This shows that Tosh was hated because he didn't sell out, He Didn't fall to Babylon laws. Tosh to me was bigger than reggae. Peter will always be King in my book.
Your posts are pure gold. Hope you will consider collecting all your material on reggae into a book or book collection some day. Plenty of the material you present has never been published in a coherent and easy accessible format before. Preserving all your material into an «encyclopedia of reggae» or something like that would have been of great cultural value for both Jamaica and the rest of the world. The history of reggae is so rich, plentiful and intertwined that it is just amazing. Thanks a lot for your efforts.🙏❤️💛💚

I really love you're videos as they are very informative. But please do something with the background music editing. Sometimes it's so loud you can't hear the narration, and in this video there is 1,2 or 3 seconds of music every 20 seconds which is very annoying while watching this video with headphones. Anyway, big up and keep bringing the knowledge✊🏽
Peter Tosh was talented but let's not try to rewrite history here..Bob was the dominant songwriter in the Island years... And the credits say so. None can convince me (knowing who Tosh was) would relent taking credit for his work even for altruist reasons.Tosh didn't dispute Marley's songwriting credentials his main contention being what he perceived as being sidelined from greater contributions on the group's projects... So Where's Marlene version coming from?
Bob was already dominant before the Island years. Just check the Wailers' two Lee Perry produced albums (credited to 'Bob Marley & the Wailers' not without reason...)
Some people who love Peter Tosh always feel the need to descredit Bob Marley to make Peter greater,it is funny because it doesn't work the other way Bob 's fans respect and Love peter.
@fredvan6043 You're right of course and I know that. I just deliberately avoided the ska and rock steady era (1963 when the group was launched till 1968) feeling many are not very familiar with that period.. You're absolutely right..And the debut smash 1963's Simmer Down was penned by Bob (Courtesy of credits)
@@atshabal Clearly....And as an anecdote: It's similar to the rivalry between footballers Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. A debate which had been a rage for the past 15 years...I absolutely Love Ronaldo but Messi has the edge, I admit..😁😁
Some one said that Peter was for black Power, an that Bob was for one Love, but for those who dont know, it was Marcus Garvey who first came up with the one Love saying, which was meant for Black People, which in full statement, was, ONE GOD, ONE AIM, ONE DESTINY, that was what the original one love was, black people aiming for one African Unity, but people are taking it to mean the world, which it was only meant for all Africans.
I love Tosh's music, but he was a hood dude, who was with a hood chick, and did't distance himself from the hood and hood people. I love his music, but instead of pretending this was an unexpected tragedy, let's look at this as a warning for people who can change their lives and be saved from this same fate.
@@badumbuya8513 There's nothing more to explain. Of course you can escape "evil forces". Sounds like you are just making excuses for you or the people you know to do bad things. Maybe you think you are the evil force and just don't want to change and do life the hard way by being good.
@@djtwelvetwenty2939 Not at all accurate. They didn't try to escape evil. Both Nipsey and Jay kept themselves in the evil world, they weren't escaping from it. First, Nipsey stayed in the hood and hood $hit happens in the hood. That's kinda that. Sad, but not unexpected. And Jam Master Jay? Haha. He was (allegedly) involved in a drug deal that went bad.
Don’t belittle Tosh name … you know not what you speak of . You wouldn’t definitely not do well meeting an old prophet from the the Bible because they were rough men unlike what Christianity portrays.
I loved P.T. more than the don't care what people say because if it was not for him, B. M would have never known the guitar. u know people run down P.T. but not B. M. They praise him, and its not right, so yes, I loved him more.
@@lawrencenjawe9875 Prophets can cause trouble.. A prophet is a SEER. He was able to see.... If you can also see and you listen to his music, you will understand the message.
The narration for this video was lifted almost word for word from the book ''Catch A Fire'' by Timothy White. I just finished reading it last night so I'm certain I'm not mistaken. I'm disapointed in you, I thought you wrote your own material.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. However, your statement is inaccurate. The source for this episode is a publication from 1989, not Catch-A-Fire as you mentioned.
