Yea Bob Marley is kinda overrated to me. I mean he was a great person and all that other shyt but as far as his music besides a couple hits, his shyt sound hella redundant . Dudes like Peter Tosh, Barrington Levy, and Buju Banton, even them lil nikkas who made pass the dutchie shyt on Bob's music.

Now I don't know what tracks you are listening to but I'm willing to bet if you bought it (I personally don't support the estate of dead artists), it's in the same vein or worse as that godawful Legends album which, in my opinion are his most banal, happy go lucky, commercial friendly, edited shyt that Brother Bob ever put out that was gobbled up by the masses. I mean, it's a nice starter pack if you don't want to get any deeper and until Torrents came about I can't really expect my American Brehs to have access to a larger variety of reggae music like I do in the Caribbean with tapes, different sized vinyls and cds same way you guys could cop rap shyt and I've had to wait until I hit america or trawl through Napster.
Now, if you even read this I need you to know that I am in no way, shape or form a Bob Marley Stan in to a lesser degree, fan. Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh released music that resonated with me far more than Bob's shyt and with a group like Culture featuring the Legendary Joseph Hill, I don'ts EVER got to give Nesta's shyt the time of day if I can help it, but the brother has some very powerful songs with some of the best Session musicians this side of Sly and Robbie on the reggae scene, past and present. Couple that with the dude's lyrics....and you've got timeless classics, breh.
Now some dudes done posted prime examples of Bob's work that doesn't revolve around money (fukk that legends album and fukk a Greatest hits when it comes to reggae.) but here are a few more, that may or may not change your mind on his shyt.
Don't confuse Timeless with dated, breh. While those alternative tracks are serviceable, they pretty much just strip the vocals and add a beat vaguely reminiscent of the general rhythm of the song they took it from which dilutes it almost entirely in terms of power and message. But hey, sometimes all a dude wants to do is dance, right?
I was gonna tell you to kill yaself, but I'll just be civil and wish you a nice, productive day, Breh.
Musical youth made ONE album talking about smoking crack and fukking girls in a shed with hopes of being picked up as an International version of some weird Jackson 5 meets New Edition mashup. You can argue for tosh, Buju might be more your style....but the breh said Musical Youth.

You are without a doubt the worst troll on the coli next to Sir Biatch, you don't even try to be creative. You just shyt post non stop.
Bruh, Marley is up there with Bob Dylan, Hendrix, Stevie, Gil Scott Heron, Curtis Mayfield etc etc People who's music changed the way we looked at the world and ourselves*Needle scratches*

Dutchie wasn't about no crack and those kids were badd as hell to be so young... It was a cover of The Mighty Diamonds Pass The Kouchie (ganja pipe) but they were too young to say that so it was worked into Pass The Dutchie (Cooking Pot)
