Over the past 45 years, Stephen has won no fewer than eight Grammy Awards—three with The Melody Makers, three times as a solo artist, and twice as a producer of his younger brother Damian Marley. Every one of his solo projects to date has topped the Billboard Reggae charts.
All of which is to say that Stephen Marley’s place in music history is already secure. He does not need to push the envelope, defy expectations, or let the whole world into his world. And yet, that is just what he’s decided to do. “We got some new music coming your way,” he says while performing his latest songs live. “Something for your soul. I think we need that.”
His first full-length project since 2016, Stephen’s highly anticipated fifth solo album, Old Soul, released on September 15, 2023 and comes as a complete revelation. With his well-earned reputation as a studio perfectionist, “Ragga” - as he’s known to friends and family - is a consummate live performer with a knack for spontaneity. Old Soul leans into those strengths and opens up the artist as never before.
