Sept. 9, 2019 | Felix Contreras -- There was a distinct feeling of history in the air when Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley took his place in our office with his band, and it wasn't just the legend behind his surname. For fifteen minutes, we were treated to the same socially relevant reggae that his father, legendary Jamaican reggae icon Bob Marley, made popular when he put the genre on the international music map.
With eyes shut, Marley dug deep into the healing power of music with songs from his 2017 album Stony Hill. "So A Child May Follow" addresses the troubles youth confront around the globe and how to persevere to succeed. "Speak Life" sums up the message of his music and his turn behind the Tiny Desk: live a life that will enable us to survive life's slings and arrows with dignity and love. But what makes his music stand out on this session is the prominence of the acoustic guitar and piano in the arrangements, which makes the familiar sound somewhat new.
And let's address the elephant in the room: Damian's father cast a giant, magnificent shadow on the world and it can't be easy to follow in those footsteps as a songwriter and musician. "Jr. Gong" (after his father's nickname of "Tuff Gong") seems to be undaunted by that legacy and instead draws on it for inspiration and guidance. Not to mention there is more than a hint of his father's unmistakable singing voice that so often preached the same messages of self-identity and self-determination that his youngest son is now doing so successfully.

"Slave Mill"
"So a Child May Follow"
"Speak Life"

Reggae is truly healing. I'm young and hearing that second song "follow" felt like someone finally gave me my youth back and said it was okay to be young, because lately I've been caught in a race for sure.
This type of music is powerful enough to change chemistry and the world. Woke up feeling alone and isolated, found and listened to this with 3 encores and now I feel connected and content. Songs of extreme wisdom. Thank you, I owe you for this. Peace of mind to all. One...!

You never heard that Bob converted to Christianity before he was taken to the realm of the dead as all people are? kzread.info/dash/bejne/iYydss6lgsipcqw.html Also, you might be interested to know that God has said people are resting or being tormented in the realms below after they die. Nobody is near us or looking upon us except God in heaven and among us with his messengers and the fallen messengers who are condemned and awaiting judgement. “The righteous man perishes, and no one lays it to heart; devout men are taken away, while no one understands. For the righteous man is taken away from calamity; he enters into peace; they rest in their beds who walk in their uprightness.” Isaiah 57:1-2 ESV www.bible.com/59/isa.57.1-2.esv Ask Jesus of Nazareth to forgive your traspases and ask Him for mercy and grace, He is the son of God. Only If you do this can you know who God is. That’s what God says.

These 15 minutes are magic. I listen to this tiny concert at least once a day. It still feels like first time. I wish it would last an hour or even longer. Musical and lyrical outstanding. Thanks to Damian and his crew.

Bob lives on.
Right now, there are people all over the world who are just like you. They're either lonely, they're missing somebody, they're depressed, they're hurt, they're scarred from the past, they're having personal issues no one knows about, they have secrets you wouldn't believe. They wish, they dream and they hope. And right now, they are sitting here reading these words, and I'm writing this for you so you dont feel alone anymore. Always remember, don't be depressed about the past, don't worry about the future, and just focus on today. If today's not so great don't worry! Tomorrow's a new chance. If you are reading this, be sure to share this around to make others feel better. Have a nice day! :)

I met him when he came to the Dominican Republic, such a bright, truthful, honest soul with an extremely sharp mind! many blessings
I was lucky enough to live in Jamaica for 5 years and Damian came to my parish and performed and that memory will forever live in my heart and brain! Peace and Love to everyone who reads this!!!!!!!!
I have been listening to this several times a week since I discovered it. I saw Damian Marley years ago in LA and I’m excited to see him again at Red Rocks this summer!
I always love Damien’s acoustic performances and the 2 ladies backing him up have the most beautiful, melodic voices.

These tiny desk concerts are incredible because it exposes people to many different genres of music that they might not necescarily listen to otherwise. Ive never heard anything quite like this before but I instantly fell in love. Wonderful music!
