Damian has been performing since the age of thirteen (13). Most of Bob's children are reggae artist, but Gong performs reggae, reggae fusion, dancehall, dub, ragga and hip hop.

To date, (2010) he has released four (4) albums.

For his 2006 album "Welcome to Jamrock", he won 2 Grammys, Best Reggae Album and Best Urban/Alternative Performance.

Presently, he is the only reggae artist to win 2 Grammy Awards on the same night.

The titled single from the album was considered to be the best reggae song of the decade by the New York Times.

In 2018 Damain won another Grammy for his album titled "Stony Hill". [See List Grammy Winner]

Like his father and family members Damian is a devoted Rastafarian and carries these beliefs wherever he goes.
