    What an interview! I love the I-Three but Judy Mowatt moved me a little extra, to where when I started recording, that same Shanachi Records said " There's already a Judy." I studied every note, her energy etc. Ras Record's Dr Dread called me...Judy. He brought me to Negril on a show to perform and when I enter rehearsal, is Sister Judy rehearsing. I thought I was gonna faint. It was just like her moment with entering a room with Rita & Marcia. I was to rehearse next. I was shaking. Anyway, just a share and an enormous hug and love for this unbelievable spirit and woman.❤

      You're blessed ,I bet she is a nice person, theese Jamaican artists really fought for their position, it took a while for reggae to hit audience, God bless bob ,he gave a lot of people courage to make music,in return change thier lives ,like bob said one good thing about music ,when it hits ya feel no pain, scratch Perry was a money man, bob gave that away to bring some comfort to people who there struggling ,

    For the wise and prudent, Rastafari adds up. His Majesty also said: "I glory in The Bible". The Solomonic line is real, and the roots of ancient Israel are in Africa. The land across the Red Sea was Africa. Rastafari.

    I hear you you bro, the i trees were already established, bob had his eyes on them,Judy mowatt already released aome serious great reggae like black woman,very powerful,,they knew they had to bring what they had to world, im sad i was out of the era but i was lucky to find reggae in my teens, gave a sense of meaning and worldwide love,purpose,,truly admire bob for what he worked to achieve ,enjoyed all his albums,specially the early ones, like lik samba and screw face,timelessness tracks rhat we all love like waiting in vain,i think its fair to say that most people fall in love with s mains stream music, but as you start to learn about the whole movement it opens up doors i to a way of life about repect and love ,im so lucky to feel theese vibrations, ive learned they travel,and sometimes effect not only ones selfbut orhers too , just be kind to strangers,and patient, and most of all help each other, live full filling life,its far to short ,listern to theese guys who saw an opportunity to make life better!real artists

I share a lot of your earliest testimonials, but looking at me today, as I look at you, I can see the Glory of God in you. Praise God for your transformation and becoming a child of God. May you continue to be a Blessing to others as God our Father continues to move you and use you for His Glory, in Jesus' Name, Amen! 🙏🏾💝

    The movie is “one love” that is basically one aspect of Bob’s life. When they make a movie called “The Life and times of Bob Marley” then we can pick apart the the contents like some people are doing. I agree with Judy. Keep it positive. One Love did well for Jamaica.

    When my unmarried mother started having children she was still living with her parents. My grand parents were benched (they couldn’t participate in activities or take communion) by the church. After three children; my grave parents helped my parents to find a place where they built their home. Their fourth child
    was born in their own home.

    I really love the fact that Mommy Judy doesn’t ridicule Rastafari because she became a Christian. This is possibly one of the most honest and organic interview I have ever seen.
    I also remember an interview she did a long time ago after she became a Christian when she had a run in with Capleton at the airport and the entourage were bunning fire on her. I was young and thought it was funny then but now listening to her I felt bad not knowing what she was going through.

    I think Bob Marley’s scariest message is in his song: Natty Dread Rides Again. That’s a powerful song. ‘Now the fire is out of control, panic in the city. Wicked reaching for their gold. Everywhere, the fire is burning. Destroying and melting their gold. Destroying and wasting their soul. Natty dread rides again!!!

    The love and care she shows for Rastafari and 12 Tribes, despite being a follower of Christ shows a lot about her faith and the teachings of Christ. It is in stark contrast to the way people are quick to bun those that believe the Bible. God bless this sister, very encouraging.

      It is very sad that my family didn't follow in my fathers footsteps and the calling upon his Soul, to help the people, breaking the chains that bind us to poverty. My identity was hidden from the time I was a child, and now I'm writing a book about my life called 'Reclaim Your Soul ' I'm still writing it, but when it comes out I'm donating a percentage to Jamaicas impoverished people. I've made plans with a few people in Jamaica who will make sure the money I give goes directly to the people. We have plans to raise up the standard of living by giving directly to the people, and I'm for real. The calling is upon my soul and I won't ignore it. It might be some time before all this happens as I'm still writing, but I hear you and feel you, and I have lived in ghettos and in poverty all these years, even though I wrote a lot of music for my family. This is not a joke and I am not a scam. I'm going to finish what my father started.
      You can find me on my social media under the name Zara Marley, Ru Hawk and under the book I'm writing 'Reclaim Your Soul '. Fund me there and I'll give you more information about our plans and link you up eith the people in Jamaica helping me navigate how to Bless the people in Jamaica.

I can only assume that your comments is one of ignorance from a johnny come lately parasite or someone who should know better. I have all of Judy Mowatt's albums from her first in 1973 that had the track Mellow Mood (shout out to those who remember) and also her classic album BLACK WOMEN. She is definitely a pioneer.
