Bob Marley sucks. His music sucks. His kid...is better than him, only slightly. Nothing is great about Bob Marley. Just the fact that he had around 40 species of insects living in his hair is enough to make me hate him even if its a rumor. I just cannot understand why anyone would be willing to sit down and actually listen to his shitty hippy, stoner music.

Of all the mucisians you could've picked to make a thread trashing them, why Bob Marley? I'm not a huge fan, but there's plenty of mucisians that he is 10 times better than.

I agree, if it werent for the pot smoking, he would have NO fans. And thats a fuckin fact. Hes only popular cuz of dumbass stoners. Which shows how much he sucks, you gotta be high to find his music good.

If it were'nt for your mother, nobody would love you.

edit: Van Vader and AmpRade, are you sure you aren't related? Or maybe it is just the red, and the resemblance confuses me.

You are really really really picky when it comes to music. In almost all the threads you post in you say [name of band here] sucks. It's amazing that someone can hate so much music. Open up your mind to more music dude. It doesn't have to be the "perfect" music for you in order for you to like it. I suppose that's your problem, not mine, but it does get annoying when you say every band sucks in every single thread.

Bob Marley has some good stuff. I have a pretty wide range in music, but there are a couple of artists that manage to stand out amongst the dozens introduced to me all the time and Bob Marley is one of them. Listening to his music, I couldn't help but feel impressed. I'm a fan.

I am picky, and i dont understand why no one else is. A song does have to be "perfect" for me to listen to it. Why would i listen to soemthing thats just "alright" or "decent" or "okay". Im not gonna waste my time on something that doesnt kick a mega amount of ass. I only listen to what absolutely awesome. Why other people would listen to something or spend money on something that they simply find "decent" is beyond me. And ive never said every band sucks, just ones that have a load of worthless shit, and very little to no incredibly awesome stuff.

Pink Floyd rocks amazingly and that can't be argued. Leave them out of this.

Bob Marley is one of the most underatted guitarists of all time. He is extremely talented in his play, and his musical creation. He creates great music with deeper meanings then most are used to, and if you don't like him, it's probably because you can't understand his music.

I don't take your opinion seriously, seeing that you are a Phish fan. You probably listen to a song then blow its meaning out of proportion, then toke up again just to listen to another one of his overrated songs.

Edit: BigMatt sent me a list of some good Phish songs, so I do not support my previous opinion about Phish anymore. But they're still far from one of my favorite bands.

Cant understand his music?? What the hell does that mean? Its music, its judged by whether it sounds good or not, not what meaning it has, its not a fricken book.

It creates better discussion. If I said 'I love Rush,' would you feel as much of a need to respond? Btw, Rush has much more talent than Bob Marley, and The Grateful Dead combined, times 3.

Edit: I took Phish out because I recently heard some good songs by them(thanks to HoboMatt, his name is something like that, i think) could see their talent.

The only thing backing you up is Big Van whatever, and his only argument is "they suck". Face it, Bob Marley is a fucking incredible mucisian. This is coming from someone who doesn't even like most of his music. Just because of someone's personal opinion on an artist's music does not take away from the talent.

Ozzy is onyl good for...all the things he did. (drugs, Alamo, etc.)
Hendrix is only good because he did drugs.
There's so many things that could be added to the list. And every single statement would be wrong. Marley is great. If you listen to it and say it sucks you have no taste in music.

2. The Wu-Tang Clan is named after a chinese tribe in the Wudang mountains.

Hip-Hop might not be as musical as other genres. But a lot of songs have deeper meanings in them. Like many people have said it's like poetry. And if you say poetry doesn't require talent then you further support the idea that you are a fucking idiot. Though you've already convinced every one on this site that you are.

I wrote a Haiku
It was written just for you
I have no talent

See, easy, writting about using drugs and sex, like hip hop artists, doesn't require talent. And their songs don't have deep meaning either.

Have you seen a rapper write a haiku? No me either. Write a poem like this if you think poets have no talent.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore -
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Nameless here for evermore.

And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
`'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door -
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; -
This it is, and nothing more,'

Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
`Sir,' said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!'
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!'
Merely this and nothing more.

Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
`Surely,' said I, `surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door -
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven.
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore -
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door -
Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as `Nevermore.'

But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow will he leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'

Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
`Doubtless,' said I, `what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore -
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
Of "Never-nevermore."'

But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -
What this grim, ungainly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'

This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet violet lining that the lamp-light gloated o'er,
But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore!

Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
`Wretch,' I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee
Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! -
Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted -
On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore -
Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore -
Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels named Lenore?'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting -
`Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!

-Edgar Allan Poe

A child was born, with no state of mind
Blind to the ways of mankind
God is smiling on you but he's frowning too
Cause only god knows what you go through
You grow in the ghetto, living second rate
And your eyes will sing a song of deep hate
The places you play and where you stay
Looks like one great big alley way
You'll admire all the number book takers
Thugs, pimps, pushers and the big money makers
Driving big cars, spending twenties and tens
And you wanna grow up to be just like them
Smugglers, scrambles, burglars, gamblers
Pickpockets, peddlers and even pan-handlers
You say i'm cool, i'm no fool
But then you wind up dropping out of high school
Now you're unemployed, all null 'n' void
Walking around like you're pretty boy floyd
Turned stickup kid, look what you done did
Got send up for a eight year bid
Now your manhood is took and you're a may tag
Spend the next two years as an undercover fag
Being used and abused, and served like hell
Till one day you was find hung dead in a cell
It was plain to see that your life was lost
You was cold and your body swung back and forth
But now your eyes sing the sad sad song
Of how you lived so fast and died so young

-Grandmaster Flash

Rap can have meaning. It can mean that the thug wants to kill someone, commit an act of violence, or bang some ho.

