Bob Marleys son admits to smoking everyday!

[activedenial]

HAHA!! You gotta love the guys honesty to the press. Right on it's not like anybody didn't know anyway.:rasta: If everybody admitted to smoking the numbers would be a lot higher!!
----------
Damian Marley admits he has inherited his famous father's love of smoking marijuana - because he cannot relax without it.

The reggae star and son of the legendary Bob Marley has smoked the drug daily since he was very young, claiming it helps him get in touch with his spiritual side.

He says, "I smoke every day just about.

"I can't remember what age I was when I had my very first spliff, but I enjoy herb.

"It gives meditation and helps you relax. But I wouldn't say it's something people have to do.

"It's a spiritual thing, but it's not a must with my faith either."

"Even a Rastaman doesn't have to smoke herb."

Bob marley's son is a little girl. he's a disgrace to my generation, and he needs to get his own image. like.....did he think he could ever be half as good as his pops?

[trojansrule]

Damian Marley kicks ass! He always plays up in my hometown Santa Cruz. After you see him in person, it would be impossible to not call him a stoner.

He has his own image, just happens that it's a lot like his fathers, his music is very different to his fathers.
And they both follow(ed) the same religion which tells them they cant cut/brush there hair so what did you expect?

Dude, i live in santa cruz, when will he play next?

[trojansrule]

Not sure about that, I'm in LA going to school. Trust me, I would love to be up in SC.

[ozkid]

ah i smoke almost everyday and im 14, haha beat that marley!

[welshkillabee]

His album Halfway tree is the shit! and pick up Jamrock too :rasta:
He's a great musician.

[D.Boone]

well that doenst really suprise me at all since he sings about smokin in almost all his songs and he is a rastafarian his whole family is they all smoke weed. damien was interviewed by high times and they asked him if his brothers smoked as much as he does and he said "ya we all use it as a sacrament but ziggy doesnt smoke as heavily as the rest of us" lol who woulda known i thought theyd all be st8 up potheads.

[Reefer Rogue]

Good shit.

[kongo]

On m the way to see Jnr Gong tonite.Never heard any of his stuff but I got the tickets as a present and I got some Hawian Haze and Kandi bubble for the gig so better get going!

Peace and love!

[beachguy in thongs]

I betcha Johann Marley, electrifying ex-linebacker for U. of Miami, is puffing away, as we speak. Or type. Or read. Or spell. Or count. Or puff.

I feel that, all his children are just trying to be just like their daddy, it's pretty clear that damian nor ziggy takes shit they say to heart. Now Bob Marley, he was a great man. an inspiration. but his kids? please.

[orangeman]

Of course, they are Rastafari's and believe in it. Psalms 104:14 says "He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man." :D.

[kongo]

The gig was brillant.The first in Dublin of his European tour.I can see now why he got those two grammys.His own style yet you could feelm a certain presence when he spoke.I dont normally go for that sort of JA music more of a bob or congos fan,but I have to say I was impressed.Good night!

[UnViaje]

Thats on point there homes, smoking bud is part of Rastafarian religion in the first place, no doubt that dude n his fam are potheads, nothing new. As far as musically, Damian brings the lyrics on a ride with vibe he lays out rhythmically, especially the rap/rasta aspect he puts into it, nothing near to be seen has biting his pop's style. Muthafukkn Wyclef Jean has done tracks that sound like he's trying to be tuff gong, Damian gots his own flow, killa artist.

i dont think so. they all have their own style ziggy is more laid back old school reggae. damien is more influenced by the newer dancehall sound and hip-hop. stephen marley has an international music group that searches the globe for young up and comin musicians called the ghetto youths. they all do their own thing. i dont think they are just tryng to be like their dad that would be dumb but you can tell that they have great respect for him and everything he stood for so they try to continue to spread his word in their own ways.

[RastaKaze]

lmao ziggy is oldschool layed back reggae?????

*sigh* if only you people knew what real reggae is

go listen to some peter tosh and then tell me whats oldschool

[Harvesthetic]

Everyone experiences music differently. That's the beauty of it. Is Muddy Waters going to tell us how to interpret his blues? I don't think so... ;)
D. Boone thinks its laid-back, so it's laid-back for him. :) His truth. IMO he is laid back too, but a bit more poppy than daddy. And like RK said, not the real stuff, but that's for all to see, Ziggy even admits that :) Standup guy.
But he's real cool, he doesn't feel a lot of pressure to live up to his dad, which is damn near impossible, right? Damien might feel that pressure a bit more, but chose a slight variation of reggae to put his mark on.
And he did!

Anyway, the fact that Ziggy Marley admits to smoking weed is a bit.. well... obvious no? :)
I'm sure that when Russel Crowe's kid turns thirty he'll admit to drinking like a drainpipe too :D

[RastaKaze]

yea but you see that's the just reason why i hate his kids

its like, why even admit that. they're only receiving publicity because

1. theyre bob's kids

2. they go around saying shit about weed. and we know how controversial that, is, gosh :rolleyes:

my point is, bob marley was REAL. ackk. whatever, im not going to argue. listen to what u like, no disrespect:thumbsup:

[eddievanzant]

Yeah. Dying of toe cancer because your religion is against doctors is pretty real. I don't think his kids'd do that.
