Jo-Ann Greene writes about "Mind Control" AllMusic.com: "Stephen has continued to grow, adding new sounds and styles to his repertoire over the years. A conduit to the past and a bridge to the future, his music -- like his father's -- sounds timeless: reggae that embraces the world."
2004 he started the 27-city Bob Marley Roots, Rock, Reggae Festival tour with his four brothers and sons of Bob – Ziggy, Julian, Damian and Ky-Mani – each of whom have their own professional recording careers. The tour was the first time the brothers have officially performed together on stage.
Every February in Miami, Marley and his brothers perform at his family's annual Caribbean Festival in honour of their late father Bob Marley.

Let's get together and feel all right
One Love! One Heart!
Let's get together and feel all right
Singing: let's get together and feel all right. Wo wo-wo wo-wo!
Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One Love!)
There is one question I'd really love to ask (One Heart!)
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own beliefs?
One Love! What about the one heart? One Heart!
What about? Let's get together and feel all right
As it was in the beginning (One Love!)
So shall it be in the end (One Heart!),
All right!
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right;
Singing let's get together and feel all right
Let's get together to fight this Holy Armagiddyon (One Love!),
So when the Man comes there will be no, no doom (One Song!)
Have pity on those whose chances grows t'inner
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation
Singing': One Love! What about the One Heart? (One Heart!)
What about? Let's get together and feel all right.
I'm pleadin' to mankind! (One Love!);
Oh, Lord! (One Heart) Wo-ooh!
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Singing: let's get together and feel all right
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Singing: let's get together and feel all right
