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.

Hailing from the cityscapes of Baltimore, Rap/Hip Hop recording artist, Waller Boi, began hitting the ground running with the music realm in 1994, and has no intention of slowing down his well-known knack for determination to take himself to the top.

With many years of practice, performances, and preparation under his belt, Waller has manifested into a renowned artist with a promising future ahead. His unique and versatile style stems from a vast array of influences like 50 Cent, R. Kelly, Master P, Big L, Tupac and Biggie, but sustains his own signature sound that is both fresh-faced and recognizable. 

Waller’s stylized take on the Rap & Hip Hop genre has a universal sound that’s for anyone, and doesn’t cater to a particular group or type of person. He by no means is afraid to step outside the box musically and put some versatility into his artistic merit; setting him apart from your average artist.

On a regular basis, you can find Waller listening to his iPod and writing verses. As being a staple in his community, the artist also gets to talk to younger generations about music. Waller has performed at a slew of showcases and live shows over many years, and is determined to become a household name. 

Waller Boi just dropped his newest single “I Do It (Right Back At It)”, with Beat Production by K.E. On The Track. He is currently working on his anticipated upcoming EP “Waller Moon” and follow-up mixtape “Turn Nothing Into Something”, both slated for release this year in 2018.

San Francisco rapper Furious Stylez was almost done with Hip-Hop before he even started. Hip-Hop had gone from “please listen to my demo” to “Ouch I got punched on the internet and now I’m a famous rapper” and he was in total disgust. Before this he had been using traditional methods of Hip-Hop producing local mix-tapes and hoping to catch a buzz in the Bay Area independent market working with legendary producers like JT The Bigga Figga, Cozmo and Tone Capone. He lucked up when his long time mentor and family friend Martin Luther McCoy replaced a original member of The Roots and Black Thought placed Stylez in a group with his long time protégé Makk Dubb “The Perfect Strangers”. Long story short it went nowhere and Stylez found himself in Houston during the Swisha House Movement assisting JT The Bigga Figga with a possible Rap-a-Lot West deal. Again the deal just didn’t work out and Stylez found himself back and the drawing board but this time he wasn’t alone. With funds depleted he roomed up with his cousins, Now Roc-Nation song writer J-Angel and MTV’s Making The Band 4 rising star Brian Angel of Day 26 but back then the were just Joseph and Brian. As time went on the three vowed to each other that if one of them makes it, they would reach back for the other and that’s exactly what Brian did. Though Stylez wasn’t getting paid for his talents he was paid to act as a road manger for the Bad Boy Group Day 26 and worked very close with manager Screwface. This is where his love for the game began to fade. The music industry just didn’t seem real anymore and he wanted out. He tried utilizing his celebrity contacts that he made in the business to promote night clubs but that shoe just didn’t fit. Dumbfounded Furious caught himself watching a video online of anonymous rapper and he thought “enough is enough, I know I can do this better”. Realizing the game was no longer “climb up the totem pole” Stylez reactivated he social media accounts recorded a couple tracks and hit the road passing out flyers for his upcoming EP which wasn’t even finished when he found himself in Denver taking a toke with OPM security “Hambone”, who took a liking to Stylez and Introduced him to fellow California natives Dom Kennedy, Skeme and tour manager Wayne Carter who without hesitation asked Furious to open for Skeme and Dom for the remainder of Dom Kennedy’s Get Home Safely in February 2014 . Gearing up for his November release Furious Stylez explains the quite fitting tittle to His forthcoming EP “Expect Delays”. “I finally got”, it says the 30 year old seasoned rookie. “I just realized that no matter what you do or how bad you want things to happen, Things only happen when god see’s fit. So you should just work hard at your craft and let god do the rest”.
