Bob marley held "one love one piece" concert in Kingston, Jamaica on April 22, 1978. Both rivals were attending. At the end of the concert Bob marley asked prime minister Michael Manley and opposition leader Edward Seaga for coming to the stage in order to shake hands. After they ascended the stage, Bob Marley, Michael Manley and Edward Seaga shook hands togather in front of people. That day, the war was stopped, however it was renewed soon. On May 11, 1981 Bob Marley died of cancer. At his funeral two rivals met each other and shook their hands again. That day was the end of the civil war in Jamaica.
"I Shot the Sheriff," September 13, 1974
bob Marley's songs where mainly about his life and the things he say going on in his life and so he just put the things going on around him that he thought needed to be heard into a song/songs so people say what were going on in the world around them.
Bob Marley died in 1981, officially due to malignant melanoma, a dangerous type of cancer that was found on his big toe. Some believe it was from a copper wire that was in a pair of boots given to him by a CIA agents son at a concert, which poked him in the big toe, and he hurt it more while playing soccer.he died on May 11, 1981 at the age of 36However, 5 years earlier (December 5, 1976) at a concert in Jamaica, Bob, his wife and manager were all shot by an unidentified gunman. They all survived the attack.The concert was billed as a peace rally to quell growing political violence in the run-up to the country's national elections, but was viewed by many as a political rally by the sitting government. Bob was therefore accused of taking sides and is believed to have been attacked by gunmen aligned with the government's main political opponents.
Bob's favorite book was the Holy Bible. "A chapter a day is the Rasta way", so the saying goes, and from many hours of concert footage I have seen, I can tell you that Bob had memorized much from the Scriptures and that they heavily influenced his life and music.
Bob Marley died from complications of a skin cancer, melanoma, which he had contracted several years earlier. In September 1980, a weakened Marley almost fainted onstage while performing in New York. The next day, he collapsed while jogging in Central Park. Marley was diagnosed with a brain tumor (a result of the untreated cancer in his toe) and given less than a month to live. Despite the grim news, Marley played one final show in Pittsburgh before being flown to Miami. There doctors verified that the singer had cancer in the brain, lung, and stomach. On May 11, 1981, Bob Marley died at the age of 36. (see related link)
Bob Marley played the concert after being shot to send a message to all of the haters and evil in the world. He loved his music and believed in what he was doing so much that he felt he had to play. He was quoted in saying "The people that are trying to make the world worse never take a day off , why should I? Light up the darkness."
