He also discusses reggae's global expansion, noting that today's audiences span Europe, Eastern Europe, and beyond, proving that Bob Marley's vision of reggae reaching the world continues to unfold. Now touring internationally to promote his 2025 album “Thy Will Be Done, "Davis remains both a steward and a participant in reggae's ongoing evolution.
