The medicinal marijuana was the only thing that helped Joe have ANY type of appetite and was 'dry heaving' in his third story apartment in Koreatown/Mid-Wilshire five blocks or so from me. Radiation, chemotherapy and a diet of Jucy's Jamaican, fresh juices and the medicinals helped the cancer into remission. The last events he started consuming alcohol and decided only to be better not bitter when it was too late already. Better not Bitter!
Joe suffered prostate cancer and received approximately $16,000 per year for the rights to his songs and radio spins and was pleasantly happy. Additionally, he would LOVE to perform live shows and had a magnificent team behind him.
Gone too soon, 58 years old.
His daughter Marcia and grad daughter Marsha celebrate the Rastafari way of life.
Marsha has organized many peace gatherings hand in hand with her mother.
Thank you to Joe Higgs' Granddaughter, Marsha 'Black Goddess Madhane' Barrett for posting this incredible video on your wall today on Facebook, avoided Joe with ganja but he had SO much pain, he was so broke it was INSANE he helped so many yet felt such pain Jah Rastafari they do remain Stand for something or just act lame Savage beast will prey nature is always the same
Absolutely stunning from Jamaica's most UNDERATED musician, Bob Marley's tutor and again I say his 'Lie Of Contradiction ' album is one of the best ever, available again on Pressure Sounds. Meanwhile, thanks again, brother. Peace X

Thank you sincerely for posting this!
A cornered tiger will only scratch
The door is open buckle or open the hatch
Whether on a boat or on the land
Teach the youth right to understand
The length we have on Earth is not for ours to chose
Spend it loving to the core what have you got to lose
Higgs legacy thanks for creating such a beautifully moving music
Stand strong too many still confuse it
