Joshua Omaru "YG" Marley, known more popularly as YG Marley, is an American singer and songwriter. He was born on December 5, 2001, in Beverly Hills, California. As the son of celebrated figures Lauryn Hill and Rohan Marley, and the grandson of reggae legend Bob Marley, YG Marley became involved in music at a very early age. In fact, he often accompanied his mother on stage during her performances. His career, however, was not confined to music alone; in 2017, he ventured into modeling with a campaign for Urban Outfitters and featured in Teen Vogue alongside his sister, Selah Marley. In 2023, YG Marley's decades-long interest in music finally coalesced into a solo career with the release of the single "Praise Jah in the Moonlight," which achieved viral success and marked his official entry into the music industry. The track not only topped the US and streaming charts but also paved the way for his international recognition, charting in the Top 10 in countries such as the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Norway, and Sweden. The song's success also made YG Marley the sixth member of the Marley family to have a song on the Billboard Hot 100.
