In this clip, Damian Marley discusses how his parents met and the untimely death of his iconic father, Bob Marley. Damian recalls early moments of his childhood with his older siblings and reflects on how those relationships were fostered. He also reveals the origin of his nickname Jr. Gong, and how dancehall music deeply influenced his style of music today. While unpacking the backstory to his second album, Halfway Tree, Marley goes in depth about how oppression and social inequity dominates his music. He talks about how his life, though privileged, lay at the crux of the "Halfway Tree" which divided Damian's town in Jamaica along class lines. - บันเทิง

...but then hes eyes gives it all away that he isint..
@@chelseacox4004 3 no
vlad don’t forget you’re a piece of shit
Vlad u know u work for the feds don't u
This man has his ear to the street and more people should pay attention. He's bringing spirituality to the streets where it's needed most. My favorite of all the Marley's.
Positive...
Jah bless
Okay
His father definitely had his ear tuned into the struggle and the street life as well if you go back and listen to deeper cuts.. but agreed.. Damian offers a perspective through his music barely anyone else is even close to
Aw
I can’t even imagine how proud Bob Marley would be if he saw how he’s youngest son turned out to be. 🥺 I wish he was alive.
I can bet he’s very proud. Jr Gong is no doubt Bob’s legacy. Just like how King David had Solomon as a bastard but he was his legacy it’s the same here. God blessings doesn’t come gift wrapped how we would expect.
All of them turn out good
There’s something profoundly powerful and sincere about this man
AMEN!!! That's what struck me first and still does
Hes honest
Very respectful and humble man. Big up! Jr. Gong the youngest veteran!
Rastas in general
When he mentioned his father died when he was 2 and I saw the tears about to fall from Damian's eyes...I cried like a baby. I need to meet this man.
So easy to know who would be easy to get along with when you see their comments. Praise YAH I felt this one
I think he just red eyed from the herb
@@xhildhood Exactly. Been asked about it his whole life but now he's gonna cry.
45 seconds in, you could definitely see him holding it
I thought I could see that in his eyes
Damian is a lovely man, he is so like his dad in his mannerisms and speech. Spooky. Bob would be so very proud of him.
He sounds so much like him.
yeah damian in sound very much like his dad and feel
Bob said he didn't really want his children to follow in his foot steps,. He wanted them to go to school
Yes! To me he’s the one who’s most like Bob.. Ziggy sounds like Bob singing but Damian he’s all the mannerisms and kindness
Big up to their mothers. It makes sense to put the children first.
Damian Marley's story needs to be recognized man!
These interviews needs way more views. Bob is living through his children you can hear it in their voices and songs.
A. A Bruh, you can hear that too???????
Yeah shawty, its pure !
What are you talking about? Damian is a VERY talented Rasta singer!
Nunya Bizness No no he could never sing ike his father.
Damien’s story is Bobs legacy. Peace and love to the Marley’s.
His accent 😍😍😍 & so poised
He mentioned Halfway Tree,my mom told me that’s where she grew up in Jamaica 🇯🇲💪🏽
He's so normal, and I mean that in the best possible way, he's honest and has absolutely no airs and graces. He was raised well and is so well spoken. I really admire him for going his own way as in style of music , obviously before I really started listening to his music I did just think of him as Bob Marley's son but he's so talented in his own right and deserves so much recognition for his talent. I just love interviews with him, his father would be so proud of his humbleness ✌️🌻
All of Bob kids have talent and come out good
Just saw him & Stephen last night on their tour. I was blown away. The talent & energy was 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The Marley brothers are amazing natrually talented. Just like their father.
Bob had far more musical talent , there can be only one, his son's are not as good
Bobs grandson skip sounds exactly like him
I saw Ziggy in the same jean suit as Bob Marley.. unbelievable 🥴
@@351clevelandmodifiedmotor4 As a musician, Stephen is beyond Bob. It's not even close. I love Bob and all.
