my LEGEND my INSPIRATION



This post is a tribute and a legacy for the late
"HON. BOB NESTA MARLEY" Feb 6, 1945 - May 11, 1981



When i graduated in high school way back in 1998, me & my cousin Charles was in manila for a vacation and my aunt BALUD "who`s also here living in japan nowadays" brought us to a music bar. That was the door that makes me inspire and love the reggae music... the rhythm was so alive, that even i was not into dancing i make myself and my cousin humping on that cool club; of course with the help of the refreshing beer it was the first moment that i was drunk...it was an amazing experience. and later on that year when i was in collage i was being introduced with this legend "BOB MARLEY" and follow all his legendary music and pass his legacy to some friends through out my collage years. The music is so real that the lyrics was so true in life... Bob Marley was not only a musical prophet but a HERO in figure, in the classic mythological sense. His departure from this planet came at a point when his vision of One World, One Love -- inspired by his belief in Rastafarai.



In those years when we praise the world of reggae most of the students did not know BOB and when they saw us dancing with his music they laughed and commented that "mura daw mi ug buang ug asa daw bukira na kuha ng kantaha" it means that we`re like crazy dancing on that unknown songs from the boondocks. but years passed when reggae spread like a fire they realize that that was the music of BOB NESTA MARLEY that they were dancing...a song from the LEGEND,PROPHET and a HERO!!!




The color GREEN,YELLOW, and RED symbolizes RASTAFARAI...so to all RASTAMAN friends out there JAH BLESS to each and everyone of you...
