Ziggy Marley’s kids aren’t copying grandpa Bob-they’re remixing the family brand. From reggae-rooted singles to Berlin electro-pop and Parsons photo projects, each child is carving a distinct creative path.
The Creative Crew
Bambaata, 36, dropped “Eclipse” in January 2024 and appeared on Ziggy’s 2011 album Wild and Free. Justice, 34, owns the streetwear label More Justice; she told Vogue Bob is her “underrated style icon.” Zuri, 30, makes electro-pop and told Paper her only nod to legacy is the message of “freedom.”
Parsons student Judah, 20, published photos in Idiosyncrasy and inspired the 2009 kids’ album Family Time. Gideon, 19, sang on the 2020 lockdown record More Family Time. Abraham, 14, and Isaiah, 9, already appear on Dad’s tracks; Isaiah’s baby babble became a song starter.
Family Rules
Ziggy and wife Orly blend Jamaican spirituality with Middle Eastern family-first values. During COVID-19, the crew recorded children’s books and two kids’ albums. In 2019 they fronted an UGG campaign that donated $50 k to charity-passing down giving by “living it, not just telling it.”
Key Takeaways
- Seven Marley offspring span four moms, three cities, and zero creative duplicates
- Three already appear on Billboard-charted family albums
- Next-gen Marleys choose fashion, photography, and electro over straight reggae
- Ziggy: “Children see the living and it gets passed down through the living”
The Marley name still opens doors, but the grandkids decide which rooms to enter.
