source:essence.com

Excerpt: Marley took a moment from his tour to chat with ESSENCE.com about Father’s Day, what he remembers most about his famous dad, and the most important thing he learned from him.

Excerpt: ESSENCE.com: How will you and your family celebrate Father’s Day this year?
MARLEY: Every day of our lives, our Father is with us. Every day our Father is here with us spiritually anyway. I remember him every day, you know.

Excerpt: ESSENCE.com: What’s your favorite song or album by your father?
MARLEY: It’s hard to say a favorite song of my father’s. I listen to all his stuff; a lot of the old stuff before the 70s. The album I used most was Survival during my high school years. That album brought me into the consciousness of Africa, the struggle of Black people.

Title: Marley dominates Billboard reggae chart

source:jamaica observer

Excerpt: Marley continues to dominate Billboard's reggae albums chart. The king of reggae Bob Marley and his offspring — Ziggy, Stephen and Damian -- account for four of the top 10 slots on this week's ranking.

Excerpt: The Marley name also appears at the number three slot on the chart with Stephen Marley's Revelation Part 1: The Root of Life, which has spent 17 weeks on this chart and advanced one position from its number four spot last week. This week's number four is another Marley, as Ziggy's album Wild and Free takes that spot, having been on this chart for the past 14 weeks. The Marley brand is rounded out at No 9. The original Marley, Bob, continues to chart 30 years after his death with Live Forever taken from a show at the Stanley Theatre in Pittsburgh, USA, on September 23, 1980, mere months prior to the death of the reggae icon. This album has spent 34 weeks on the Billboard reggae album chart.
