Skip Marley, the grandson to the all-time reggae legend, Bob Marley, has informed all his music fans and stakeholders that he will be taking a pause on his much-anticipated tour tagged ‘Change.‘ His Change Tour started kicking on the 21st of September and was supposed to run till the end of October with visits to various cities around the United States including Massachusetts, New York, Washington, DC, California, and several Southwestern states before ending in Vermont.The Grammy-nominated artist took to his Twitter social handle an update regarding the Change Tour cancellation citing health concerns brought on by his Covid-19 contraction. He wrote:“I was feeling under the weather yesterday and unfortunately I have tested positive for COVID. To keep my tour family & my fans safe I am very sorry to say I need to postpone the rest of the Change Tour.”In spite of the above statement, Skip Marley also shared words of hope;“I’ll announce new dates as soon as we can. One Love. Rastafari Lives,” he said.https://twitter.com/SkipMarley/status/1579138949809078276?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1579138949809078276%7Ctwgr%5E7d126f21c378739e0d994c04d044420ee5887472%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Furbanislandz.com%2F2022%2F10%2F14%2Fskip-marley-recovering-from-covid-halts-tour%2FThese announcements came weeks after Skip Marley’s denial of entry into Canada due to the Country’s Covid-19 regulations.On the day of the Change Tour debut, thus the 21st of September, the reggae music prowess was not allowed entry by Border Agents after seeking entry at the Peace Bridge in Fort Erie. It was an unfortunate turn of events since his first performance had to kick off in  Toronto.He wrote, “Unfortunately this time we’ve been turned away but we’re looking forward to rescheduling right at the Toybox. Once again I want to apologize to all the fans. We tried and we will keep on trying but we gon keep on trying until next time so everyone can look forward to that but as of now the rules are the rules…until then one love,” on Twitter.To shade more light on the disappointments, the artiste shared immigration papers he received that had detailed reasons for his denial.The country is open to vaccinated international travellers, but those who aren’t fully vaccinated are required to meet an exemption or be travelling for a “non-discretionary purpose” before they are allowed into the country, a requirement that Skip did not meet.
