Rohan Marley, partners propose new marijuana dispensary for Montclair
September 11, 2019

Montclair could be getting a second medical marijuana dispensary in the near future, with the backing of a business partnership that includes one of the children of reggae icon Bob Marley.

Rohan Marley, in partnership with the Colorado-based business Lightshade, has filed an application with the state for a license to operate a medical dispensary in Montclair.

If the application is approved, Lightshade Montclair would become the township’s second dispensary, and Lightshade’s first dispensary outside of Colorado.

Rohan Marley is one of the 11 children of the late Bob Marley, the Jamaican reggae singer, musician and songwriter. Rohan Marley, a former football player for the Ottawa Rough Riders, has branched out into several business ventures, including the coffee-growing industry.

Lightshade’s application for a Montclair medical marijuana dispensary was submitted during the most recent application period for licensing, which ended in August. “It’s a hurry-up-and-wait process,” said Mike Leach, Lightshade’s chief operating officer.

Greenleaf Compassion Center, on Bloomfield Avenue, was the first dispensary to open in New Jersey in December 2012.

New Jersey intends to allow 24 dispensaries, known as alternative treatment centers, to operate in the state. Eight of those would be located in the northern region, which includes Essex County, eight would be in the central region and six would be in the southern region.

The state has given preliminary approval to six of the most recent round of applications for new medical marijuana dispensaries this year, which will bring the number of dispensaries in the state to 12. Lightshade was not one of those six, as its application is still under review. The Department of Health declined to comment on the application’s status on Friday for that reason.

Damian Marley & Investor Group Buy Control of 'High Times' Magazine

Put this in your pipe and smoke it.

High Times, the magazine that for decades has been the go-to bible for backyard pot growers and cocktail party tokers has been sold to a group of investors that includes reggae musician and ganga guru Damian Marley.

The son of the late reggae superstar Bob Marley is one of 20 investors who acquired a 60 percent stake in High Times, its digital media platforms and its increasingly popular Cannabis Cup trade shows.





The purchase price wasn't revealed but Adam Levin, whose Los Angeles-based investment firm, Oreva Capital, put together the deal, said the company is valued at $70 million.

Levin, whose company specializes in acquiring undervalued media properties, said he, Marley and other partners believe they have landed a gem.

Although other magazines have struggled, High Times' new owners say it has retained a loyal print subscriber base of more than 200,000 with millions more following it online. Perhaps its most lucrative source of income, however, is its Cannabis Cup trade shows at which prizes are awarded for the best buds.

What began as a single, somewhat clandestine meeting in an Amsterdam hotel room in 1988 has grown to 11 events last year with more planned for 2017. As many as 25,000 people attended one in Southern California in February.






As marijuana use becomes legal in more and more states, Levin sees those audiences growing, as well as opportunities for more branding of concerts, clothing and other sources of revenue.

It's a dramatic change from the early years of the magazine that was founded in 1974 by former drug smuggler Tom Forcade and once sold at newsstands in the same opaque plastic bags used to shield the covers of porn magazines.

"It was much more of a crazy, burgeoning pot smuggler magazine when it originated," Levin acknowledged Thursday.

He added, however, that it is now the trusted brand of cannabis lovers everywhere.

"We're the Wine Aficionado of the cannabis industry," he said, referring to the popular wine magazine
