    Damian “Junior Gong” and Stephen Marley are coming to Las Vegas and will make an exciting stop at M Resort Spa Casino as part of their Traffic Jam Tour 2024 across North America. The brothers will take over the M Pool stage with their curated set of Reggae sounds on Friday, August 2, 2024. Tickets start at $30 plus taxes and fees and go on sale on Friday, June 14. They can be purchased by visiting themresort.com or ticketmaster.com.

    Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley is a multi-Grammy winning Jamaican musical luminary, celebrated for his genre-defying tracks, profound lyrical themes, and philanthropic endeavors. His own collections, along with collaborations with iconic artists such as Mick Jagger, Bruno Mars, Jay Z, Nas, Mariah Carey, Gwen Stefani, Cypress Hill, and many others showcase Damian’s diverse musical influences. By blending reggae with dancehall, hip-hop, R&B, and rock, he has crafted a signature sound that resonates globally.

    With an impressive Grammy collection that includes victories for “Halfway Tree,” “Welcome to Jamrock,” “Distant Relatives” (a collaborative masterpiece with Nas), and most recently as the producer for the album, The Kalling, by Kabaka Pyramid, Damian aims to continue to blaze a trail in producing hits. With millions of monthly Spotify listeners, “Jr. Gong” not only reigns as a chart-topping musical virtuoso, but also maintains his status as an influential reggae icon and a pivotal figure in the worldwide music arena.

    Never one to limit his musical horizons, Stephen Marley has always listened without prejudice, letting his inspiration set him free as a singer, songwriter, musician, and producer—whether collaborating with his own illustrious musical family or with the likes of Lauryn Hill, Bobby Brown, Nas, or Erykah Badu. Beginning his lifelong musical journey at the age of six, Stephen shared some historic stages with his legendary father and toured the world with his brother Ziggy and sisters Cedella and Sharon, The Melody Makers. Over the past 45 years, Stephen has won eight Grammy Awards—three with The Melody Makers, three times as a solo artist, and twice as a producer of his younger brother Damian Marley. Every one of his solo projects to date has topped the Billboard Reggae charts.

    The Traffic Jam Tour marks the first time Damian and Stephen jointly present a curated set, offering a unique showcase to their fans of both brothers’ catalogs and a medley of their father Bob Marley’s classics. The two have written and performed a multitude of singles together over the last two decades, including the most recent collaboration, “Cast The First Stone” from Stephen Marley’s new LP Old Soul. The brothers also wrote, produced, and performed on the anthemic Grammy-winning reggae classic “Welcome To Jamrock,” as well as timeless compositions like “Medication,” “Grown & Sexy,” “All Night,” “It Was Written,” and, of course, “Traffic Jam.”

    Doors to the M Pool will open at 7 p.m. and the show will start at 8 p.m. on Friday, August 2. For more information on M Resort Spa Casino’s upcoming concerts, events, and special promotions, as well as to purchase tickets, please visit themresort.com.

    Expanding his repertoire, Ice Cube ventured into acting and filmmaking, where he has produced the Friday, Ride Along, Barbershop, and Are We There Yet? franchises, and the critically acclaimed NWA biopic Straight Outta Compton. He is also an acclaimed film writer (Friday, The Players Club, The Janky Promoters) and director (The Players Club) who is best known for his acting. One of the most bankable actors in cinematic history, Ice Cube has also acted in the Friday, Barbershop, Are We There Yet? and Ride Along franchises, along with the 21 Jump Street franchise, and has had star turns as a conflicted teen in Boyz N The Hood, a greedy soldier in Three Kings and an elite government agent in XXX: State of the Union. His most recent acting part was playing Superfly in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. Beyond music and film, Ice Cube co-founded the BIG3 basketball league, showcasing his passion for sports, and is currently working on his 11th solo studio album titled Man Down, to be released on his label Lench Mob Records later this year.
