Bob Marley face pot artist edition produced by Kevin Francis Ceramics of Stoke-on-Trent, England, in a 2011 limited edition of 7. Robert Nesta Marley (1945-1981) was a Jamaican singer, musician, and songwriter. Considered one of the pioneers of reggae, his musical career was marked by fusing elements of reggae, ska, and rocksteady, as well as his distinctive vocal and songwriting style. Marley's contributions to music increased the visibility of Jamaican music worldwide, and made him a global figure in popular culture. Over the course of his career, Marley became known as a Rastafari icon, and he infused his music with a sense of spirituality. He is also considered a global symbol of Jamaican music and culture and identity, and was controversial in his outspoken support for democratic social reforms. The face pot quote, "No woman no cry.", is a reggae song by Bob Marley and the Wailers. The song was recorded in 1974 and released on the studio album Natty Dread. The royalty payments from the song were directed to a friend of Marley's who ran a soup kitchen in Trenchtown in order to keep the kitchen operating.
