Did Bob Marley REALLY play the original Bad Boys?

Question

The song Bad Boys:
Was it originally played by Bob Marley, or by some other artist?
(To settle a long running debate between myself, my girlfriend, and a mutual friend)

Answer 1

Do you mean Bad Boys from the Cops tv show?

No, Bob Marley NEVER did this song.

It was done by the reggae band Inner Circle.

Answer 2

No, it is Inner Circle. Marley passed on in 1981, 6 years before the release of the song, and he had no connections to it.
