As the Matriarch of the Marley family, Nana Rita Marley, O.D., continues to manifest her commitment to the works of her husband Bob Marley and her children (the Grammy Award winning Ziggy Marley & the Melody Makers). Currently working on her new album, which features internationally acclaimed producers such as Stephen Marley of Ghetto Youths, Sly & Robbie of Taxi Production and Wyclef Jean—formerly of the Fugees, Rita Marley’s musical career has seen the production of four successful solo albums, Who feels It Knows It, Harambe, the 1992 Grammy nominated We Must Carry On, and Spectacle For Tribuffalos, as well as the classic reggae album Beginning, with the I-Threes. Her sizzling 1982 hit “One Draw” made music history as the first reggae single to top the Billboard Disco Charts. No Woman No Cry is her biography of her husband, Bob Marley and the story of a marriage that survived both poverty and later on the strains of celebrity.
