Default Re: Anyone know anything about reggae?

Peter Tosh came out with some good solo stuff after he left the Wailers, and before he got killed by a couple of homeless people he let live with him.

To be a little more accurate, he was killed by fellow Rastas for violating some core tenants of their culture. To a certain extent there is some resentment towards the Reggae musicians within the Rasta community because they often somewhat contradict their roots and what the movement is about.
I just so happen to know this because one of my classes is covering the Rastafari which are the group responsible for the creation of Reggae music.
