Robert Nesta "Bob" Marley, OM (6 February 1945 – 11 May 1981) began his musical career in 1963 with The Wailers, where he forged a distinctive songwriting and vocal style that would later resonate with audiences worldwide.

After the Wailers disbanded in 1974, Marley pursued a solo career that culminated in the release of the album Exodus in 1977, which established his worldwide reputation and produced his status as one of the world's best-selling artists of all time, with sales of more than 75 million records.

‘Redemption Song’ was Marley's last single before his death on May 11, 1981. It sums up his life and what he stood for in his songs: freedom and redemption.
