Tout ce que tu fuis te suit… Ce à quoi tu fais face s’efface…. Parce que la peur est une réaction tandis que le courage est une décision. Idjidja mon gars!!!💪🧡

Ziggy Marley
Maximum respect and was a joy and a privilege to meet your daughter. Last week I said to Marcie that I had never met any of your children and look at how Jah worked it out.
As your dad said "One love"

Bob Marley & The Commodores Concert

On this day September 19, 1980, 45 years ago, Bob Marley & The Wailers opened for The Commodores at Madison Square Garden in New York City as part of the Uprising Tour. This was the first of two sold-out shows Marley would perform with The Commodores, and it is considered by some a defining performance and one of his last concerts, as it was the U.S. leg of his final tour before his passing in 1981. Rip Bob Marley 🙏

"I am sorry for the people who don't understand what we talk about. Because they bear great tribulations in times when they don't have to. You see, I personally know my heart can be hard as a stone, and yet soft as water.."
