Remember that song and remember how the last part was done? Was Bob
Marley the first rapper?

Hardly, since it was Neil Diamond who wrote and first performed it
back in '67 as a mellow country song. In 1969 Tony Tribe, a
little known Jamaican artist, had a British charts hit with his
eventually-to-be-raggae ska version. Other artists such as Vic Dana
and Roy Drusky made minor showings on the charts with the song in
various guises before UB40, a Brit rock/raggae band made it the super
hit classic we know today. I don't know when Marley glommed onto it,
but it was never really one of his songs.