The problem with this video is that it is mixture of some truths, statements made without contexts or explanations, as well as some inaccuracies. Context is particularly important when the individual who is the focus of the video is not around to verify truths, as well as to challenge misinformation and inaccuracies.
Yeah..🙄🙄One of those hypothesis..But it doesn't hold any water at all. And we all know Bunny and Rita's relationship was strained.. Bunny was suffering from dementia and mental problems before his passing...You probably haven't heard or read that....🙂
@lawrencenjawe9875 Rita and Bob was never married.. Peter and Rita had a relationship...I listen to bunny.. he was a wailer... everybody else probably here say and family of bob.. um speaking facts unknown by many dats what makes it mystery because you may lack understanding of something ting, dat does not it is not true
We have to keep it real if ourselves, so we can learn from each other experiences and our own experiences. A controlling woman in a relationship can make a man lost his mind and this dysfunctional behaviours starts our mothers all the way down to our daughters. In a time to such heartbreak and pain and suffering, Peter Tosh wife having a go at Peter Toshs mother. Now in life Peter Tosh was that special man with two father's, Tosh one and two, two Toshs. His mother was no angel, that right there will mess with a child's head. Oh he didn't see his father and mother for 20 year's. Which father was it? Which mother was it? That had to be very very very confusing😵😕🤔 Rasta. Look it's wonderful that you are bringing out those stories, but you are exposing the dysfunctional behaviours in our community. It doesn't matter how gifted you are, this is a very very very heavy mental load to carry. Knowing you came from such a dysfunctional family and a dysfunctional home. Now Peter Tosh and his wife, should have a hard look in the mirror. To discover how they helped to ruining Peter Tosh life. You see liar's, thieves and hypocrites. They can hide behind their words, but their actions will expose them. May Peter Tosh rest in power, feel free to disagree with my comments. It doesn't mean a thing to me. I will not change my position, the truth as already said.
You seem to get un-ending pleasure from mixing up, the things, that you may not understand. If so, I sorry for your sense of what this’ larger movement has been about. Simple re-telling, of a story has its limits. Positive vibrations, all the while.🇬🇳
Tosh were a loose Canon, somewhat unstable and hate lovers rock, in his own words, he attack Michael Jackson for doing shake body down, he thinks people were tired of such type of music and he got the right stuff, gets very angry easily and when he exit Richard's house, he trashed the place so no one wants to do business with Tosh and tried to distance themselves from him to avoid problems.
Keith Richards actually... Richards was more drawn to reggae and was even involved in collaborations and productions thru out the years than Mick Jagger was
Fearless, uncompromising, brave and bold makes Peter Tosh the Emperor of Reggae Music for me. ❤💛💚🖤
Worth studying
Your videos are very informative. Thank you!
Many thanks and blessings!
Mi love Peter Tosh, very talented man who stood up for himself. Rest in power Peter. Jah blessings everytime.
🫡🙏🏿🫶🏿💚💛❤️
Peter Tosh is, will always be my hero.
Peter Tosh life encompasses all life lessons. Lessons in my life happen to be one of his songs
This shows that Tosh was hated because he didn't sell out, He Didn't fall to Babylon laws. Tosh to me was bigger than reggae. Peter will always be King in my book.
But Bob Marley did fall.

That's just an opinon, not a fact.
I remember that day and we all learn you don't entertain common criminals.
Ignore that at your own peril. Peter Tosh life encompasses all life lessons. Lessons in my life happen to be one of his songs
Appreciate the info 👍🏾
Been to the Tomb but now know the story 💜
That's some news to me. Thanks Ras
PETER TOSH is my God and my music.
Brasil 🇧🇷 São Paulo
Peter Tosh could do no wrong.
Umm.... he crawled in bed with the demonic Rolling Stones 🤷♂️
Disturbing to think Tosh had to pay protection money to a hood man
Marlene was the death of Peter,,, Marlene Brown made Peter DISOWN his own Mother & band '''
The fact that the voice said Dovecot is on Constant Spring Road, makes me doubtful of the entire item.

two very different perspectives. tosh was black power and marley was one love.

Prophet cause no trouble and dosent hold bitterness. Sadly Tosh did.
What on earth does Total prophet mean?
