Skip Marley Drop Visuals for ‘Close’

The reggae star is back with another song produced by Rykeyz.

Grammy-nominated artist Skip Marley has returned with the music video for his latest single, “Close.”

The new record is produced by frequent collaborator Rykeyz, who also produced Skip’s history-making RIAA gold #1 global hit “Slow Down” with Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter H.E.R. 

“It’s modern, but it pays homage to Maxi Priest. I loved the idea of bringing this great song to the new generation,” the singer said of the new track. “On one hand, I’m reminiscing about a girl. For me,

there’s a bigger meaning too. The song hints that I’m back and about to begin another chapter.”
