Where was Bob Marley house when he got shot?
The house was located at one Hope Rd. Kingston, Jamaica. It was previously owned by Chris Blackwell, Owner of Island Records and the person credited with discovering The Wailers.
Bob believed the reason he was targeted was because of the car he owned. The expensive BMW brought to much attention to him and gave the impression to those on the street that he had sold out. That however was not the reason for his purchase. He liked the initials of the car-BMW-Bob Marley and the wailers
Green Yellow and red are the Ethiopian colors. Bob Marley really loved Ethiopia.
He supported the Rastafari religion that started when Jamaicans believed that Ethiopias king Haile Selassie, birth name Ras Tafari, was there messiah.
In Jamaica there was a huge drought, they hadn't had any rain, and when Haile Selassie went there, it started raining. That's how the religion, or way of life started. Haile Selassie said in an interview that he was not God and that nobody should worship him and he was Orthodox Christian. Shortly before his death Bob Marley converted to Orthdox Christian.
So the reason he uses those colors are because they represent Ethiopia, and Rastafari.
