Realistically, Bob Marley was probably not a fan of gay people. Jamaica has been labelled as “the most homophobic place on earth” (by Time Magazine in 2006) and most Jamaicans are strongly against homosexuality. Sodomy is still outlawed there. In Bob Marley’s time it would have been even less acceptable than it is now. He would have been among the minority of Jamaicans if he considered a gay lifestyle to be even remotely acceptable.
That said, Bob never wrote, said, or sang anything that would indicate he disliked gay people. The phrase “man to man is so unjust,” from his song “Who The Cap Fit” has been wrongly referred to as an anti-gay lyric, but it isn’t at all. This is an old Jamaican proverb that predates Bob Marley by a long time and even appeared in other songs prior to his. It means “man is unjust to man,” that is “people are unjust to each other”, not that a situation of “man to man” is wrong. There is nothing in any of Bob Marley’s music that is anti-gay. Instead, most of his songs promote messages of peace, unity, and love for all people.
Also in Bob’s defense, when Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh quit the Wailers in 1974, Bunny said their decision to leave was because producer Chris Blackwell wanted them to play to gay audiences in American clubs. Bob Marley, as we know, did not leave the band - so if Blackwell really did want that, then Bob must have been okay with it. He seems to have truly lived by the philosophy depicted in his songs.
okay, thanks, leve de nuance
