It's a sunny Friday afternoon in Port Antonio, Jamaica, and I am waiting to Skype with Skip. That would be Skip Marley, 18, grandson of Bob and Rita; son of their first child, Cedella, of Melody Makers renown; and grand-nephew of Marcia Griffiths, the so-called Queen of Reggae and a onetime backup singer for Bob Marley and the Wailers.
