During 1970 and 1971, Wailer, Marley and Tosh worked with renowned reggae producers Leslie Kong and Lee "Scratch" Perry.
They released four albums before signing to Island Records in 1972. Two more albums were created before Tosh and Wailer left the band in 1974, citing grievances over label treatment and ideological differences. Marley carried on with a new line-up, including the I-Threes that put out seven more more albums. Marley died in 1981.
The Wailers were a groundbreaking ska and reggae group, noted for songs such as "Simmer Down", "Trenchtown Rock", "Nice Time", "War", "Stir It Up" and "Get Up, Stand Up".

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Hallelu-Jah!)
Love to see when ya move in the rhythm;
I love to see, when you're dancin' from within!
It gives great joy to feel such sweet togetherness,
Everyone doin' and they're doing their best
Huh, it remind I of the days in Jericho,
These are the days when we'll trod t'rough Babylon, (na-na, na-na)
Gonna trod until Babylon falls.
Sing your song yah!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi! ...
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi! ...
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!
We've got the herb (got it!),
We've got the herb (got it!),
We've got the herb (got it!),
So hand I the suru board,
'Cause most of all we ain't got nothing to lose. We-e-e-ey!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi! A little bit loud[er]!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!
(Jump, jump, jump, Nyabinghi!)
Love to see when ya groove with the riddim,
'Cause I love to when you're dancing from within!
It gives great joy to see such sweet togetherness,
'Cause everyone's doin' and they're doing their best.
'Cause it remind me of the days in Jericho
When we troddin' down Jericho walls!
These are the days when we'll trod through Babylon,
We keep on troddin' until Babylon falls!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!
(Jump, jump, jump,) Nyabinghi!
The lyrics of "Jump Nyabinghi" by Bob Marley and The Wailers are centered around the idea of togetherness and joyous celebration. The song is a tribute to the African Nyabinghi drumming tradition which plays a prominent role in Rastafarian culture. The song begins with a call to praise Jah or God, followed by a description of how it feels to see people moving to the rhythm with joy and enthusiasm. The lyrics then state that this is a reminder of the days of Jericho when people marched and brought down the walls of the city. This is then used as a metaphor for the modern-day struggle against societal oppression represented by Babylon. The repeated refrain of "Jump Nyabinghi!" serves as a rhythmic call to action and a way to raise the energy of the song.
At its core, "Jump Nyabinghi" is a celebration of freedom and self-determination. The lyrics suggest that by coming together and dancing with joy and purpose, people can overcome even the most daunting obstacles. This message is especially powerful when considered in the context of African diasporic history and the ongoing struggle for social justice. The use of Nyabinghi drumming and Rastafarian langauge reinforces the song's message of resistance and cultural pride.

In the 1950s, various Rasta drummers in Jamaica had developed a style of ritual music which they called "Nyabinghi drumming". It was influenced by various older Afro-Jamaican musical styles, including Burru drumming and the ritual drum styles found in religions such as Kumina and Revival Zion. The term "Nyabinghi" also came to be used to describe one of the oldest branches of Rastafari, known as the House of Nyabinghi.
