There's no doubt he is a talented musician. Internationally they are beloved, but within Jamaica the Marley sons are very controversial. Many accuse them of becoming ruthless capitalists, abandoning Rastafari values for the corporate side of things, putting the Marley name on everything from rolling papers to soft drinks.
Also, there was and still is a big spat between the Marley boys and Eek-A-Mouse, with Eek accusing the Marley boys of not paying him for his contribution to a track that became a hit for the Marleys. Here is a clip I found on YouTube of Eek-A-Mouse telling his side of the story. I think the biggest problem he has is with Junior Gong.
Oh damn! I have to be honest I am clueless when it comes to personal life. I do have to say I am very appalled on what the Marley estate has done with Bobs name. So I can see exactly what your saying.
Damn they did not pay eek a mouse! What dirt bags. Iโm going to have to read up on this. Thanks for the enlightenment!

No problem. The truth usually lies in the middle, and I wasn't there. Just relaying some things I've seen floating around.
