“Love & Energy isn't just an album title. It's a way of life. Everything in this world is driven by energy, and love is the highest vibration we can give and receive,” Ky-Mani shared.

The announcement follows Ky-Mani’s recently completed European leg of the Love & Energy Tour, where he gave fans a taste of the upcoming album. During his appearance at the historic 40th staging of Summerjam Festival in Cologne, Germany, he performed the unreleased “A Little Bit (I’m Okay),” offering audiences another preview of what is to come.

Ky-Mani’s next major stop will be Toronto on August 22 for a special performance at the Marley family’s signature Kaya Fest, where he will join his brothers Stephen, Julian and Damian Marley on a star-studded lineup that also features Busta Rhymes, Shabba Ranks and Lila Iké.
