Growing Popularity Becomes Stronger

With popularity comes a seed that starts the growth of it all. In the case of the genre of music, reggae, Bob Marley would be the sprouting seed. While he was with his group The Wailers he made an Album called Burnin. This album was the cause of spreading the popularity of reggae music all over the world. His hard work and contributions to the music that he put out in the 36 years of life that he had makes him the most popular artist to ever exist in the reggae world. Popularity in the United States began in 1973 with a concert in San Francisco that the Wailers performed at. There was a radio station there that broadcasted the band live.
