"Tems has been on an ascend since Wizkid's essence and I'm so happy that she's not stopping.

Didn't recognize her voice in the trailer but can get her tone here.

Of course, the legacy both Bob Marley and Chadwick leave behind is legion.

Thank you Marvel 😭😭😭😭😭"

"Will there be a "theatrical" version of this song like the one we heard in the trailer? I prefer the instrumentation in that one because the percussions in that version makes the song more tribal, more grand and overall more suited to being a tribute for T'Challa."

"Hope the Trailer Version also gets released. The one with the ambiental, violin strings, percussion and Kendrick Lamar's Vocals."

"Agreed but keep in mind the trailer mixed this with Kendrick's actual song "Alright". So there may not be a "full" version of the trailer with that as it's a whole song on its own."

"There are gonna be some legal issues with that"

"@Yggdrasil  There just needs to be a settlement between the Music Record Labels & The Artists. Given how they already have permission to use in the trailers I don't think it would be much of an issue."

"Love tems. But they could've gotten a Jamaican singer to do it. Lila Iké, sevana, noami cowan...tons of talent. Good for tems tho

"Several Jamaicans have done their own versions over the years. Marley's wanted a different and African version and Tems so happened to be a biggest female artist  in Africa at the moment. So, it's just right to do it that way. The Album itself was a tribute by Bob Marley to Africa."

"Why does is f—ken* matter who cares so far as the person is of afro descent dont think there is a problem and u do know this is a movie showcasing sub saharan African culture so it makes sense that the album should have an african artiste"

"So use Bob Marley's song covered, and instead of just asking to use the actual song, and the fact that I don't know, uh, hmm, you're profiting and killing off a character that just got thrown into the MCU."

27. Krysii Rowe
"Is Bob Marley credited for this song? Also it’s “No Woman, no cry”. As in “No woman,don’t cry “. As a Jamaican without the comma it changes the whole sentence lol. Now to me it’s sounds like “women don’t cry” or “no women cried” = In patois “no woman neva cry( no woman cried) or “woman nuh fi cry(women don’t cry )”.  It’s suppose to be conciliatory.

But that’s just me thinking into it. It’s still similar."

"Does it really matter tho most people who have heard this song a thousand times and listened to the lyrics well enough gets the message , and obviously bob was credited"

"@JON QUEEN INFO  seeing as it’s a Jamaican song and I’m a Jamaican who was raised on said song I would say it matters to me. If it does not to you that’s fine. But I’m giving my opinion on MY culture. So it matters to me.

Glad to know Bob Marley was credited because I haven’t seen anything crediting him in the film or in the video of tems singing. The title didn’t say anything about a cover. And some people on TikTok seem to think it’s an original song. If you look in the description of this video you’ll see that the only artist mentioned is Tems as well as Marvel. There is no mention of Bob Marley"

"@JON QUEEN INFO  I’m sure if it was another native language and the native of that country commented on the grammar used you wouldn’t ask if it matters. It’s common sense. And if you payed attention you’d see I’m not bashing the producers nor the artist. What I’m doing is speaking more about my native tongue and giving a bit of insight to non-Caribbean’s. I don’t see what’s wrong with that."

"Word" is a 1980s African American Vernacular English expressions which means "That's right"/ "I agree with what you just said."  "Word" was originally given as "Word to the mother" and/or "Word Up".  All of these expressions are seldom used since sometimes around the late 1990s.
