Marley say coming in for a start (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rasta

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'marley' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'coming in for a start' is the wordplay.
'coming in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'RASTA' can be found hidden inside 'for a start'.

'say' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rasta that I've seen before include "sectarian worshipper" , "Disciple" , "Sectarian of Jamaican origin (colloq.)" , "Member of WI religion" , "Member of religious movement originating in Jamaica" .)
