Junior Murvin, had a unique voice which will never be duplicated. I am disappointed to know, he was suffering with diabetes, no money was coming his way, yet other people were benefiting from his music. Rip. You will never be forgotten.
He was the Jamaican Curtis Mayfield. I wouldn’t call it unique but it was definitely important for Black Music for an Islander to sing such a crisp falsetto.
I’ve been told that meaning poor man can’t smile mi fadda told us all dem time but if we where ever poor we as pickny didn’t know it we grew up to be good
Hector he is saying how he has been misled all these yrs by rastafari cult and he needs true salvation through jesus christ and that he believed Bob Nestor Marley was a kool dude!

opušten je skroz, i pod godinama, pa mu glas se možda navlaš tako i čini nespojiv s njegovim trademark hi-pitch-tone vokalom. Al se čuje potencijal, i u sporom govoru čak. Ako poslušaš malo pažljivije čut ćeš da mu je amplituda vibracije u visokom registru
Can you believe this is the fist time I really took a good look at him and he looks like me. I am a underground artist lived in America for 25 years now in Jamaica for 19 years NEVERTHELESS I can sing do rap very well never bus nevertheless my last name is Smith just like his. I also have a very deep voice and can hit thoes highnotes". Bless if you want to help what I think I just uncovered. Bless.
U notice how real and believable this man sound unlike some of them that talk about Bob with envy and negativity I won’t say no names you guys know the few that I’m talking about!
Thanks James, hi Fanta, at some point in his career, bob Marley knew that he was being used by Babylon, but he didn't care , he believed his message was much more powerful, please read "catch a fire" by Timothy white, originally published in 1983, one of the best accurate biographies out there on bob Marley!☮️💟👊🏼🌻
me love you patrois so well. thanks sir murvin, for you spoke the truth and fur de streets we live. too many crooked cops just want to get paid. thank you.
@@remotefaith if you have to ask, you'll never know. Jk, but honestly, go fuckin study bob marley's life and music if you want to know. Also bob marley wasn't murdered. He died of cancer that exist in his foot/toe, he was told that in ordered to slow the cancer, there would need to be an amputation. Bob Marley refused; had he gotten the amputation, he wouldn't have been able to dance, which is the exact reason why he refused the amputation. As a result, the cancer continue to spread, and he passed on. This is the actual factual truth; these guys above are on some conspiracy shit To clarify, though, Bob Marley did have multiple scuffles throughout his life, and a lot of it was because he was preaching the word of Jah. This is factual. Many consider him a false prophet, they were envious and they hate him for the message he was trying to convey through is music. People DID in fact TRY to kill Bob Marley. He attracted gangs/militias that were against his message. Bob moved a lot of people with his message, his music, his soul. He had mad haters, and they pulled up on his ass with ak47's and all that. It's all true, I know this because I did a study on Bob Marley for school years back. He was a very powerful dude, his message was heard worldwide, many people in jamaica still actually consider him to be a prophet. The message was true and pure, Bob Marley was inarguably the most honest and transparent artist/musician of all time. He led the life he preached. He gave all of his money away to locals. The people who capitalized on Bob's estate after his death were in no way shape or form affiliated with his family until 2001 when the studio owner who owned all bobs estate and masters finally handed the rights over to rita and bob's 11 kids. Since then, they've pushed a shit ton of merch and like half of his kids continue his legacy of music and I believe theyre all doing well, but that initial mass amount of cash bob reaped during his life is not around anymore, his family didnt inherit an ass load of money right off the bat. They had to use their newfound rights and start fresh selling merch to finally get the earnings they all deserved. Hopefully itll pay them forever. All facts no cap. Bob wasnt murdered

@@ReggaeImmer When he sings most people can understand, just like Bob Marley, but when he talks it's difficult for some people to understand the patois. Obviously they know his music that's why they call him a legend. Spread love and understanding
He was saying he perceived Bob to be a serious person not one to be smiling all the time or to be talking up to people he was more focus on his struggle , but even through all that he was a observant man because he didn't know Bob knew who he was until one day he an Lee perry went to Bob's house and Bob hail him by using the title of his most famous track
Nobody neva gi yu di transcrip? LOL, dat no easy, yu know. One haffi sidung an a listen an a write out di ting, yu see weh mi a seh? A no just one an two ting Junior Murvin a speak ya so.
James Mensah : What do you mean?!!...you say this with such conviction are you sure? Or are you asking a question?!! Well let me enlighten you: yes this is junior Murvin, the “police and thief” singer from Portland Jamaica!... you are mixing him up with junior Marvin bob Marley’s lead guitarist. Remember it’s Murvin and Marvin!! Please take note!!
Police and Thieves is BOSS. A massive tune that hits the spot EVERY time! Thanks, Junior Murvin. Rest easy.
Rest In Peace Mr Murvin. Thank you for the great timeless music you gave us.
Junior Murvin, had a unique voice which will never be duplicated. I am disappointed to know, he was suffering with diabetes, no money was coming his way, yet other people were benefiting from his music. Rip. You will never be forgotten.
Thats fucked up huh
He was the Jamaican Curtis Mayfield.

An absolute unique vocalist, who will be sadly missed...R.I.P.
Original Donovan whoa didn’t knkw he died
It's awful: some people profit from the talent of others unscrupulously while the originator suffer and die slowly. RIP Brother Junior Murvin.
RIP Junior Murvin an outstanding singer.

Its Robert Nesta Marley..
Junior Mervin, Jah bless rest in peace
I think this needs sub titles. you'd have to be familiar with patrois to really understand.
I was thinkin the same thing
I agree.
It's not patrios, it's just Jamaican dialect. Patrios has few elements of English. Mostly to describe specific things.
You're not black Caribbean if you can't understand what he's saying.
@@TheRealist2024 exactly. I'm from california.
How could he sing those tunes with a fairly deep voice he has here? rip

Yeah you are right. It sounds like he was talking about the real Bob Marley and not some hype nonsense that is controversial just to get kicks
I agree brother!! You don't even have to say the names, I have an idea of some of the names you might be thinking about!!!

Murvin Marley I live
God Bless Your Soul

How do we combat diabetes in our people? From Africa to the Caribbean, to South America to North America back to Africa. R.I.P Junior Murvin!!

His lyrics were ahead of the time. Police and thief have the same brain, violence. Even research out there now to support this. Who knew?
Junior the legendary lead guitarist🙂? Bob the legend the most loving mon

This gentleman sang wonderful songs but I think he seems not to have looked after himself. He can't smile properly because ...
He was a diabetic, and unfortunately, with that disease some people loose their teeth.
Tired to hear about him
He's just keeps saying the samething he's not to intelligent
Can't fix your teeth???
His teeth smell very nice
