Entering this Week with Positivity and Feeling Rich in LIFE #OneBob. Thoughts?

Carib Cinema, Kingston, Jamaica

Bob Marley: One Love (2024)
I am happy with the Movie based on what it was chosen to portray.

There are so many aspects of Bob’s life, especially the lead up to the shooting and the Smile Jamaica concert that could have gotten more attention, but with 1.5hrs, perhaps a budget and keeping us focused on THE MESSAGE, with brilliant acting from Kingsley Ben-Adir and the overall cast, I am happy. Kingsley’s jawline was a bit too clean though eh

Anyhow, it showed the heaviness Bob had to carry during his time away in London, not only as an artiste, but as a person, a totally different perspective from the documentary on Netflix, ReMastered: Who Shot The Sheriff?

I rewatched the documentary immediately after returning home from the movie.

Every artiste struggles with going on tour, missing their family, but tour dates are scheduled eh? Bob Marley: One Love (2024) captured how Bob was basically forced into Exile. He missed home and his family, but couldn’t return out of fear for his life as Jamaica went through its worst times yet, overcome by political violence. He approached making the album, EXODUS as if he had a deadline to deliver THE MESSAGE, which he actually unknowingly had.

Rita GOT her flowers. The documentary brushed over her getting shot and the movie really captured how serious it was, how much worse it could have been and the impact it had on Bob and his decision to even go into Exile. The ups and downs in their relationship and extended family tree was not unnecessarily dwelled upon and was depicted respectfully.

The irony of not knowing who his father was, yet basically ending up being killed by that same bloodline cut deep. BUT, he lived a full, RICH life and most importantly, delivered THE MESSAGE that will live on for Years.

Many including myself thought he should be a hero, be on money etc., but after watching this movie, it has resonated that there is only #OneBob. He is more than a Hero, He is A True Legend.

One Love.

Suga

We Got Early Dibs at Chive Restaurant for V-Day! Where Did You Go?

I Ain’t gonna lie, we werecomatosed from Chive Restaurant (Ig: @chivejamaica) yesterday.

Check out the highlights here!

https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3WAw0COEUp/?igsh=cTg3MTA1MTk0ZHps

We went for a late brunch close to 1pm, but ended up ordering from their V-Day Menu.
We had our usual Appetizer Faves, Chive style Mussels and Marlin Canapes, followed by a Savoury Seafood Risotto and Whole Lobster Themidor. Chive dishes thrive with Herbs and the right amount of Spice. We thoroughly enjoyed it all and since we sighted the freshly made Desserts from we walked in, we saved space.

Tiramisu for me, where ladyfingers that were not spared and a decadent, Rich Chocolate Cake for Mr. Suga.

Then homeward bound to our Pawlentine, AnnieB

Hope you had a good one, but remember to Love Everyday, starting with Yourself first.

XoXo,
Suga
