To celebrate the launch of Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong Radio (Ch. 19) on SiriusXM, we’re testing your knowledge of Bob Marley. How much do you know about the reggae legend? Find out by taking the quiz below, and don’t forget to stream the channel to set the mood.

Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong Radio, curated by the Marley family, includes a wide range of Caribbean music from its inception to present day. Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong Radio also highlights the branches of his still-growing musical legacy, including The Wailers, I-Threes, Tuff Gong International, the record label founded by Marley in the ‘70s, and his children and grandchildren as they continue to make their own impact on reggae and popular music.

Additionally, the new channel presents specialty programs and takeovers led by family members from three generations. Bob’s daughter, award-winning entertainer, fashion designer, and author Cedella Marley, hosts her own monthly radio series, Nice Time, inviting listeners into her world for an “upful bit” of conversation, music, and niceness. Grandson, Skip Marley, a recent Grammy nominee for both his debut album and his hit collaboration “Slow Down” with H.E.R., shares some of his favorite moments behind the making of his music.

The channel also originates shows from Tuff Gong Studios in Jamaica, including Jam-In, a monthly live music session featuring Jamaica’s hottest sound systems and selectors. The December edition is headlined by the legendary Stone Love Movement and features the popular Jamaican comedy duo, Ity & Fancy Cat.
