Now, for the very first time, the eldest Marley will release a self-titled album, his sixth solo studio album, Ziggy Marley, on May 20, 2016 through Tuff Gong Worldwide, Ziggy Marley’s own record label.
The self-titled solo album was recorded at the infamous Village Studios in Los Angeles and produced by Ziggy, the new self-titled album marks his first release in 2 years, following 2014’s critically acclaimed Fly Rasta, which took home the 2015 Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album.
Ziggy Marley explains, “This record is a record from my heart, about the world we live in today. There is a message in there for the world. Every song carries its own ideas. We have tried everything; wars, revolution, everything. The world as a whole, has tried many things to solve the problems. Why not try to be loving.”
Ziggy Marley’s self-titled album is available for pre-order through his own website and iTunes music store.
