The name \u2018Marlon\u2019 was a name given to him by his father who adopted it from Marlon Jackson as Marlon Jackson was his father favourite artist, who is a former member of the world-renowned Jackson 5 which was an American pop band that was composed of the Jackson family with members such as Jackie, Tito, and Jermaine, Marlon and the King of Pop himself Michael Jackson, the name Marlin as he recalls was given to him by the \u201cpeople\u201d as many of his friends and other members of his family as well as peers including teachers and other people would mistakenly misspell his name by replacing the \u2018o\u2019 in his name with an \u201ci\u201d and as he grew up he later adjust to it by turning the wrong into a right as he would later use it for a bigger and greater purpose.<\/p>\n<p>He notes as he was growing up that he was heavily influenced by the various genres of music which were played in his household as a child and as a result of that it has lead to the upcoming musician deciding to pursue a career in the music industry at a young age of 8 years old when he joined a Primary school choir and not only that but it had lead to him creating and putting out the music that he makes today. In April 2017 Marlin released his debut offering and it was titled, \u2018The Pleasure Is All Mine\u2019 which was a compilation project that he regards as a \u201ccollection of singles\u201d that comprised of eight songs, was executively produced a producer who goes under the aliases of Bopsy Fresh and the successful release of this project has gained Marlin international recognition in various parts of Africa, United Kingdom &amp; America including Indonesia and overall the project has achieved over 31400+downloads and streams overall.<\/p>\n<p>The success of his debut offering lead to him and Bopsy Fresh releasing a bonus version to the project with twelve new songs and that compilation project did very well as it made the top 200 album for the year worldwide on the Audiomack charts and it was competing with the likes of Jonghyun and Quavo (fellow Migos member) , Lil Durk including Young Thug himself and along with that came the international recognition that made him an up-comer to look out for, in addition the successful release of the bonus edition to \u2018The Pleasure Is All Mine\u2019 has achieved over 56 000+ in downloads and streams, all this information of achievements, accolades can be found on his various social-media platforms that his active on as the upcoming musician likes to document his journey as well as humbly share them on those platforms with his supporters that he addresses as the \u201cRoyal Family\u201d which comprises of both the male and female genders and therefore they addresses as Kings and Queens as they make up the support system.<\/p>\n<p>Marlin has teamed up with his producer Bopsy Fresh to put out his sophomore project titled, \u2018So Far So Good\u2019 which is another compilation project (collection of singles) that can be added to his discography and this latest offering is a short, conscience body of work consisting of only nine songs ,only features three fellow upcoming artists (Foza and Killa-Stryder, Vee Mason).
