February 6th marked what would have been the 67th birthday of Jamaican reggae legend Bob Marley, widely considered one of the greatest and most influential musicians of all time. Marley, who hailed from a lower class area of Kingston, the capital city of Jamaica, saw his rise to prominence in the 1970′s with a musical group known as The Wailers, with their new brand of Jamaican ska music and reggae. His album, Legend, released 3 years after his death, is still the greatest-selling reggae album of all time. In addition to turning reggae into a global music phenomenon, Marley was also the chief promoter of the Rastafarian religion worldwide. While he is famous for his dreadlocks, Rastafarian ethic and signature voice, what very few know is that Marley converted to Christianity over one year before his death.

Thanks @A-Omega for posting this.

I was a fan of him and i usually weep comming to think he might not have made heaven.
Now i have a peace of mind, not only that i also understand better now some of the message
he sent across and why.

Listening to him was very full of inspiration, but knowing the meaning of a song is very important.

Stay blessed brother
