About the Artist

At seven years old, he was part of the group The Melody Makers with his brothers and sisters, all of whom are the offspring of reggae legend Bob Marley. He became the band's lead singer when he was just eight-years-old, performing the song Sugar Pie at the 1982 Jamaica World Music Festival. The Melody Makers garnered a fair amount of success, putting the young singer on the path to stardom.

Breakthrough

Clearly, being the son of legendary reggae artists Bob and Rita Marley made the path to success in the music industry easier for Stephen Marley than it would be for many other artists who do not come from such musical pedigree. However, it is also precisely coming from such a musical family that made it the obvious choice for Stephen to join the family business. Fortunately for his fans, Stephen Marley did not rush to make his first solo records, he spent years recording with and working as a producer for his older brother Ziggy Marley as a member of his backing band the Melody Makers. It was not until Stephen Marley was 35 that he finally released his debut album Mind Control. He did not win his first Grammy Award as a solo artist until 2012 when he won the award for Best Reggae Album for his 2011 release Revelation Pt. 1: The Root of Life.
