Rarely does an event take place that brings together powerful global forces and talents from all walks of life.
Reggae icon Robert Nesta “Bob” Marley was the force that brought international stars such as Ziggy Marley, Snoop Dogg, Rick Fox, Holly Robinson Peete, artist Neville Garrick (designer of Bob Marley’s album covers), producer Lee Jaffe, Ras Michael, Rocky Dawuni, MC Lyte and members of the Marley family together on April 17.
The LA premiere of the wildly anticipated “Marley” a film directed by Kevin McDonald, presented by Magnolia Pictures at the Dome at ArcLight in Hollywood, CA, was truly an historic event.
On April 17, the city of Los Angeles issued a Certificate of Recognition to the family of Bob Marley saluting the release of “Marley,” which was simultaneously released on Facebook, iTunes, On Demand and in theaters worldwide on April 20.
