Soul-Rebel Marley Honors His Grandfather’s Legacy with “Loving Jah”
Emerging reggae artist Soul-Rebel Marley continues his family’s musical legacy with the release of his debut single, “Loving Jah,” out today on all digital platforms. The track is released under his own Tek Time Productions in partnership with the legendary Tuff Gong International label, founded by his grandfather, Bob Marley.
Inspired by Bob Marley’s 1980 classic “Forever Loving Jah,” Soul-Rebel’s modern take fuses reggae with elements of dancehall and hip-hop. The song was born in the studio during a session with his Grammy-winning brother Skip Marley, with its opening line—“Hail up the King of Kings / We forever loving Jah”—first recorded as a voice note. The final production features ethereal vocal layers, including contributions from his Grammy-winning mother, Cedella Marley.
