Survival is a reggae album by Jamaican reggae legend Bob Marley and his band, The Wailers. It was released on 2 October 1979. Marley calls the song Africa Unite the Pan-African solidarity. Zimbabwe is a stirring anthem for the soon after liberated Rhodesia. The song was performed at the celebration of independence of Zimbabwe in 1980 by Marley, immediately after the official declaration of independence. Thus, Marley's Zimbabwe is considered the unofficial national anthem of Zimbabwe.

Survival was first called Black Survival to underscore the urgency of African Unity, but the name was shortened to prevent misinterpretations of the album theme. Marley originally planned to release Survival as the first part of a trilogy, followed by Uprising (1980 ), Confrontation (1983, posthumous).

The album was partially censored in Africa ( as the plates with knives were scratched by order of the government). The colony powers, especially Britain and France wanted to prevent with the fact that the militant texts mislead the black natives to revolts and uprisings.
