Bob Marley's Grandson Joseph 'Jo Mersa' Marley Dead at 31
Joseph "Jo Mersa" Marley, the grandson of reggae legend Bob Marley and son of Grammy Award-winning musician Stephen Marley, has died. He was 31.
His representative confirmed his death to Rolling Stone on Tuesday. Jo Mersa's death was first reported in a tweet by journalist Abka Fitz-Henley, and according to WZPP Radio, the musician was "found in his vehicle." His cause of death has not yet been revealed.
Representatives for Jo Mersa did not immediately return PEOPLE's request for comment. Born in Jamaica in 1991, Jo Mersa moved to Miami at the age of 11, according to Rolling Stone. He attended Palmetto High School before enrolling at Miami Dade College, where he studied studio engineering. Jo Mersa was exposed to music at an early age while being raised by his father Stephen, 50. He was one of Bob's 11 children who followed in the late reggae artist's footsteps.
After beginning to write music in middle school, Jo Mersa released his first song "My Girl" — a collaboration with his cousin Daniel Bambaata Marley — in 2010. In 2014, Jo Mersa dropped his first studio album, titled Comfortable. His latest and second EP, Eternal, was released last year.
While promoting the tracks, Jo Mersa opened up about his grandfather — who died in 1981 at the age of 36 — telling Reggaeville.com about his legacy and sharing that his family remembers the late singer by reminiscing about the memories they had with him.
"We always hear those reflections, speaking about those things, about the role that he played not only as a family member and father, but also in the world and the impact he had on the Reggae community and the Reggae culture, the roots, bringing forward the message of Rastafari and love, over all love," he explained at the time.
Mourning the death of Jo Mersa on Tuesday, Mark J. Golding, a Jamaican politician, penned a heartfelt note on Twitter. "I've just learned of the tragic loss of Joseph 'Jo Mersa' Marley. A talented young reggae artist, son of Stephen Marley & grandson of Bob Marley at only 31 years old," he wrote. "The loss of a child is a devastating blow no parent should face. My condolences to Stephen & the entire family."
Jamaican-American reggae musician Shaggy also posted a picture of Jo Mersa on his Instagram. "So saddened by the news of the passing of this young king @jomersamarley sending prayers and condolences to the Marley family," he wrote in the caption.
Jamaica's Prime Minister, Andrew Holness, also honored Jo Mersa following his death. Calling his death "a huge loss to music as we look to the next generation," Holness, 50, added: "My heartfelt sympathies to Joseph's friends and associates and to the reggae music fraternity and fans everywhere."
"May he find Eternal Peace as we mourn his loss during this season of goodwill when we celebrate with family and friends our love for each other," he wrote.
According to WZPP Radio, Jo Mersa is survived by his wife and daughter.

This Mystery/Thriller is 141 minutes, and is rated R
TV – The Conners
Has a primetime sitcom ever been drenched in so much sadness? This Roseanne spin-off, created to salvage fans’ feelings, iconic characters and the working professionals burnt in Roseanne Barr’s firing, will likely premiere with Roseanne dead, Dan (John Goodman) moping because she’s dead, and presumably more of the same working-class, Midwestern blues stuff as before. There will be an unexpected pregnancy, ABC says, which promises some drama, although nothing producers could ever write could possibly top what happened off-screen. However, I think we will all be watching to see how they killed off Roseanne!
Tues, October 16; 8pm; ABC
CONCERT – Lauryn Hill
The former Fugee celebrates the 20th anniversary of her breakthrough solo release, “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.” The 1998 album is now widely considered a hip-hop essential.

Episode 2: Being my Brother’s Keeper
If you want success for yourself you have to be willing to do the work. That was some of the advice shared from DJ Rampage Global during episode 2 of NY to Paradise podcast series. I was excited to speak with him about his brand Rampage Sound Global and learning more about how he started his career as a DJ.
DJ Rampage Global; has been apart of the world famous Scratch Academy in New York City teaching the fundamental skills of Djing since 2003. He’s been featured on countless tours like the Pepsi Smash Tour, venues like Canal Room, White Rabbit, publications such as Vibe Magazine, BET’s 106 and Park Countdown and on various radio stations. He has worked with the likes of Daniel Bambaata Marley, Dubwise, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and countless others. I spoke with him right before he left Los Angeles; to go on tour with Ms. Lauryn Hill.

Follow him via instagram @djrampageglobal and  www.rampagesoundglobal.com
"Coco Says" - is insight from Coretta Ryan based on her personal experiences.
Coco Says...DJ Rampage Global believes that learning and having the ability to share what you learn with others is important. There is no lack. There is no need to hoard information. If you are in a position to help others, why not? Help comes in different forms, it could be mentoring, it can be giving a person an introduction, sharing your process with others or simply being an ear to listen. For me, I would not have the exposure to certain opportunities without others sharing what they know with me.

Of the key players in the s0-called reggae revival, many, such as Chronixx (Chronicle), Protoje (Lorna Bennett) and Addis Pablo (Augustus Pablo), have parents with noted reggae…
