It has been rumoured that members of the Tosh family have allegedly pawned the singer’s treasured pieces of memorabilia.

Reports are that, about five months ago, a Tosh family member went into the store to pawn the items.

McDermitt reportedly jumped at the opportunity and snatched the Grammy for $4k and the guitar for $2k more.

It is understood that the relative was pawning the items due to a family battle over the Peter Tosh’s estate.

  1. What a ting death is. All that a man laid up on earth him has not the power to do a thing about it from the grave. King Solomon word forever true. O bumboclaat o rassclaat….

      1. everybody proud a de marley museum…why it couldn’t be inclusive to other great Jamaican musicians? a no bob alone did a do reggae music. items of other musical greats could be housed there too.

        rita have money fi pamper man and buy barbados island, so she have enough to add a wing to the museum as that of music and arts and buy back these items. Jamaica government can a pay cell phone bill fi one nyga minister then dem can purchase back the items too.

        1. True talk, im thinking it cudda go up there since he was part a dem..Rita sickly now so thats that…ina di meanwhile people cudda try get back this grammy because it is really a shame

          1. Only Shaggy me would really put me money pon fi carry those items HOME. As slack as babsy can be me would tout her fi do it too cause she usually hell bent pon culture as bad as things be wid har.

            Jr. Gong waddup? think you can sort out dah thing yah?

            Btw, Met, was the estate being contested? If so, that family member is a theft and should be jailed and cut out of the estate.

          2. Yes this need further investigation and Babsy would really do her best fi bring it back she is a good minister of culture fi true..The Marleys dem should step forward because this is a part a dem tuh suh dem fi do Jamaica di courtesy

  2. Kingsly Cooper set up a museum for him in Kingston why they didn’t bring it there..I guess it’s better if someone in America owne it..

    1. It should incorporate other greats under the one roof. If Bob was alive it would have been just that.

      1. Exactly cause Jamaica dont have the money to maintain more dan one place..they can extend on the museum then

  3. Ahm, the Tosh family needs to come together so that Peter’s legacy can be properly honored. As the Marley family did to Honour Bob. The other day Kingsley Cooper was trying to put something together to display Tosh items & it look like somebody run to first them & sell them out for little a nothing, smh. I’m sure other investors must have approached them over the years as well. It has nothing to do with Rita spending her hard earned legacy how she wants. She alone did take the bun, late night itch up all over, touring all over with Bob and the disrespect from fellow Jamaicans who would readily dis her while honoring that hoe Cindy.

    1. Girl lay off the Rita praises. She earn every bun cause she and de man married only in name not heart or spirit gtfoh

      1. She had kids for him so them must did sleep together at some point. And I will continue giving her props for her role in his life – she was with him from him did work a factory in Detroit right thru to when them come shoot up the house on Hope Road. Nuff wife – whether real real wife or name only nah do that.

        She has also contributed a lot to Jamaican music and to many worthy causes

        1. Gwan wid the white wash wives club version if it mek you secure :ngakak :ngakak :ngakak :ngakak

          As fi real wife…she should a tek the phuck and kibba like a real wife and no accuse de I of raping har in a written text when him can’t defend himself. Ugly bitch get a back shot and a complain. Rita fans mucky like har :kr

        1. Which devouted rasta you know divorce, worst in a 60s, 70s & 80s? Rita did a theft Bob and tek phuck pon schedule from Bob and others.

          I guess the jacket don’t exist :travel

  4. Heard a white man saying that lTosh was a Bob Marly want to be … Had to let him know that Peter Tosh was the only trained musician he taught them about instruments…. Mi know some ppl a go jump pon mi but bredda Bob cah sing like Peter or Bunny
