Bob Marley’s “Redemption Song”
Bob Marley had a knack for singing about the woes that plagued poor communities and his music has helped him gain millions and millions of fans from all around the world. So getting political is nothing new for Marley. He wrote “Redemption Song” soon after doctors found a tumor in his toe. His wife Rita Marley later revealed that the legendary reggae artist was in a lot of pan and struggling to come to grips with his own mortality, a theme that was evident in the song and the “Uprising” album, which housed “Redemption Song.”
