“Get up, Stand Up” just got the remake treatment by American singer Nakkia Gold.
The militant anthem by Bob Marley and The Wailers was sampled by Gold for her latest single, “Justice (Get Up, Stand Up).” The track features Grammy and Golden Globe Award-nominated rapper Wiz Khalifa.
Gold commented that Black and minority communities in the United States continue to face inequality, systemic racism, and a long, painful history of violence.
“The struggle has made us strong. This is the moment to break through the chains of social injustice. This song is a call to action in a time when it’s needed the most,” she said.
