Birth name

Latest comment: 11 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Info box on the side says his birth name was "Damian", with an 'a'. The 'Personal life and beliefs' section makes a point of saying that his birth name was "Damien", with an 'e'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.147.103.199 (talk) 14:59, 12 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, the name-change passages don't make sense.

I have not found anywhere any proof that Damian Marley is recording a new album, can anyone back this up? --155.33.157.14 18:01, 8 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Damian Marley is not making an album named Gang War it was just a single that released. As of 2012 there is no new album just singles the newest one is Go Hard with Wayne Marshall. His newest music video is Can't Keep Me Down. It is Cypress Hill Feat. Damian Marley — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.249.176.77 (talk) 17:18, 31 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

'Welcome To Jamrock' is not the highest-placed reggae song on the UK chart ever - many reggae songs have been #1. It might've been the highest that time, possibly the highest of the year (although I doubt it given Sean Paul's stature), but definitely not of all time. --MartinUK 19:24, 27 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I remvoed the following anecdote:

Damian records and performs with his nick name, Junior Gong, which arose from his father's nickname of Tuff Gong. There was a special event being hosted at 56 Hope Road, Bob Marley's Kingston studio and base. Damian arrived to find himself outside the gates. One of the security people recognized him as Bob's son and said "yo, there is a Gong Junior, open the gates!" DJs often have a stage name other than their birth name, and to Damian, who didn't have a stage name of his own as yet, Junior Gong was a natural. He kept it.


The material on the 2004 tour is current; will it reamin significant as time passes?


Am I missing it? In the section on his personal life it mentions his name being changed from Damian at his father's request, but never mentions what it was changed to and why he still goes by Damian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.63.69.193 (talk) 07:31, 22 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Okay, please tell me who in Damian Marley's ancestory is Puerto Rican? Also, how do you know he has no children?

His mother's mother is Puerto Rican --Zahn 23:42, 2 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Damian Marley mother is Jamaican Canadian. Her father was Jamaican and her mother was Canadian. They moved back to Jamaica when she was 4. It says it on her page. So Damian Marley is NOT Puerto Rican — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.249.176.77 (talk) 17:06, 31 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

DJ/deejay

edit

In the first paragraph it says Damian's musical specialty is "DJing" This is supposed to be "DeeJaying" And also when you click it, it goes to the hip-hop DJ article, rather than the article on DeeJaying"

Useless tour information / Reggae-hop section needed

edit
Latest comment: 13 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

That whole section that lists where he has toured is not important. You don't see this on any big artist page.

I think the most important secooin that needs to be created is one on his style of music often called 'reggae-hop.' —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.233.161.114 (talk) 11:00, 3 January 2007 (UTC).Reply

This entire article is in need of major cleanup, and that list will be a good start.--Chimino (talk) 10:03, 2 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

It was Ky-mani Marley that toured with Van Halen, not Damian. --Unsigned-- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.51.155.122 (talk) 21:50, 24 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Youngest son of Bob Marley?

edit
Latest comment: 15 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

"... is the youngest son of reggae legend Bob Marley."

According to the Bob Marley article he is the second youngest. What is the truth? --Holscher (talk) 17:13, 3 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Makeda Marley is a woman, making him the youngest son. Jack (talk) 23:45, 3 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
He;s the youngest son of Bob, so I removed the "second" from the line. If you want proof, listen to his music, specifically "Me Name Junior Gong" ('youngest veteran' and 'first one for me muma but me pupa last son" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.130.214.190 (talk) 16:56, 6 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Skillrex is not an "associated act"

edit
Latest comment: 12 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

One collaboration tune does not make for "associated acts". Superheavy is listed as Damian Marley is a member of the group, Nas & DM made a collaboration album and toured together, and the Marley children are obviously musical siblings. Skillrex and Damian Marley made one song together, and it is certainly not the first tune collaboration of Marley's career. I seem to be reverting this "association" in the DM infobox on a daily basis...--Chimino (talk) 21:47, 19 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in Damian Marley

edit
Latest comment: 10 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Damian Marley's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 21:15, 1 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Welcome to Jamrock and Grammy wins

edit
Latest comment: 10 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

There is some confusion in the article over the album "Welcome to Jamrock" and its subsequent Grammy wins. I'm just starting to follow Damian Marley, so I'm hardly an expert, but the article states that the album was released in 2005, but that Marley won two Grammys for it in 2009. This seemed unlikely, so I looked it up and, sure enough, his Grammy wins were in 2006. I don't know enough about the rest of the articles claims, however, to simply change all references to the ceremonies from 2009 to 2006 (when did he announce the collaboraqtion with Nas?). In addition, the heading for the album is annotated with the dates (2005-2007), although it released in September of 2005. Could someone with more knowledge on this subject make the appropriate corrections? Thanks.Sheriffjt (talk) 15:38, 5 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
