MUSIC RECOMMENDATION: Julian Marley - Don’t Ruin My World

 


Don’t Ruin My World by Julian Marley is a beautiful mellow reggae sound with a message. He clearly inherited the soft melodic tones of his legendary father Bob Marley. 


On December 13, 2022, the Music Video “Don't Ruin My World” by Reggae icon and humanitarian Julian Marley debuted at the UN’s launch of the “World Restoration Flagships Programs” 

Like his father, reggae pioneer Bob Marley, and several of his siblings before him, Julian Marley pursued the life of a musician, becoming a fixture in the reggae world as a singer, songwriter, producer, and collaborator. Proficient on a number of instruments from a young age, Julian worked with brothers StephenDamian, and Ky-Mani Marley as part of the Ghetto Youth Crew before releasing his own solo debut, Lion in the Morning, in 1996. Touring globally both with his backing band, the Uprising, and as part of various other Marley family-related projects, Julian's solo career reached a new level with 2009's critically acclaimed Awake, which earned a Grammy nomination. A devout Rastafarian, his songs promote themes of goodwill, spirituality, and social justice.
