haddingtoniangcp2464]

Marley genes strong!!

[@sanganoo758]

I thought I was the only one that thought he sounds exactly like Bob! It’s mind blowing!

[@samuellangrin7334]

Sounds like the younger version of bob, he like his grandfather said,dem a-guh tyad fi see mi face,but dem cyant get me out of di (human)race, his genes runs strong.

[@ciaronjohnson2066]

I literally cried

[@shahinkeller2340]

That ladies pronunciation of Toots and the Maytals made me cry 😂

[@BoomshotsTV]

Shout out to Megan Thee Stallion

[@GMLux]

I like how he spoke of wanting Toots to win instead of himself. Very unselfish talk. Sounds like some thing his grandfather would've said.

[@haddingtoniangcp2464]

Humility is a Marley trait.

[@kofiofosu9051]

He recognizes the legendary place of Toots and the Matels. As a Rasta, I believe that he recognizes that he is a descendant of Robert Nesta Marley, which literally means that he is lower than his grandfather. We are all lower than our grandfathers and grandmothers but have the potential to up rise to their examples. May Skip continue his Uprising and overcome the forces of evil that will unsuccessfully try to conquer him.

[@chefsmitty82]

True marley. For sure

[@WizardPandora]

I see a lot of his grandfather in him, beyond looks and sound. I see his heart, his wisdom, his compassion, and all of this make him the humble man he is.

[@patrickgarcia1820]

RIP..Bunny Wailer. One of the orginals.

[@valeriefullilove1031]

I love the Marley family...Skip is very gifted in his own right, his Mom and grandmother are very gifted as well.! Much love to Princess Cedella and Queen Rita!

[@rasprez]

The Marley genes are so strong. They shine through his sons and daughters alike.

[@Richard-lh3te]

The way he said why at 9:22 was so cute

[@haddingtoniangcp2464]

When Marley sang "you a go tyad fi see mi face" I felt goosebumps. So prophetic.

[@eliyathomasluvanda5101]

Nesta lives in our hearts ...he is our prophet

[@tyrenecamp]

Gwan no Uncle Bob! You Cannot get the Marley’s out of the race! They are here forever - Uncle Bob liveth in Skip Marley.

[@evonza4858]

It's not a surprise that Skip is Awesome 🥰❤️🖤💚 he comes from Brotha Bob,Mama/Sista Rita and his Awesome mom whose a combo of both her Awesome parents 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️🖤💚🥰❤️🖤💚one love to everyone especially the Marleys 🥰

[@cherrydeleon9646]

Skip you are so mindful and respectful- you honored the legacy of deep jamaican reggae music by these legends - Your Grandfather Bob and the whole gang of reggae jamaican tribes👏👏👏👏👏 Luv you my little brother Skip - Ms Cedella has done a amazing job! Don’t ever stop!!! God blessings infinitely 💫🔥

Toots s the exceptional one that brought the foundation of reggae like Bob to the world sadly missed but the legacy is undefined ❤️💛💚❤️💛💚

[@WhiteDoveSam]

I absolutely *LOVE* the family closeness, connection and continuum. *Much* *Respect* to Sister Cedella. H.E.R. delivers such a soulful, classy an original vocal sound; simultaneously she's reminiscent of Lauryn Hill vibrations. Oh, man, that duet Skip does with Sister Marcia Griffiths is *purely* & *divinely* *captivating* ! This *REALLY* is a *TRULY* *BEAUTIFUL* documentary, *THANKS* so much for sharing! Big up to Skip on his Grammy nominations!!!

Wow Rita looks incredible... This vid was a beautiful thing to see

[@user-ci1sx6yi2x]

I love how he pays tribute to his grandfather. Such a humble, handsome man.

[@tyrenecamp]

Aunty Rita Marley! Where have you been my love! We have missed you🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@sjgc08]

Sad to see Rita in a wheel chair. Respect to the whole Wailers extended family, and Jamaica as country. It's amazing to see a country of only 3 million people give the world so much spiritual guidance and inspiration through music. I've often wandered what the secret is. John Coltrane said "you can play a shoestring if your sincere" and I think that's part of it, the sincerity and belief in the power of music. Word, Sound, Power

[@kovidkidz562]

Skip is the true reflection of his own grandfather. Out of all the grandsons, Skip is the one closest to his grandfather's navel strings. He transcends BOB'S practices and principles. God bless the Marley's generations and long live the name forever, forever, and forever. R.I.P. Bob!

We need more behind the scenes! Love this!! ❤️ Love you & your fam Skip. I struggle with depression & fighting off the negativity. I love how your family embodies positive vibes and a much deeper spiritual connection with ourselves as human beings. I would love to get to that level of peace. You guys should do a video on how to find yourselves and peace and calm. That would be amazing. Keep being awesome! Shout out from the #757
