      The Marley surname embodies Jamaican royalty and symbolizes a cultural, political, and social revolution. Nearly thirty years after the death of reggae icon Bob Marley, music lovers and new generations of social activists continue to seek inspiration from his timeless catalog. While his life was tragically cut short, his legacy thrives through his extraordinary children. Ky-Mani Marley, born in 1976 in Falmouth, Jamaica, is the tenth son of Bob Marley. He discovered his musical talents later in life, becoming an international artist and film actor. Like his father, Ky-Mani has created songs of redemption and has a compelling personal story shaped by the harsh realities of urban life. In "Dear Dad," he recounts his early struggles, including being locked out of his father's shelter and navigating the dangers of Liberty City, one of Miami's most violent neighborhoods. Initially estranged from his siblings and cut off from the Marley Estate, Ky-Mani's journey from a troubled past to a Grammy-nominated artist is a gripping tale of resilience. Now a dedicated father and philanthropist, he performs over 100 shows a year and was honored as 'Philanthropist of the Year' by the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, marking a significant transformation in his life. His story is a true 'redemption song.'
