Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley is a multi-Grammy winning Jamaican musical luminary, celebrated for his genre-defying tracks, profound lyrical themes, and philanthropic endeavors. His own collections, along with collaborations with iconic artists such as Mick Jagger, Bruno Mars, Jay Z, Nas, Mariah Carey, Gwen Stefani, Cypress Hill, and many others showcase Damian’s diverse musical influences. By blending reggae with dancehall, hip-hop, R&B, and rock, he has crafted a signature sound that resonates globally.
With an impressive Grammy collection that includes victories for “Halfway Tree,” “Welcome to Jamrock,” “Distant Relatives” (a collaborative masterpiece with Nas), and most recently as the producer for the album, The Kalling, by Kabaka Pyramid, Damian aims to continue to blaze a trail in producing hits. With millions of monthly Spotify listeners, “Jr. Gong” not only reigns as a chart-topping musical virtuoso, but also maintains his status as an influential reggae icon and a pivotal figure in the worldwide music arena.
Never one to limit his musical horizons, Stephen Marley has always listened without prejudice, letting his inspiration set him free as a singer, songwriter, musician, and producer—whether collaborating with his own illustrious musical family or with the likes of Lauryn Hill, Bobby Brown, Nas, or Erykah Badu. Beginning his lifelong musical journey at the age of six, Stephen shared some historic stages with his legendary father and toured the world with his brother Ziggy and sisters Cedella and Sharon, The Melody Makers. Over the past 45 years, Stephen has won eight Grammy Awards—three with The Melody Makers, three times as a solo artist, and twice as a producer of his younger brother Damian Marley. Every one of his solo projects to date has topped the Billboard Reggae charts.
The Traffic Jam Tour marks the first time Damian and Stephen jointly present a curated set, offering a unique showcase to their fans of both brothers’ catalogs and a medley of their father Bob Marley’s classics. The two have written and performed a multitude of singles together over the last two decades, including the most recent collaboration, “Cast The First Stone” from Stephen Marley’s new LP Old Soul. The brothers also wrote, produced, and performed on the anthemic Grammy-winning reggae classic “Welcome To Jamrock,” as well as timeless compositions like “Medication,” “Grown & Sexy,” “All Night,” “It Was Written,” and, of course, “Traffic Jam.”
Doors to the M Pool will open at 7 p.m. and the show will start at 8 p.m. on Friday, August 2. For more information on M Resort Spa Casino’s upcoming concerts, events, and special promotions, as well as to purchase tickets, please visit themresort.com.
