Title: A seemingly just tribute to a wonderful man.
Review: Bob Marley's music is pure bliss in any form. This album, though inferior to Marley's original works, does a wonderful job of bringing the enchanting lyrics, beats, and messages to a new audience of Hip-hop and R&B fans. The blend of artists bring new life to Bob's already amazing songs and show a fresh "face" to the music, a "face" many would not expect to see Bob wearing. Erykah Badu and Lauryn Hill's vocals highlight Marley's wonderfully, and the version of Kinky Reggae, performed with Marely's sons was incredible. I do wish however that more respect had been given to maintaining Bob's original message of unity, pride and peace. The truth of Bob's lyrics seemed to be somewhat lost in heavy beats and jibberish rap. Still overall, this was a nice new rendition of classic music, I enjoyed listening.
