The No Woman No Cry Infographic charts the iconic Reggae musician's influence on the music world using interesting information about both his life and career. In light of Amy Winehouse's recent and tragic death at the age of 27, the timing of this infographic feels perfect, as Marley also sadly left the world at the young age of 36.
The most interesting fact this infographic offers on the singer and Rastafarian is the number of children he fathered, which totals 11, plus one adopted son. Additionally, it outlines the root of Marley's marijuana smoking, an activity which played a crucial role in his character and music.
Implications - The influence of Bob Marley on music and his role as the founding father of Reggae as a crossover musical style is undeniable. The artist also put the Rastafarian religion and culture on the map, and his devoted fans and followers keep his legend alive through these practices.
