[inaudible]...my rights...I know what that is. See? And I don't care who the guy is because my right is my right, like my life. You know? All I have is my life.

Bob Marley some 300 million records, the world's first reggae superstar violence, assassination, and exile. He the spokesman for Jamaica, this tiny Caribbean island, by global politics and domestic strife.

He could be the most dangerous man. He could be on the most wanted list. Music was his weapon. Music was his M16. His guitar was his weapon that each time he gets that way he was able to express: bang, bang, bang.

He was like a verbal newspaper for those who and what was going on in the government in Jamaica and the world.

He a family life, or just rooted to one person. He here, there, everywhere, his mother a little bit, not his father at all, no one person that he was ever close to for his entire life.

I think the measure of the impact of Bob's career on the world by the extraordinary attention paid to him at the turning of the millennium. The New York Times called Bob the most influential artist of the second half of the 20th century. His song One Love as the anthem of the millennium by the BBC. Perhaps the most important honor and the most unexpected honor from Time Magazine Exodus as the best album of the 20th century. And remarks like those of Jack Healey, the President of Amnesty International, that everywhere in the world today Bob Marley the symbol of freedom.
