"I know all about you"


My favourite singer is Bob Marley. That's what I've learnt about him.

  • Some interesting facts from his childhood.

Bob Marley was born in the village of Nine Mile, in Saint Ann Parish, Jamaica, as Nesta Robert Marley. His father, Norval Sinclair Marley, was a White English-Jamaican, whose family came from Sussex, England. Norval claimed to have been a captain in the Royal Marines. He was a plantation overseer, when he married Cedella Booker, an Afro-Jamaican then 18 years old. Norval provided financial support for his wife and child, but seldom saw them, as he was often away on trips. In 1955, when Bob Marley was 10 years old, his father died of a heart attack at age 70.
  After several years of living in Nine Miles, 14-year-olds, Bob went in search of happiness in Kingston, capital of Jamaica. Robert became a pupil of local singer Joe Higgs and at the same time he met and became close friends with Neville O'Riley Livingston nicknamed Bunny.

  • What is his favourite style or clothes?
His favourite style was free clothing style.  Bob Marley became famous all over the world by his cap. 
  • Does he have a pet?
No, he doesn't have a pet, because he is dead...
  • What music does he like?

  • Is he single/married?

Yes, he was married. His wife's name was Rita. Bob Marley had a number of children: three with his wife Rita, two adopted from Rita's previous relationships, and several others with different women. The Bob Marley official website acknowledges eleven children.
