Why did this man have to DIE so early? (video)
 

because the govt wanted him dead...

he should have died the time he was shot, but Jah let a brother sing on for a few more years...



.

So he could be a legend.

Like Hendrix, Morrison, Joplin, etc., they would all probably be diluted wash-ups if they were alive today.

It was fate.

He will live on forever in the hearts of millions

Brings back fond memories of hanging out at the Berkeley hills..... Rastaman Vibration YEEAH

because the good die young ... see tupac ... kurt kobain ...elvis ...michael ...

can you imagine being so famous that, decades after your death, everytime someone sees an item with the same colors as your country's flag, they refer to that item by your name?

that's how famous bob marley was.

Check out the pillar of smoke at some point in the first video :)

r.i.p. Peter Tosh

emissary from another dimension ...

you die when its your time.

One less drug user. I'm not seeing the problem.

Life is a crap shoot..

the same reason why you would be upset if your drug using family died. yes thats right , you use drugs and your family does too.. surprise surprise..

sorry troll on:winkwink:

Hmmm... need to put some of him on my phone. thanks!

Awesome post, pal!

too bad he died but what to do...

He died young in order not to exhaust himself to the point to be forgotten ...

When it's your time it's your time but it certainly is a damn shame.

Michael? Are you referring to Jackson?

He died at 50 after being in the business for 40+ years. Most of these others died in their 20s. Marley at 36 and Elvis at 42.

27 is that epic age of legends dieing... Joplin, Cobain, Morrison... Known as the 27 club

i know he wasnt that young ... but still ...

Because he turned down medical advice because of his religious beliefs for one.

I love Bob Marley and Jamaica, but thats still crazy imo.

he died because of his own stupidity.
he had melanoma in his big toe, the doc said amputate but...
"As a devout Rastafarian, Bob Marley adhered strongly to the tenets of his religion, which include a belief that amputation is sinful. A Bible verse that Rastafarians hold as very important is Leviticus 21:5 - "They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in the flesh." The first part of this verse is the foundation of the belief in the wearing of dreadlocks, and the last part is the basis for a belief that amputation (as well as other types of body modification) is sinful. Other verses, including those which refer to the body as a holy temple, may also influence this belief. "

i liked his shit alright but damn what a stupid ass thing not to do...
