- Celebrity offspring seem destined for one of two paths.
- The first leads to a whiny family biography (followed by
- recurring appearances on Geraldo), the second, to a career in
- exactly what ever it is that made Mom or Dad famous. Thankfully,
- NONA GAYE, daughter of icon Marvin, and Jakob Dylan, son of
- icon Bob, have taken the latter route. On her debut album, Love
- for the Future, Nona, 18, cranks out candy-girl pop that may
- mislead listeners into thinking she's genetically linked to
- Paula Abdul. There is, however, no mistaking the line of Jakob's
- musical influence. A singer and lead songwriter for the
- WALLFLOWERS, the junior Dylan has a folk-rock rasp that sounds
- a lot like his legendary papa's. But don't make the comparison.
- Jakob's not one to wax gracious about big Bob and his legacy:
- "He inspired me as much as any parent. I try not to address the
- topic."
