Ky-Mani soon began experimenting with laying tracks, at times with his brothers, Stephen, Julian and Damian. He became inspired as a singer after being asked to sing a hook to a song during a recording session at a studio in Miami. His first single was "Unnecessary Badness". While a teenager, Ky-Mani started rapping and deejaying. As an athlete, he competed in soccer and American football.
With his mother's direction, he received piano and guitar lessons and played trumpet in his high school band. In his early youth, Ky-Mani was unaware of his musical abilities, sports being his first love. At the age of nine, Ky-Mani and Belnavis relocated to Miami, Florida. I give this 8/10 and the film is recommended for those who appreciate films like Romeo is Bleeding and Scarface, for instance.Ky-Mani Marley was born in Falmouth, Jamaica, to Anita Belnavis, a Jamaican table tennis champion and reggae superstar Bob Marley. The Krays is important piece of 90's cinema and very powerful depiction of different kinds of corruption that finally lead to destruction and death of dreams. If the characters were little more natural and believable, this would be even greater piece of cinema. Also, the girl who plays Reggie's wife over-acts little in some scenes and it is irritating to watch as it is not as realistic and natural as possible. Mostly I'm irritated how Reggie treats his wife since there seems to be believable emotional relationship between the two. That is also the case in another film written by Philip Ridley, The Passion of Darkly Noon. I think the characters are somewhat too shallow occasionally and their acts are not fully explained all the time. This film is very powerful as the aforementioned last scene is very sad and though provoking, and really underlines the final message of the film. Music is often effective and violence is off putting, as the attitudes and values of the movie's characters are, too. The part when mother Kray realizes what her boys do "for living" is very powerful and told with the very effective tools of cinema. Technically The Krays is a proof of Medak's talent as the photography is great and the film is very powerful in its elements. She is very feminine and all the female characters seem to hate males in this movie, but that is perhaps all some males deserve in the film since all they seem to be able to do is getting drunk and fight and not help the females in any way.
This film has also very powerful female characters, mainly the mother of brothers. Love is also destroyed because other things become more important for Reggie, who has found a girlfriend.
The film also tells about females and love. The last scene in The Krays is very powerful and important as it crystallizes the whole message of the film. The theme is pretty much the same as in DePalma's Scarface and many other similar depictions of power and money. The greediness and other forms of corruption - like revenge - become so strong that they finally destroy everything the brothers have reached. "When people are afraid of you, you can do anything" says Ronnie Kray to his brother Reggie. This film is a depiction of power, greed and money and how it corrupts. When the twin brothers grew, they began to get power and finally they become very powerful and strong gangsters, who finally met their destiny. They were born to normal family where their mother (Billie Whitelaw), a very strong female character, brought them up among a world that was filled with "useless men" and females that fought in difficult circumstances during war and poverty. It tells the story of real life Kray twins gangsters (Gary and Martin Kemp from Spandau Ballet) that kept England in horror in the middle of 1900's. Both have done great films like Romeo Is Bleeding (Medak) and Passion of Darkly Noon (Ridley) and The Krays is not an exception. Peter Medak directed this film from the screenplay of Philip Ridley.