@@ervinboyd281 you don't know shit, shut up
A very humble and conscious guy!!👍🏽🇯🇲
His mummy isn't humble.And he isn't that privilaged. HIS EX STEP DAD IS A THIEVING CUT OF A LAWYER SO YOU WOULDN'T EXPECT HIM TO not attend a prep school.I literally saw and heard his mummy insulted a hungry peasant.ain 1986 in lens happy supermarket as he begged her something from her heavily rammed tolley.She and A gal name Donna Felts were joint owners of the Craft shop upstairs the plaza.From that day I wish upon her omen.Her life wouldn't have taken the trajectory it had.Had she not met male. CB YOU ARE A WHITE CUT YOU HIT A NUN AT IMMUCA CONCEPT. I HATE THOSE WHITE JAM FULLER'S. THEY ARE NOTHING SPECIAL
@@swahilimandela5610 what's his mother got to do with him? Because his mother is pale skinned, beggers in Jamaica will follow behind you and constantly beg and after a while it begins to annoy you if you cant even walk down the road without someone begging 15-20 times each day. The Bible says it's a sin to beg and those who dont work wont eat. Imagine if 30 people begged her something every time each day, how would she even feed herself?
I dont think you understand how Jamaicans think, but the beggars are worse and most Jamaicans think that even the very shoes on your feet you must take them off and give them to someone straightaway if someone asks you for them just because they think you can buy another pair the same day. Some Jamaicans can be very self-absorbed that way.
I was at a funeral in Jamaica last month and was wearing goloshes/wellington/water boots and a woman was looking at them and saying 'oh your feet are really small, much smaller than mine' meaning if my feet were the same size as hers or bigger she would have asked me for the boots I had on and be expected to have them straight away otherwise she would have cussed me and called me a 'mean english' to shame me, or 'you live in England, you can always buy another pair' etc.
These are the things Jamaicans do to shame and beg and embarrass you when they *think* you have more than them just because you live overseas. They wont do it to the tourists anymore because they know the police will lock them up if a tourist complains about beggars, that's why tourists dont have that happen to them.
I have seen the nasty covetous behaviour in Jamaica and it becomes draining after a while, even family members will do it. why do you think most of the younger Marleys dont live there?
THAT is why Cindy cussed off the beggar, because if you give to one, they will brag to other beggars and those other beggars will come to beg when they see them running errands too. I have seen beggars only walk up to light-skinned people in Jamaica, because they assume light/pale-skinned people are rich and some are rude enough to even tap their shoulder and they know they cant to that to dark-skinned Jamaicans.
@J K This was a long time ago She hadn't cussed him.She answered the man so condescending. AND HER EX HUSBAND IS A NASTY THIEVING BASTARD. LIGHT SKINNED IS NOTHING THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND AUTHENTIC SHADE US THE BLUE BLACK SHADE.RITA MORLEY SAID IN AN INTERVIEW I WAS TOLD.SHE WAS VERY DISDAINFULLY RIDICULED FOR HER SHADE THE DEGRADING TERM'BLACKIE TUTU".AND THE INSULTING SAYING'ANYRING TOO BLACK ISN'T GOOD".I BOY GUESS WHAT YELLOW SKINNED. EVERYTHING COMES FROM BLACK.AS THE BRILLIANT GROUP SAND BLACK UHURU'THE ABORIGINAL RACE OF AUSTRALIA IS THE ONLY RACE WHICH IN MY OPINION, COULD SERVE AS THE COMMON ANCESTOR FOR ALL MODERN RACES"(AUTHOR KEITH :ADAM IN OCHRE:INSIDE ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIA 1956
Love his response to about not living in ghetto but also still caring. Humble brother, I love him for that. ❤💚💛
HOW IS HE A BROTHA, HE'S WHITE !
Straight up
@@JermarWilliamson-vo7px his grandfather is biologically white and his grandmother shes 🇯🇲 jamaican , his mom is white biologically .
@@sammyb.randall5006 dang I never really thought about that so technically he is 75% white 😯
It’s an expression clown@@JermarWilliamson-vo7px
I could watch conversations with Jamaican accent all day, its so pleasing to hear it! So smooth!
Bob Marley didn't have sons... he had disciples. Love the hat
100%
Respect ✊
In deed
Exactly 🌎👤
100% frfr
When I was a young teenager, I always thought he was soooooooo handsome. 😍😍😍😍
I liked this dude before, but there is something about just sitting, watching and listening to this interview, (as opposed to his music only,) that just took it to another level for me, Big up the junior gung.
Respect
You felt that too
My favourite accent in the whole world is Jamaican.
