Damian Robert Nesta Marley, also known around the world as “Junior Gong” and more recently as “Gongzilla” was born in 1978 to parents Bob Marley and Cindy Breakspeare, Miss World 1976.  As a young adult, he developed a passion and a gift to speak for those who cannot always speak for themselves. A self-proclaimed ‘Spiritual Revolutionary’, Damian has worked assiduously to carve his own niche in music history and to add a new perspective to the Marley legacy for the 21st century. 

At the age of 13, Damian began performing in a group called “The Shepherds” which comprised of Shiah Coore (son of Third World guitarist Cat Coore) and currently a member of his band, and Yashema Beth McGreggor, daughter of reggae singers Freddie Mcgreggor and Judy Mowatt and then began touring with his brothers, Stephen, Ky-mani, Julian and Ziggy. 

By 1996, Damian had already made his stamp as a different kind of Marley when he released his first solo album “Mr. Marley”, a heavily dancehall-influenced album produced by his brother Stephen Marley.  His second album “Halfway Tree” was released in 2001 by a major record label and showcased Damian’s unique gift for blending dancehall, reggae and hip-hop styles.  This album won Damian much recognition and remained on the Billboard Top Reggae Album Charts for 158 weeks and earned him his first Grammy for Best Reggae Album in 2002. 
While honored by this recognition by the global music fraternity, Damian continued to work in the studio, laying the groundwork for the tracks that would become his highly anticipated album, “Welcome To Jamrock”. The lyrics in this album presented Marley as a true spiritual revolutionary, as he used his talent to evoke a spiritual change while trying to enforce a better way of thinking.  He is described as “rhyming with the conviction of a street preacher with the intellect of a university economist”.  

Damian’s hit single “Welcome to Jamrock” was listed as one of the Top 100 Songs of the Decade by Rolling Stone, and at the 2006 Grammy Awards, he won Best Reggae Album and Best Urban/Alternative Performance for Welcome to Jamrock. Damian is the only Jamaican reggae artist in history to win two Grammy Awards on the same night. He is also the only reggae artist to win in the Best Urban/Alternative Performance category at the Grammy Awards. The New York Times called Welcome to Jamrock the “best reggae song of the decade.” 
Welcome to Jamrock led the pathway to Damian’s critically acclaimed collaboration with Nas for 2010’s much lauded album “Distant Relatives” – a project which explored the relationships between reggae, hip-hop and Africa. The album title refers not only to the bond between the artists, but the connection to their African ancestry, which inspired the album both musically and lyrically. USA Today referred to the album as a “potent and often provocative collaboration” and by Rolling Stone as “an Afrocentric winner.” The album debuted at Number 5 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart and Number 1 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, Rap Albums and Reggae Albums charts, with Billboard heralding the album as “a dynamic hybrid.”    

The Distant Relatives Tour kicked off in 2011 and saw Damian traveling and performing for thousands of fans all over the world, including South America, Europe, The United Kingdom, The Caribbean and North America.  

Damian continued to cross musical boundaries in 2012, as he went on to partner with Skrillex for their groundbreaking track “Make It Bun Dem”, which Rolling Stone called “a monster mash up of dubstep and dancehall” and has led to several remixes of the original version.  Damian recently released two other singles; “Set Up Shop” and  “Affairs of the Heart” which both received widespread airplay. 

Damian continues to tour with his band all over the world as a way of entertaining and healing as he continues to spread the message for those whose voices cannot be heard. He is working with his brothers Stephen and Julian under their Ghetto Youths International Label, to discover, develop and sign gifted artistes by applying their musical talent and vast experience to create new and different styles of music.  

Damian is currently in the studio working on his upcoming solo album.

RPG is a rapper, songwriter, and producer known for his playful style of conscious rap that raises social awareness and imparts wisdom.

Before he spat bars that grab your attention, he used to whisper quietly as Chang Huo-Ning in the liner notes of albums, by singers such as award-winning superdiva A-Mei Chang (張惠妹), where he plays the wordsmith. 

Fast-forward to 2017, a new character is born begins as he joins hip-hop label RoboKatZ, sidelining with artists such as Trout Fresh, NEOSO, and producer Felipe.Z. With the assist from like-minded talents, RPG was able to incorporate R&B, jazz, and fresh elements into his first studio album FHXY (風花雪月) in 2020.

While RPG’s powers centered on underground cyphers, old school boom-baps, and lyrical contemplations, the rapper has also expanded his glow on the radar with behind-the-scene works in music videos, advertising, and even podcasting. 

Hip Hop Community Center (HHCC 喇街頭) is RPG’s another effort in podcast format that extends a hip-hop narrative through conversations and dialogues, where he has cohosted with RĒD° since 2020. The two has also collaborated on single “So In Love With You” that flips an iconic sample from iconic ‘80s pop vocalist Michelle Pan (潘越雲).  

RPG unconsciously put himself through a game of role-playing that’s brought him across almost every stage of the Taiwan hip-hop scene. While his lyrics, mentality, and down-to-earth personality makes his character solid, he constantly hones, enhances, and refines his storytelling technique until the outcome is VVS studded.


來自台南的饒舌歌手「RPG」，以犀利的本格派饒舌在華語嘻哈圈內闖出名號，藝名是源自高中時期，在課堂上表演饒舌歌曲時被老師聽見，老師無心的一句「Wow, we got a rap guy here!」當時的他即以「MC Rapguy」為藝名開始發表創作，後來發現「Rapguy」太多人不會唸，於是有了重新設定藝名的想法，所以決定把藝名簡化成「RaPGuy」的縮寫「RPG」，同時也象徵攻擊力強大的「肩射式火箭彈」（RPG, Rocket-Propelled Grenade）以及代表多重角色設定的「角色扮演遊戲」（RPG, Role Play Game），最後以縮寫「RPG」作為正式藝名。

RPG的嘻哈音樂路上也不負「角色扮演遊戲」的設定，可謂真正的全能創作多面手，從老學校（old school）到新學校（new school），從boom bap到trap，從乘載知識與資訊的意識派饒舌（conscious rap）到描繪感情的嘻哈情歌，從本格派的饒舌唱法到加入旋律的饒唱風格都能駕馭，細膩的歌詞往往能夠在字裡行間建構場景，讓聽眾更容易進入他刻畫的故事裡。

也因為這樣的創作特質，RPG除了曾參與創作並演出多首破百萬點擊的饒舌作品受華語嘻哈圈的歌迷喜愛，幕後更以歌詞作者身份與張惠妹、戴愛玲、朱俐靜、 Kimberley 陳芳語、邱鋒澤...等歌手合作，是一位橫跨主流樂壇及嘻哈音樂的雙刀流創作職人。

加入獨立音樂廠牌 ROBOKATZ後 ，RPG陸續推出多首單曲，包括與茄子蛋合作的《浪子的路》、與NEOSO戴岑樺合作的《黑人問號.jpg》、「龍虎門」港台企劃《隻手遮天》以及與Julia Wu 吳卓源合作的《台北夜空下 Remix》、全網突破千萬流量的專輯《風花雪月》、EP《 P.L.U.R.》等作品，逐漸受到更多關注。
