hey just say this on the news, do you think Damian Marley is selling his dads name out and making him into a brand or is it already at that point?
what do you think of the gear, i think it looks pretty sick and made with sustainable materials which is sweet.

Something makes me think Damien Marley doesn't really need the money, but I could be wrong. They look sick either way

I have used the redemtion song ear phones for a while, they hold up pretty well, cant vouch for the headphones, but the budds are great, bass is great, sound quality is awesome and fit is 2nd to none, they have done a great job, with them. awesome quality, i have been using them skiing, mtb, and just everyday and they are still in prime condition.
hope that helps mate.

I don't think Bob Marley's message was "put my face on a poster that goes on fraternity walls to indicate the deep, emotional bond young middle class white americans feel with smoking weed from a 450$ bong".

His message is long gone at this point, his son might as well capitalize on his dad's name some more

Probably one of the worst first posts I've seen in awhile. At least you corrected it..


To be honest I don't think it's a big deal. He got to where he is now by cashing in on being a Marley (not that he doesn't have talent as well). There are already all sorts of Bob Marley products, that a line of headphones isn't changing anything.


That name has been sold out for a very long time now.

ie. My junior year of highschool I used to wear these rasta colored Skullcandys to school occaisonally, and this girl whom I was slightly acquainted with once told me how much she liked my "Bob Marley color" headphones. Needless to say I lost it.

i bought some earbuds in the grocery store for less than 5 bucks that were made out of real wood and had the same sound quality that my friends 50 dollar earbuds had. so basically im never spending money on headphones again.

I don't get it he's not really selling it out, if you walk down the street you'll probally see bob's face! he is everywhere on everything. more people think its trendy to listen to him then wolf gang. there is also Bob Marley everything ive seen headphones shirts shoes, honestly Bob made reggae and the Rastafarian religion a trend, i don't understand why everyone is mad at Damian.
