Bob Marley Appreciation Thread
The only role model I ever had is Bob Marley... The only person I ever respected enough to model my life after...
Bob Marley is a champion and the definition of a free human being.. I love this dude (no homo) one love
Revolution
Thought I'd make a thread for Bob ... Love respect..

Re: Bob Marley Appreciation Thread
I am a Bob Marley fan. He made some amazing music.
But fill me in, other than smoking hella weed and making good music, what else did he do to make you look up to him and want to model your life after him? I genuinely don't know him as anything but a musician and a bud smoker.

Bob wasnt just a weed smoking music maker... He was an inspiration.. he got shot trying to bring together 2 opposite parties vying for power in Jamaica.
He was really about that FREEDOM and if you listen to what he says in his songs?
you will understand the depth of the struggle that the underclass has to endure.
here is a video detailing his concert in jamaica where he risked his life of some political bullsh*t

not only did he get shot he performed 2 days later when he was asked why he was still performing he responded "The people who are trying to make this world worse aren't taking a day off. How can I?"
btw sheed im sure you already know this but he lived in wilmington thats literally 5 minutes from my house. been a bob marley fan since i was a toddler my grandmother used to sing him and play it for me.

much respect.. to him and his fam..

Re: Bob Marley Appreciation Thread
bob marleys music has surrounded me my whole life. i grew up on reggae, and it was mostly bob, and that kinda irked me. there is probably no artist who is more of a face of one genre then bob is to reggae.
goat of goats, but its a shame a lot of his fans don't really listen to other reggae artists. kinda like eminem fans

Peter Tosh is my boy too. (he's like the militant alter ego of bob.. the guy who says what bob wouldnt) .. I also love alot of roots artists from burning spear to israel vibration... I like Delroy wilson and alot of other roots reggae artists...
I agree, it dont stop wit bob, he just introduces people to the culture

Re: Bob Marley Appreciation Thread
oh yeah thats right. can't believe black americans didn't show love for him. i remember hearing he had to open for the commodores. now commodores are classics themselves, but bob is in a league of his own.
