"Children are wonderful. It don’t take plenty y’know. Just a nice girl who don’t take birth control. Sexual intercourse is a lovely thing”
Bob Marley

Many successfull musicians are known to live their life in blue and Bob is one of them with 13 children from 7 different mothers before dying in 1981 at age 36. As the man said, he loves children and woman so who are we to judge.

Like any large family, his children had many different aspect of pursuits in their adult life. Some of them followed their fathers footstep and made great works. I posted some songs by the sons of Marley in a previous post of mine you can find it here.

Here are the famous and infamous children of Bob from 7 different partners:

Damian Marley

Damian is another great musician who followed in his fathers footsteps. He teamed up with Nas and made one of my favorite songs patience

Imani Carole Marley

Imani is Bob's first born child but for some reason she is not acknowledged in the official Bob Marley website.

Sharon Marley

Sharon was born to Bob's first wife Rita 2 years prior to their marriage. Bob adopted her and acknowledged as his own.

Cedella Marley

Cedella along with some of her siblings was part of a group Ziggy Marley and melody makers.

David ''Ziggy'' Marley

He is the oldest son of Bob and lead in the band Ziggy Marley and the melody makers.

Stephen Marley

Stephen was also in Ziggy's band and he also had pursuit of his own music career where he made killer songs in my opinion.

Robert ''Robbie'' Marley

He didn't follow in his fathers footsteps, instead he became a motorcycle stuntman.

He is a troublemaker, and played as a linebacker at ''The U''. Later he opened a organic coffeeshop called Marley Coffee.

Karen Marley

Karen grew up Jamaica and lived there.

Stephanie Marley

Another adopted daughter of Bob.

Julian Marley

Another son who followed in his fathers footsteps and he is a killer musician.

Ky-mani Marley

He is table tennis champion. He is more interested in sports than to music but that changed later when he got in to rap music.
