Bob Marley And The Wailers

Music is such a beautiful creation, the way the melody, rhythm, tempo, all mix together to become a masterpiece. One specific genre of music, the blues, was heavily popular in the early 20th century. The blues is a tradition-oriented music style from the rural Southern African-American origin (“Jazz in America”, n.d. ). It usually had secular content, which is disparate from how it was when it first began. Blues music originated in plantations, where slaves sung, using it as a mental escape method from their oppression. Even though it started off in a simple way, it eventually turned into a serious entertainment. Bessie Smith and Billie Holliday, two well-known blues female singers, became hit sensations.

A Christmas Carol begins with the information that Marley, business partner and co-owner of ‘Scrooge and Marley’ counting house has been dead for 7 years. The other half of the business owner, Scrooge; however, was very much alive and continued the business. Scrooge has sharp and angular aged features and a stiff walk. No one in particular cares about him and he makes it apparent that they know he does not as well. To certify this description of him, when his nephew greets him with a “Merry Christmas”, Scrooge mutters a “Bah Humbug” and quickly dismisses his excitement for the holiday. He thinks that Christmas is a waste of money and finding another year has passed by and one is no richer. A similar exchange occurs with another man.

Rastafarians split from organized religion, but hold onto their Christian faith by interpreting the Bible for themselves in new unique ways. "This is what Rastafarian "theology" is about: taking the discourse into intellectual landscapes beyond narrow theological hermeneutics and exegesis, whose methods of argumentation are considered Christian-specific and predetermination in that tradition." (Nettleford 313)

Billy Joel joined a total of 3 bands before becoming a solo artist. The first group he joined was called the Echoes, a cover band that quickly gained popularity and would later be known as the Lost Souls.

Music plays a significant role in societies all over the world. It allows people of all ethnicities and backgrounds to express themselves. Different music genres help to inspire other artists to create new music that they would not have thought of before. In various ways, Britain and America have influenced and inspired one another for many years. Music was, and still is, a huge connecting factor between the two countries. The Beatles and Bob Dylan, two of the most famous artists of all time, demonstrate how Britain and America had a profound influence on each country’s music culture.

I’m going to be talking about why i think students should be allowed to have cell phone in class. Some people say that cell phones are a distraction but they should be allowed in school. I have very good points, evidence, and reasoning on why we should be able to have them. Some kids need to be in contact with their parents. Some parents text their kid everyday just checking on them and kids should be able to respond to their parent. Students would be less stressed out if they didn’t have to worry about a parent that might not come to the school and get there phone if kids were just able to have them out.

Rastafari is an African religion that is still relatively new. The religion was developed in the 1930s in Jamaica after Haile Selassie was named the King of Ethiopia. The followers of this religion believe that Selassie is God and that he will return all of the black people displaced from slavery and colonization to Africa. Bob Marley’s music and success helped spread the religion. The Rastafarians believe that black people are the chosen people of God. Some of the religious practices in the religion include smoking and inhaling marijuana. The purpose of the marijuana is to increase a person’s spiritual state of mind and awareness. Most Rastafarians have long

Bob Marley is a name most people know but his accomplishments and dedication to music is often overlooked. Bob was more than just a reggae artist, he was an inspiration to the country of Jamaica. He was a role model to the poverty stricken island and gave hope to many people. Bob was born on February 6, 1945 in his grandfather's house. He was the son of a poor farm girl and a British naval Captain. Soon after his birth Bob's father, Norval Marley, left his mother. He remained responsible and provided financial support and occasionally came back to see them. In the 50's a depression hit Jamaica and Bob followed his mother to West Kingston also known as Trenchtown. It was in Trenchtown were Bob's love for music began.

Rastafari is, before it is anything else, a way of life. It offers approaches and answers to real problems black people face in daily living; it promotes spiritual resilience in the face of oppressive poverty and underdevelopment. It produces art, music and cultural forms, which can be universally recognized and appreciated. More important, Rastafari provides a positive self-image, an alternative to people who need and cannot find or accept one elsewhere. Even with its black foundation and orientation, Rastafarianism is open to anyone, of any race, who chooses to discover and is able to accept it.

Although most of the nervous system is developed by the time a baby is born, the development extends beyond birth. The development of this system is complex and involves many processes and phases that form what we know as our nervous system, allowing humans to think, feel, move, and function in many different and unique ways. Through a biological scope, we know that there are three phases of the developmental process. This first phase occurs during the first week and is known as the “germinal stage, the next 7 weeks of pregnancy are the embryonic period, and the final 32 weeks (weeks 9-40) are the fetal period” (Rouse, 2016). At the embryonic stage “the inner cells rearrange themselves into a disk which the embryo forms” (Rouse, 2016). The

Reggae music was a big part of Jamaican culture. Many artists practiced the style of reggae and some of the artists like Bob Marley influenced and showed people internationally all about this music. It originated around the time that Jamaica was being attacked by European countries like Spain and native people being taken into slavery. Bob Marley was born after the time of slave trading but whites still effected the native people and this is how he got his inspiration for his music.
