He is the son of singer Bob Marley and table tennis champion Anita Belnavis, and the half-brother of Ziggy Marley. Marley's first appearance as musician took place in 1996 when he recorded Like Father Like Son, an album consisting of cover versions of some of his father's songs. His next album, 1999's "The Journey", received mass critical acclaim, and achieved relatively good sales. His 2001 album, "Many More Roads", was nominated for a Grammy for best reggae album. He lost to his brother Damian's album, "Halfway Tree".

In 2002 he played lead role (Biggs) in the film Shottas along with Spragga Benz, Paul Campbell, Louie Rankin, Wyclef Jean, Screechie Bop and many more. It is an original story that shows the life of a shotta/gangster on the streets of Jamaica and Miami.

He achieved even more success as a musician with a cover of Eddy Grant's Electric Avenue, in collaboration with the Fugees' Pras. He has also starred in several films, including Shottas in 2002 and as John the Baptist in the 2004 film Haven.

Remaining true to his Jamaican culture, Ky-mani'’s fondness for all genres of music influences the work he creates. Ky-mani is an artist with no limits. Incorporating world music, hip hop, blues, rock and a grass roots sound into his music, the end product is the pure representation of life for Ky-mani. The Ky-mani Marley sound is one that transcends cultural lines and prohibits him from being categorized as only a reggae artist. His raw, unadulterated, gruff sound captures the listener and reverberates the essence of Ky-mani’'s life story.

Ky-mani launched his latest album "Radio" in 2007. The album features several key singles including One Time, The March and Conversation among others. All of the songs contain Marley’s unique sound of classical reggae beats mixed with contemporary hip hop. Also featured on the CD are some of today’s hottest artists including Young Buck, Mya and Gail Gotti.

Warriors
by Ky-Mani Marley

[Chorus]
One time for my warriors,my last smugglers and all my buffalo soldiers
One time for my warriors,my heat carriers and all my buffalo, yo
One time for my warriors,my last smugglers and all my buffalo soldiers
One time for my warriors,my heat carriers and all my buffalo, hey

Say fool you must be crazy
What is it you tryin' to do you cannot faze me
I've been smokin' on a pound and feelin' hazy
For five-o I won't stop they gotta chase me
Now make it mo' better for the cream
My music brings the cheddar, see what I mean
The seats in the ride is leather,the rims are clean
I change like the weather, now I'm the king, yeah yeah

[Chorus]

Now if you want to find me, I'll be in Jamaica smoked out
In a black navigator,evading all the playa haters - high
Here comes the rover with the troops
Decked out in army fatigues,
And stompin' 'um with my black tin boots,say what
Now while you remixing punch lines, I create
How you want to battle me, hah
When you just a feather weight, hey yo
You know how long I've been knocking out heavyweights, its best you chill
Meditate find your space and know your place because
I'm like a disciple,when I appear from the clouds
I gets on stage I get the mic and then I bless the crowd, blow
Me and my soldiers we gon' ride tonight
Get some of the, we gon' get high
Babylon ridin' slowly,ah try fe hold me
Want to prosecute I for my Ganja
Babylon ridin' slowly,ah try fe hold me
Like they don't know,eh,what I'm tellin' ya

[Chorus]

It's me a runnin' down in J-A
Twenty thousand pounds of Ses on the ship headin' straight for the bay, yo
Well I'm a check the rice around the weed
And all vibes have got me jealous and I meditate, hey
Now probably I hit the airways
I'm burnin' live 'till I'm back in the M-I-A, yeah
I say my soldiers from around the way
I call up shortly for the party we be doin' this everyday

[Chorus: x4]

Eh la la la, yeah