Edit: In reply to Wu-Tang, Edgar was a poet from the 19th century. He had talent, unlike most rappers. (Such as Eminem, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Grand Master Flash, etc.) Now Vanilla Ice..he had talent and the group that did the song Rappers Delight.

Only popular because of stoners? Hell no. I listened to Bob Marley before I ever smoked pot, which was only once. That dude's music is awesome. I know people who have never smoked before in their life who like Bob Marley. He's a really good musician. I find his songs to be the most soothing and calming songs in the world. And in a land of gothic nu-metal, it's good to listen to something calm every once in awhile.

1. You said poetry didn't take talent by writing that haiku. I myself haven't heard about a famous haiku writer.
2. Grandmaster Flash IS TALENTED. If you can't be a great DJ (scratching, tables, etc.) like him then you have no fucking right to say he isn't talented.
3. If you can't write a verse anywhere near as good as a decent MC then you have no fucking right to say they aren't talented.
4. You can't fucking tell me that this song has no meaning unless your lying, or your just a complete retard.

I hear Brenda's got a baby
But, Brenda's barely got a brain
A damn shame
Tha girl can hardly spell her name
(That's not our problem, that's up ta Brenda's family)
Well let me show ya how it affects tha whole community
Now Brenda never really knew her moms and her dad was a
junky
Went in debt to his arms, it's sad
Cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know
Just cause your in tha ghetto doesn't mean ya can't grow
But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation
Do whatever it takes ta resist tha temptation
Brenda got herself a boyfriend
Her boyfriend was her cousin, now lets watch tha joy end
She tried to hide her pregnancy, from her family
Who didn't really care to see, or give a damn if she
Went out and had a church of kids
As long as when tha check came they got first dibs
Now Brendas belly is gettin bigger
But no one seems ta notice any change in her figure
She's 12 years old and she's having a baby
In love with tha molester, whos sexin her crazy
And yet she thinks that he'll be with her forever
And dreams of a world with tha two of them are together,
whatever
He left her and she had tha baby solo, she had it on tha
bathroom floor
And didn't know so, she didn't know, what ta throw away and
what ta keep
She wrapped tha baby up and threw him in tha trash heep
I guess she thought she'd get away
Wouldn't hear tha cries
She didn't realize
How much tha tha little baby had her eyes
Now tha babys in tha trash heep balling
Momma can't help her, but it hurts ta hear her calling
Brenda wants ta run away
Momma say, you makin' me lose pay, tha social workers here
everyday
Now Brenda's gotta make her own way
Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay
No money no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job
She tried ta sell crack, but end up getting robbed
So now what's next, there ain't nothin left ta sell
So she sees sex as a way of leavin hell
It's payin tha rent, so she really can't complain
Prostitute, found slain, and Brenda's her name, she's got a baby

Fuck it dude. I'm done arguing with an idiot.

Go ahead and dislike "stoner music", but don't put Bob Marley on that list, since he doesn't fit.

Bob Marley is the man. His music is great and he is a Reggae legend. My favorite song by Bob Marley is Buffalo Soldier. Get Up Stand Up is a really good song also.

Bob Marley is popular because he is the most widely known Jamaican musicians of all time, and was at the forefront of the Rastafarian movement. He was able to rise out of the slums of Jamaica where basically the only way to earn good money is to become a musician. He also inspired a bunch of other artists with his musical style and lyrics based around freedom from opression and power to the powerless...

He is only popular with stoners cause they think Bob Marley is only about smoking weed, when really his weed smoking among other things is based around his religion of Rastafarianism.

Rush has much more talent than Bob Marley, and The Grateful Dead combined, times 3.

No, very foolish to compare them.

For one, don't compare bands that you dislike to bands you like; for you are biased and ignorant to the bands you dislike. Which turns your opinion into shit.

Bob Marley sucks. His music sucks. His kid...is better than him, only slightly. Nothing is great about Bob Marley. Just the fact that he had around 40 species of insects living in his hair is enough to make me hate him even if its a rumor. I just cannot understand why anyone would be willing to sit down and actually listen to his shitty hippy, stoner music.

BOB MARLEY RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

While this statement is coming from a stoner, i think its safe to say that i havent heard many Bob Marley songs while stoned, but not stoned they are all pretty cool. I dont think its the matter of being stoned that makes the music better, its that your mind thinks of things you dont think of when you hear the music the music when youre high. Being high increases the pleasure to your brain as you hear the music form and flow.

I'm afraid Vader isn't gonna be posting any time soon... :D


Besides, he already named the bands he liked (I think) in this thread. All five of them.

This thread has been revived for the 3rd time I think. I don't think it'll ever go away. This thread should be locked.
