Marlon Jackson was born on March 12, 1957, in Gary, Indiana, the youngest of the Jackson 5. His father, Joseph Jackson, was a steel mill worker, and his mother, Katherine Jackson, was a homemaker. He has four older brothers: Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, and Michael.
Marlon’s early education took place at home; his mother taught him and his siblings how to read and write. His father instilled in him a love of music, and he began playing the drums when he was just five years old.
Marlon’s career with the Jackson 5 began when he was just seven years old. The group achieved massive success, releasing hit singles like “I Want You Back” and “ABC.” They went on to sell over 100 million records worldwide.
In 1984, Marlon left the Jackson 5 to pursue a solo career. He released his debut album, Baby Tonight, in 1987. The album was a moderate success, but its follow-up, 1989’s Be My Lady, failed to make an impact.
Marlon’s career took a turn in the early 1990s when he appeared in the films The Mighty Quinn (1989) and Menace II Society (1993). He also had a recurring role on the television series Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
In 2001, Marlon reunited with his brothers for a reunion tour. The tour was a huge success, and it led to a new album, 2004’s Victory.
Marlon has been married twice. His first marriage, to Carol Parker, ended in divorce. He has two children from that marriage: Marlon Jr. and Valentina. His second marriage, to Deborah Rowe, lasted from 1996 to 1999. They have two children together: Paris and Prince Michael II.
Marlon has an estimated net worth of $5 million. His salary is not publicly known, but he has earned significant earnings from his music career and his appearances in film and television.
Marlon is 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighs approximately 160 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes.
