Exodus Riddim – Tuff Gong

Exodus Riddim is centred on Bob Marley & The Wailers’ 1977 composition “Exodus,” the title track from the group’s landmark Exodus album. Released during a defining period in Marley’s career, the song’s call for movement, freedom and spiritual return has remained one of reggae’s most recognisable statements.

This page is a reference guide to recordings connected by the “Exodus” title, musical lineage or later Jamaican reinterpretation; it is not an original multi-artist release issued in 1990. The selections span different periods of Jamaican music. They include earlier adaptations of “Exodus,” Bob Marley & The Wailers’ 1977 recording, and later works such as Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley’s “Move!,” which draws on his father’s “Exodus.”

For that reason, each entry should be understood in the context of its own artist, release date and label. Together, the recordings show how a powerful musical idea has travelled through ska, roots reggae, dub and later reggae generations, while retaining the cultural weight associated with the word “Exodus.”
