From a USA Today article:
Grammy executive producer Ken Ehrlich "is especially pleased with a Bob Marley tribute starring Bruno Mars, Rihanna, Sting and an as-yet-unconfirmed combination of Marley descendants that may include Ziggy, Steven and Damian."

I really thought the performance was lame and would have loved to see Ziggy and Damian play a larger part. I did LOVE the way the audience responded showing once again how relevant and revered Bob Marley is to the music industry and fans today.
During Sting's segment you can tell some of the younger 1s like drake are like "should I know this song?" haha

I could've done without Rihanna and Bruno - I would've like to see them replaced with Jimmy Cliff. It seemed like a tribute to Bob in name only, with the Marley's on as almost an after thought. For me, it was just a-rite.
I always dig it when Sting picks up the bass, though.

Completly agree.....Coulda done without Riannha and Bruno, really dug Sting. I still a little lost as too what would not have been possible without Bob Marley, as Bruno Mars was saying at the end. Did he mean musical offspring or reggae music?

LL cool J said a few nice things about Bob and how reggae has influenced todays music, then introduced the "tribute" section and then I was loooooooost!!!! Over half of the four minute tribute was taken up by Bruno and Sting singing their own music, wasn't it? Seen a glance of Ziggy and Damian and a little too much of Rhianna. I guess the thought was nice, but who ever put it together really sucked! But that's just my opinion.

when sting followed bruno mars, i thought that was fitting..
in the sense that, that bruno mars tune borrows heavily from that police sound.
i would call that tune a police cover if i didnt know any better.
my 'complaint' if you want to call it that, is that rhianna didnt really carry the spirit.. no soul to me.. flat. but thats a first world problem in the grand scheme of things..
i agree though.. ziggy and damien both crushed..

I definitely could have done without Rihanna and Bruno. How do you start a Bob tribute with new Bruno Mars song that is played on the radio every 15 minutes???
I thought Sting's part was sweet. I have a sweet digital copy of Walking on the Moon that I believe Sly and Robbie did (not sure who's on vocals). But for me, Rihanna blew the whole thing. That was by far the worst rendition of Could You Be Loved I've ever heard. Ziggy and Damian coming out at the end saved it as much as it could be saved. I'm glad they made the effort to pay respects to Bob, it reminds the masses that Reggae is still alive and has a future. But all in all it just got me more excited to see Damian on Saturday June 22nd...can't wait

It was like the Illuminati was guiding the show. Rhianna looks almost white. Where was the RED GOLD AND GREEN, the flags or some nice real footage to pay respect to BOB show JA!!! It was weired watching the performers. Does not surprise mi very Hollywood. The Greatest ting is to know the real vibes of music people and culture. Maybe this will reach some of them to look deeper into a real message.

well, i hope maxie gets a set free of marleys et al, but if he joins them for some encore deal, cool, and i mean that, it could be cool. but max does not need to collab with the marleys, by any stretch, to hit his mark at this festival.
boomayea mr. romeo all the while.

I wasn't implying that they are performing together, only that they will all be on the Valley Stage on Saturday. Personally, I hope that Max Romeo performs in the evening and gets at least 90 minutes to perform.
Agreed 100%
And thanks for the info Daniel, I'm not going to be able to wait til June!

i thought you were hoping for a collaboration which, like i said, could be interesting. but again, i'm way more interested in his official solo set...sounds like you are too!

Indeed. Max Romeo is my most anticipated performance of the entire festival regardless of who they add to the lineup from here on out. Feb 1st was the most difficult day of my life and seeing him on the lineup that morning was a small ray of light that helped brighten that day if only briefly.
