KY-MANI
MARLEY “My message is always to deal with love, peace and unity. That’s the most powerful thing, and if people can feel that on these tracks then I have done something right”. Fils With such a living past, Bob Marley’s conviction and passion for music unintentionally was passed to the lives of his offspring and has allowed the Marley name to remain relevant amongst the hierarchy of the reggae sound. Ky-mani Marley is the second youngest of Bob Marley’s eleven children. While bearing the Marley name, Ky-mani’s childhood told a different story. |

Settling
in America at a young age, Ky-mani was raised in the inner-city in a
2 bedroom home along with 8 family members. Being exposed to an urban
lifestyle, Ky-mani adopted the attitude that all people are equal no
one is above or beneath him. This attitude has become the motto for the
way he lives his life today. Humble. Soft-Spoken. Sincere. Loyal. Honest.
Genuine. These are the makings of Ky-mani
Marley. |

As a child Ky-mani had no interest following in the footsteps of his world-famous father and was more inclined to play sports. As a teenager Ky-mani toyed with rapping and deejaying yet, his love for sports would overshadow his inherent musical talent. However, the seed that was planted by Bob’s legacy sprouted in 1997 when Ky-mani teamed up with hip hop artist Pras of The Fugees and collaborated on Eddy Grant Electric Avenue. This would be the defi ning moment in Ky-manis journey which would lead him to pick up the torch his iconic father lit so many years ago. Since, Ky-mani has tapped into his artistic gift and has embraced the idea of sharing his insight through song. |
