Chained To The Rhythm, Katy Perry’s song with Skip Marley, debuts at number four on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Released February 10 by Capitol Records, Chained To The Rhythm is co-written by Marley, Perry and Sia Furler. It is co-produced by Max Martin and Ali Payami.

This is the first time that a song featuring a Marley has made it in the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100.

Chained To The Rhythm entered the UK pop chart last Friday at number seven. It is the first song featuring a Marley to make that table since 1999 when a remix of Sun Is Shining, credited to Bob Marley vs Funkstar De Luxe, reached number three.

Chained To The Rhythm is also on charts in Australia (number four), nine in New Zealand, six in the Czech Republic, eight in France, 10 in Ireland, 20 in Germany, 12 in Switzerland, and five in Scotland.

Bob Marley made the UK pop chart eight times. His sons (Ziggy, Stephen, Ky-Mani and Damian) are yet to do so as solo artistes.

Ziggy Marley and The Melody Makers had three entries on the UK pop chart – 1988’s Tomorrow People (number 22), Tumblin Down (number 84) that year, and Look Who’s Dancing (number 65).

In the US, Bob Marley only charted once on the Billboard Hot 100. Roots Rock Reggae stalled at number 51 in 1976.

Damian Marley reached number 55 in 2005 with Welcome to Jamrock, while Ziggy Marley and The Melody Makers reached number 39 in 1988 with Tomorrow People.
