With Bob's sons, Ziggy & Damian, practically playing sidemen to very little of the Marley songbook, it was the "leads" by the likes of the Hawaiian Bruno Mars & the Brit, Sting, who upstaged the maestro's music. Shame on the Grammy hype and die-lution!
...at the very least, "Could You Be Loved" made an audience sing-along appearance on the billing.

...Mr Marley's popularity is borne out in the fact that his Legend album — a compilation released three years after he died in 1981 — is regarded as reggae's best-selling set with 25-million copies worldwide.

That Mr Marley's music is as powerful today as it was in the 1970s is testament to his talent, perceptiveness and penchant for perfection — characteristics that are not easily found among artistes, particularly the current generation.