It makes me chilled just listening 🤔. Yeah mon!!
it is...all Caribbean acents be dope asf, try Trinidadian
Me too without a doubt.
I grew up with Jamaicans it rubbed on to me 😊😄
🤮🤮 fukkk nooo. Irratating af
The voice for me... He sounds like his dad❤😂
When he said “great!” I felt that. To win a Grammy so early in his career. On only the second album. Bob marleys blood but his sons has there own talent. They are truly talented.
Your father's spirit is so strong and resonates in all of you. He is your spiritual guide and mentor. May his blessed love shine on you always ❤💛💚
And do not call anyone on earth 'father,' for you have one Father, and he is in heaven.
Matthew 23:9
10Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Christ.…
Omg ur sooo right
Damion grew up in upper class suburbia with Cindy and her first husband, a politician with the Jamaica Labour Party. He did not start performing with Bob's children with Rita, but with his social peers (children of his mother and step father's friends.) Dancehall was the big influence on youngsters of all classes, including the gentry. While there were conscious DJs who advocated morals, Damion started out imitating Shabba Ranks' cocksman genre, and deejayed about his father (Bob) being a Bedroom Bully. When he started to work with Stephen Marley, his lyrics changed and became more socially critical, and Stephen's excellent production helped make him a star.
Bob Marley passed his gift and talent to his kids🙏I really wish I could of met bob marley🥺I will always be a Bob marley fan💖I love you bob marley,You will never be forgotten.
@Jessica Johnson, Wouldn't we all. He was a man ahead of his time.
I like how the family honors their father, Bob Marley. Each sibling brings something to the table. They expand my heart and make me hopeful for the future.. The Shabazz Family loves you
I was 6 years old when my father got killed .Never knew him,but just remember Damien OG still here with you and your siblings
🙏🏾🙏🏾😭😭😭😭😭
Rip Bob Marley 🙏😢
Yt? By t.v.
I really love this man. I met him in Montego Bay back in 2004 when he, Ziggy and Stephen came to Club Inferno for a concert. Very grassroots and deep Prince. Much love and respeck to Jr. Gong😇💛💯💪🔥👑💰
Respect Gong u r sure doing ur father proud...such an inspiration
His speaking voice is very similar to the one of his father. And his manerism too, the way he moves his head when he says "right"..
*I went to Bob Marleys home 56 hope road...it is absolutely Amazing!!! To stand in the studio where Bob played and to see his his home in general you ha e to experience the museum!!! Kingston is rough though*
Heaven Lee you telling me , I grew up there.
I went there to and got to meet Jr. Gong on Jamrock reggae cruise
When you say Kingston is too rough, what do u mean. Too much crime, unsafe? I am hoping to be there.
@@prettyabernathy1332 omggg reallyyy
I Was there a month ago and it Was a beautiful experience, im planning yo Go back soon
Gong looked so militant at the start, the moderator dare not asked him any foolishness! LOL!
But vladtv don't stray to hard. He ain't known for puff pieces, he'll get deep. He just know how to talk and keep it amicable!
@@russellpaloor8225 I agree and that is part of what makes people want to get to know him, I bet. He would be such an interesting person to just spend time with and learn the world from because of the depth. His smile lights up the world though, when it is there!
You are right lol. Damian don't brook nuh foolishness in any of his interviews lol.
Real ting yeah...Rasta nuh joke,bredda
Was thinkin same
There Will Always Be A Space For The Marley Families Music In My Heart and Soul
Rita took care of them all
Queen is as Queen does! And still doing
Such a strong lady
Nicola Ablett
You re a ( BULL. 🦥 SH💩TTER )
@@ameard9801 shut up bitch
Rita Marley a real one!!! Mother Earth!!!
I love him...makes my heart beat faster..and I tear up just listening to him speak🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲😍😍😍
I must admit, I have a bit of a crush on Damian myself! He and Julian are the most handsome sons, IMHO. I like both of their music, Damian is my favorite as his music is so spiritual.
He is sooo sexy
His mustache make him look like he always serious.
Belm Stray - it’s a serious tache mate.
Belm Stray its legendary
Belm Stray he is so chilled u got to meet him in person
😂😂😂
That's so true
Such a humble soul.
" I care! That's really it!" Genius is often really simple!
Jr Gong producing some of the finest hits on the planet. Much thanks and praise.
