Not overrated, but not very good.

I would create a poll about this.

I think not, as a matter of fact, his album survival is a fantastic peace of art, have a listen if you haven't already

Not only that, he played plenty of shows live while he was affected by cancer. He shall always be remembered...

It´s an overrated genre to begin with.

Some of the hits may be overplayed and, to those casual listeners, much of the genre may sound similar, but get into the early Marley, especially Rebel Soul and the "Scratch" Perry produced stuff.  There you may here the amalgam of influences and the true spirit of the music.  African, Caribbean, Creole, blues, jazz and more......a real melting pot of sounds and really uplifting stuff.
