Posted on by swadedavillain

It’s Easter Sunday, and it’s 420. You’re either eating Easter Bun, or smoking Weed, or doing both. Either way, it’s “Oldies Sunday“, and we have a selection for you. We go back to the 80s to check out Rita Marley’s “One Draw“.

Co-Produced with Ashley “Grub” Cooper and released through Shanachie Records/TSM Records/Rita Marley Music in 1981, it’s all about the good green in Rita Marley’s “One Draw”. The aim is to get high, and Rita needs a hit of some good Ganja to make everything right. Over some mesmerizing production, one will soon find themselves on a cloud when tuning in to this track. Rita brings the melodies throughout, and provides the right sound for those who are rolling up, puffing up, and taking flight. “One Draw” quickly became a hit for Marley, and was featured on one version of her 1980 album, “Who Feels It Knows It“. The song would go on to sell over Two Million copies, and soon became an anthem for Stoners, Weed Connoisseurs, and music lovers worldwide. The song was featured in the classic Comedy Film, “How High?” among other Films, and was sampled by Cypress Hill, Biz Markie, Psycho Les of Tha Beatnuts, Black Moon, Sizzla, and Macka B.

Since the release of “One Draw”, Rita Marley went on to release more music, continued to perform solo and as a member of The I-Threes, started a number of organizations and brands under the Bob Marley and Rita Marley brands, became a Philanthropist, became an honourary citizen of Ghana, was given the Order of Distinction (OD) and Order of Jamaica (OJ) honours by the Government of Jamaica, and received a number of awards, accolades, Degrees, and titles over the years. She has scored a number of hits over the years, but “One Draw” remains one of her greatest hits, especially during 4/20.
