Redemption Song is a very touching popular song in my opinion for 3 reasons: 1.) this was Marley's last song before his death 2.) The overall message in relation to Marcus Garvey 3.) The song in relation to the Rastafari Movement. The song refers to a lot societal and political issues that have occurred in the past directly effecting black people. "Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds" (Redemption Song)In this song Bob Marley is informing his people that the only way to beat Babylon is to redeem ourselves spiritually, physically and mentally.
