Ziggy Marley – Bob Marley’s Son

The Jamaican singer and pioneer of reggae Bob Marley sold more than 20 million records in his entire career. Marley is probably one of the most legendary music makers of all time. He was a legend and always will be. Rumors had it that back in the days when the music royalty was still alive that supermodels would go up to him just to have his children without any strings attached nor obligations at all. Now, that is interesting! Songs to his credit include One Love, Could You Be Loved, and No Woman No Cry. The latter song is often misinterpreted by being the song that is spreading the message to guys that if one doesn’t have a woman in his life, then the lesser his chances of crying are going to be.

What most people don’t know is that the song was actually written by the man himself for his sister. It was his advice after seeing her sister heartbroken, and he quickly told her, “Don’t do that woman, don’t you dare cry,” which in their language, later being shortened to “No woman! No cry!” It is known that he had 11 children, and here’s Ziggy Marley when he was young. Ziggy, now 51 years old, is the leader of his band Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers, a reggae family group whose members are all children of Bob Marley. After Bob passed away in 1981, Ziggy initiated to perform in several shows in Jamaica. Like his father, he is also a humanitarian.
