The ‘Tuff Gong’ or ‘Gong Gong Gorilla’, one of the biggest pioneers and ambassadors of Reggae who is known today as a symbolization of unity across the planet. A remarkable talent that would chant “one love of Jamaica”, showing his pride and gratification for where he came from as he reached a standing ovation. Any where, any place, any crowd. Bob had exemplified revolutionizing the world and seeing it for the better rather than the negative aspects that revolved around it. A philosophy of turning the violence that he once came from back in Trenchtown, Jamaica into peace and prosperity. Bob looked to music as an escape and those affected by war would then look back at his music for healing in return. More than 20 million records sold with over 13 live and 6 studio albums with the Wailers, that would change the face of global pop music and the mindsets of listeners that would gravitate towards it. A combination of early ska, rock steady and reggae musical form that would transition him into an international star. More so, a honorable man that stood behind his people, turning his truths into a reality for millions.
“Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live!"
