Bob Marley Artists Tribute

bob_marleyRobert Nesta “Bob” Marley (February 6, 1945 – May 11, 1981) was a Jamaican singer-songwriter and musician. He was the lead singer, songwriter and guitarist for the ska, rocksteady and reggae bands The Wailers (1964–1974) and Bob Marley & The Wailers (1974–1981). Marley remains the most widely known and revered performer of reggae music, and is credited for helping spread both Jamaican music and the Rastafari movement to a worldwide audience.

Marley’s best known hits include “I Shot the Sheriff“, “No Woman, No Cry“, “Could You Be Loved“, “Stir It Up“, “Jamming“, “Redemption Song“, “One Love” and, together with The Wailers, “Three Little Birds“,[2] as well as the posthumous releases “Buffalo Soldier” and “Iron Lion Zion“. The compilation album, Legend (1984), released three years after his death, is reggae’s best-selling album, being 10 times Platinum(Diamond) in the U.S.,[3] and selling 20 million copies worldwide.

Today 29 years ago, Bob Marley left us victim of cancer. Personally I`m not a big fan of Reggae Music, but I respect him as an artist, musician and activist, I`m sure you have heard at least one of his songs. I thought it would be a good idea to post some works of different artists as a tribute to him. Hope you enjoy them!

    Nice of you to pay homage to a Legend Franco – now if Bob were alive he would probably say : “Since you not so fond of me boy , why you do me tribute blood sire man ? ” 😀 😛 Or maybe he would simply just laugh and sing you one of his songs – regardless the case – Bob was , is & will continue to be the progenator of Reggae and as he is widely known amongst his fans ( and non fans ) :Legend. And I dont believe that it was his untimely death which made him the Legend which he is today – he was a legend even when he was alive – it was his music which gave him that honor & respect & the type of human being he was . I love Bob , he was awesome <3

    Great of you to pay him tribute ( even if u arent a big fan of his music ) 😉