I am impressed with this family as a whole. Every interview I see with Damian or any other member of the fam shows how respectful they were of their fathers and mothers. One heck of a hard working family. They were taught well.
The epitome of a lovely blended family ...
Such a blessing to be alive in a time where bob Marley’s sons are making music. Proper Rasta music.
Damian has really struggled to cut his own cloth from the mains...humble as he keeps it,he does it well.Bless up rasta!!👊🏾
what mean it that…
@@regix1859 "struggled to cut his own cloth from the mains" meaning it has taken much dedication and work for damian to forge his own identity beyond the legacy of his family name, and he's done an admirable job of it
@@jumpyourbone thanks sir or boo…
Bless up JR Gong🙏🏾👊🏽, you are truly your fathers son and you diversified into your own awesome style. I have and will continue to support your music my brother 👊🏽 one day I would be blessed to meet you Ras🙏🏾
His voice sounds exactly like his dads
No, not at all
I owe my life to the music. If not for certain songs i would have died at an abusive husbands hand. The words still echo in my head. If you can not do what other people have done that you shall sit there and die. Selassie words have hit my ears previously but, the song came to Me when i needed strength the most. I thank you. Mr Marley. You are a treasure to the world. I hope for you nothing but greatness. Bless.
This was a beautiful interview until the end. Damian felt like he was coming for his character you could see him tense up but then handled it with heart.
Well Said & Done Congratulations Damian... You're Absolutely Sweet & Adorable... You're Everything Of Your Dad... He's So Proud Of You... You're Definitely Bless With Lovely Parents... Excellent Interview... Best Wishes To You Guys... Rest In Perfect Great Legend Bob Marley... Memories Always & Forever 🙏🇬🇧
I love d sound of Damian's voice 😍
I appreciate a reporter that does their homework and provides a balanced perspective
This young man has the wisdom of someone much older.
He doesn't think he's above his countrymen and you can tell he has a real connection with those living the struggle and recognizes the fact he's just a generation removed and if not for music he probably wouldn't exist.
Rappers from the hood in the United States would do well to listen to him.
I really like the interviewing style. Thanks and respect!!
Great interview. So many questions answered in a short time.
Well, I love this "I'm only one generation, I'm counting my blessings, if it wasn't for music, I might not exist. Who knows?" Love his voice and he certainly sounds like his father, "We come from rough places and so we care." That's it. Love and respect to him. Keep signing.
I love Damian's honesty & sound overstanding of who he is & where his from.u cant push around a man with such awareness!
Love ❤️ his music 🎶 it's 🔥👍🏼👅 love all the Marley's music listened to bob from the age of 10 years old & still listen to him every day ! His music is life !!!!
Great questions and responses! Very insightful interview.
My fav song will always be welcome to Jam rock
Medication good too
"to win election dem trick me then dem don't do nothing at all"
try " it is written "
welcome to jamrock is speaking about all the violence and deprivation in Jamaica. I hope you know that...
My favorite is "Speak Life".
It shows Alot more character and integrity in someone than most when they do come from a privileged background but they have a passion for exposing the inequalities and struggles the lesser have to battle on a daily basis...all of BM children seem to have that humility and strength of character...the world was Blessed when that Family was formed,I actually met Ziggy and Rohan at a UM game many years ago..so friendly and humble they were:)
Damian is gonna go so far💙💜❤️still love his tracts all unique and great.
Rita took care of them all and very strong black woman, and l am happy family's togetherness God bless
If u listen to his music, U can tell his bloodline is Legendary.
"Patience" feat Nas says so much
Amazing clever brilliant man Bob would be proud
He reminds me so much of his father , his voice is almost identical
Bless your beautiful heart and soul Damian💜🙏✌️
When me see Damian live in person, I was so mesmerised- top performer
Met Him Recently in NewYork For His Album Release ,Great Energy & Spirit #Rastafari
Rah ranks Cool, lucky you ❤️💛💚. 🌺🌼🍀
Respect
What was Junior Gong like personality wise when you met him ?
JNR GONG MY BEST DANCEHALL ARTIST #DISTANT RELATIVES
"Rita and other wives". Please note that Rita is the only wife.
I love to hear him talk love his music and his family
Blessed Honour and Respect Gongzilla
If you know your history, then you know we're your coming from, buffalo soldier....
