Tems has shared a cover of the Bob Marley and the Wailers song, ‘No Woman No Cry’ as part of a three-song EP released for the upcoming Marvel film Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.Tems’ version of the 1974 original was first heard during Wakanda Forever’s recently-released trailer, but was released in full today (July 26), alongside additional soundtrack contributions ‘A Body, A Coffin’ by Amaarae and ‘Soy’ by Santa Fe Klan.Together, the trio of tracks comprise the film’s first musical offering: Wakanda Forever Prologue.
