Patron saint to white people with dreads everywhere Nesta Robert Marley -- Bob Marley, dude -- was born in Jamaica on this day in 1945. He wasn't the only high-profile musician to enter the world on Feb. 6, though. William Bruce Rose, Jr., better known as Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose, was born in Lafayette, Indiana in 1962. Meanwhile, internet prank punchline Rick Astley was born this day in 1966.