Oy oy oy...
I love all the Marley.... RIP The Grand Legend: Bob Marley
Has a complete DNA of his fathers speech. The voice is such a Bob like.
awesome interview, you don’t need to be from the slums to know what it is, and that’s it’s not right, and most times, real means understanding the circumstances and acknowledging it for what it is. besides that, jamaicans are a different in the sense that no matter where you grow up, you basically end up in the involved or around specific circumstances, most times in my time frame, it’s doesn’t matter where your from, people never really judge you on that, so you might have people of all different walks of life chilling. great questions. this was a good episode.
A very articulate and rational young man !
Wow love this man
Great and truthful answer @ 8:21
Not everything in life is based on going through it somethings are just left to be seen
Damian you’re my Favourite Marley, because I can relate to you and the things you’re saying 👍
His Mom openly dated a married man. She is the boldest side chick in Jamaican history but because she is "upper class" she gets a pass FACTS
skenggg true talk, real talk.
skenggg I agree. The average Jamaican wife would throw hot lye on her face.

Your mother did. That's how you were conceived.
Love Is blind
Damian Marley is a gift to all of the people that love Bob Marley , very talented artist, my respect to all the beautiful mothers that were intelligent harmonious conscience women that carried beautiful children To life. Thank you Bob Nesta Marley for so much love.
*Welcome to Jamrock* will forever be my favourite song.
I would love to sit down and smoke with this man and just talk about life.
I was in a hotel in The Strand London where Bob Marley was staying June 1976, Rastaman Vibration tour. Damion's Mother Cindy Breakspeare had just been crowned Miss World . The next day she was brought to the hotel to meet Bob . I was there in the Foyer and Witnessed this. Cindy was So Beautiful. ❤ . R.I.P. Legend . ❤ 🙏
You don’t have to struggle to understand the struggle you do have to be a thug to be street if u can relate you have empathy and and understanding of humanity you can connect # I respect this man’s wisdom and his nobility is priceless
Some people have to struggle to understand struggle. Not everyone is artical.
Respect to all of Bob's Family.. Much love from The US of A .. Planning my trip as I watch these videos. So many great memories in Jamica, from driving around the island and Red Stripe beer...
Ya Jamaica is nice. Be careful
legend. so much talent in 1 family. bless ✌
Close your eyes and listen you can hear Bob and his voice and his words one love jah
Legends absolute legends jr gong Steven Julian ziggy nuff love and respect my brothers love your music culture👌
Ky mani
Vlad you should really do another interview with Kool G Rap on his reaction to Prodigy's death and his impact on Hip-Hop overall.
I know and love some of his music but I've not listened to an interview before. All of these questions and answers are very interesting to hear.
What genuine SoulSeeker ♥️!!!
Still searching & it was writen is fire
Agreed! It Was Written is one of my favorites...I also love Jah Army and Welcome to Jamrock.
Agreed!
Dwight Schrute ..Damn Dwight.... didn't know you listen Reggae.....Well I keep watching re- runs of the office daily on Netflix....,You n Michael cracks me up every time.... you're so crazy....
Uplifting interview!!!💥🙏🎶🇯🇲🎵🎸
Wonderful interview
Respect he forged his own way and style .......
My son wants to send my husband and me to Jamaica that’s been my dream forever

Hope it came true
I've been to Jamaican over 20 times in 20 years and it never gets old. Now you can travel around the whole country via the Knutsford Express Busline. A wonderful air conditioning experience 👌 My favorite four places are MoBay, Ochie, Negril and Kingston.
One love to ma bradda
Blessing dads love every time
Damian is beautiful mix of his mother and father. He's gorgeous😍😍😍😍
Big up Damian!
Never clicked a video so fast.
Bekah Hunter MAAAAAAAAN!!!!!! CANNOT WAIT TO SEE HIM NEXT WEEK!!!!!!
kdub8305 Yoooooo. My broke, white ass is stuck in Scotland. I hope you have an amazing time!!! ❤💛💚
So grounded simple - Non Marley has an amazing legacy all of them are so humble and discreet they know the crazy game they stay away from it. ❤
Uptown or Downtown, he has a Stillness because he knows his History, his Country and his Foundation!🎶💚
