Skindred, a Welsh band blending heavy metal with reggae and dancehall, released Nobody on their debut album Babylon in the early 2000s, and it quickly became their signature track. Benji Webbe's ragga-style delivery over downtuned guitars gave the song a sound unlike most metal of the period, helping it reach listeners beyond the usual metal audience. Over time it has endured as a crowd favourite at live shows and a staple of workout and hype playlists, which is why short clips of its chorus keep appearing in online edits.
