Article Title: One world, one love, one Bob Marley

Excerpt: He once reflected: "I don't have prejudice against himself. My father was a white and my mother was black. Them call me half-caste or whatever. Me don't dip on nobody's side. Me don't dip on the black man's side nor the white man's side. Me dip on God's side, the one who create me and cause me to come from black and white."

Excerpt: Bob's story is that of an archetype, which is why it continues to have such a powerful and ever-growing resonance: it embodies political repression, metaphysical and artistic insights, gangland warfare and various periods of mystical wilderness. And his audience continues to widen.

Excerpt: The Island of Jamaica has produced an artist who has transcended all categories, classes, and creeds through a combination of innate modesty and profound wisdom. Bob Marley, the Natural Mystic, may yet prove to be the most significant musical artist of the twentieth century.

Article Title: Rita Marley: There from the beginning

Excerpt: All over the world, the Marley name and Rita Marley have become synonymous with reggae music, Rastafari and Jamaica. Rita was born Rita Anderson in Cuba, and raised from an early age in Trench Town.

Excerpt: By the early '70s, Rita and Bob developed the I-Threes, Jamaica's three leading female singers (Rita Marley, Judy Mowatt, Marcia Griffiths), to provide support harmonies for Bob Marley and the Wailers, who had become the first reggae act to gain an international record contract.

Excerpt: On her official website she notes, "Reggae is the heartbeat of a person. It's the people's music. Everywhere you go, you get the same response from both black and white."

Excerpt: Rita now lives in Ghana and is called Nana Afua Abodea 1, within the Aqwapim region of Ghana.

Article Title: A chat with Mama Marley

Excerpt: "Him born before day, you know. Two o' clock in the morning. Every year since his passing, I wake up at that time on his birthday. I just sit up in bed and read my Bible and give thanks to Rastafari for the blessing that I get on that day," she said, a glimmer in her eyes.

Excerpt: "It give me good feeling in my heart to see these people come here from all over the world. Bob did a lot for them, you know. He was a great man in their lives, so they come now, especially on his birthday to show their love for him."

Article Title: Bob Marley: More than a poster and a spliff

Excerpt: There's obviously more to it than that, but the fact that his dreadlocked semblance has now become a symbol standing for something much different than he actually intended places him in the league of appropriated heroes, somewhere amid Che Guevara, Marilyn Monroe and John Lennon. When once his music was the rallying cry of the oppressed Jamaicans who saw in him a revolutionary who would bring peace to a torn country, it's now the soundtrack to hazy bro-downs in just about every institution of higher learning in the world.

Excerpt: He spent the next few years as he'd spent much of the last: touring. It's estimated that Bob Marley was directly responsible for the livelihood of more than 6,000 displaced Jamaicans at his Hope Road residence, and the pressure of economically supporting them kept him on the road despite his diagnoses of cancer. Life on the road took its toll on him, but Marley had one more triumphant return to Jamaica left in him.

Excerpt: Furthermore, a lot of his ethnicity has been stripped from him. Reggae is still generally filed under the vague "world music" label, a category that Marley himself is largely responsible for creating. Worse, the urgency has also been stripped from his music. The image of Bob Marley in our world now is one of ganja and peace, love and acoustic guitar jams with your best bros. Where is the blood and suffering? The cries for burnin' and lootin' or revolution for all men?

Excerpt: Because Robert Nesta Marley is no longer with us, his name and image are entrusted to us to protect and his message to spread. So put down the bong, put on Catch A Fire and figure out how you're going to make a difference in the world.

Excerpt: While some bootleg remixes of these songs exist, Roots, Rock, Remixed is the first remix album to receive a certified blessing from the Marley family and Chris Blackwell, himself, who stated, "Roots, Rock, Remixed retains the songs and the spirit of the original Wailers' recordings and creates a great dance party record."

Excerpt: "We're honored to work with such an important body of music," says Jeff Daniel, the album's co-producer and rockr music's chief. "Marley's sound was like no other and his indelible stamp can be heard all through these great new remixes. We took great care not to disrespect his legend."

"I was very surprised and excited," Magalie said, her face lighting up as though she still had not gotten over that initial surprise - even though she was sitting in the cafe at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel in Kingston.
