Tommie Tei releases début album
Reggae recording artiste Tommie Tei has officially released his début album Progress , which became available on May 22, 2026 through Young Kush Records and Tommie Tei Records.
Blending reggae and dancehall influences, the 11-track project signals a career-defining moment for Tommie Tei.
While the artiste has previously released several singles and a six-track EP, Progress represents his first full-length studio album.
The record primarily features new material, with only two previously shared songs included — Still Can Make It (track #4) and Happy And Free (track #7).
Production duties were divided among Young Kush Records, responsible for nine tracks on the album; K-Jah Sound, which created Happy And Free; and Ghetto Life Records, which handled Still Can Make It.
The overall project was mixed and mastered by Andre Green.
According to Tommie Tei, listeners have been responding positively to the album.
“I am getting a very good response towards the album, persons are liking different songs, especially Work Harder and Happy And Free,” he said.
When asked what he hopes listeners will take away from the project, Tommie Tei pointed to the album’s title.
“I would like listeners to think about the title of the album. The name of the project is what we all need in our day-to-day life,” he said.
Progress is available now on all major digital streaming platforms.
