One Drop (Bob Marley & The Wailers song) One Drop (Bob Marley & The Wailers song) "One Drop" is a 1979 Bob Marley song from the album "Survival" (1979) notable for exemplifying the one drop rhythm, one of the three main reggae drum rhythms, as performed by The Wailers' drummer Carlton Barrett. The song uses Marley's most militantly Rastafarian lyrics.(). "In 'One Drop,' Marley asserts that he does not want 'devil philosophy' he wants the 'teachings of His Majesty.' In this sense Rastafari was not merely a religious faith, for Marley it was a political and philosophical worldview." The song was re-released on the compilation album "Gold" (2005).
