BOB MARLEYYou peeps eva heard of Bob? Anyway this dude here is respect man. To me he embodies what I would call passion for music. And his life was music and sticking it to the man. Anyway read some of his lyrics.. This song was written when he was diagnosed for cancer but refused to amputate his leg for performance purposes. Its the Redemption Song. He wrote many other songs and each albums has its meaning, esp in a place like Africa which has many politics, you could say he united his ppl. Well he wrote dont worry be happy and many others. So if you peeps can just go buy his album and stuff. Dont download. Nvm ha. Anyway his dead.
