Ky-Mani Marley returns with A Little Bit (I’m Okay), the fourth and final single ahead of his highly anticipated new album, Love and Energy, due August 28, 2026 via his Konfrontation Muzik label in partnership with New York-based DubShot Records.

Written by Ky-Mani Marley, Imani Marley and Shaquel Leon, A Little Bit (I’m Okay) turns a deeply personal chapter in Marley’s life into an honest reflection on mistakes, uncertainty, resilience, and, ultimately, acceptance.

Rather than pretending everything is perfect, Ky-Mani lands somewhere more real: Life can take you down roads you never expected, force you to question yourself and leave you carrying lessons you never asked for — and you can still come through it able to say, I’m okay.

A Little Bit (I’m Okay) became a crowd favourite during Ky-Mani’s recent Love and Energy summer. A live video for the song on his YouTube channel, captures an intimate performance filmed at the Toulouse Rio Loco Festival in France this past June, alongside behind-the-scenes footage from the road.

Built around a classic one-drop reggae rhythm and the distinctive cry of pedal steel guitar from musician Tal Morris, the track was produced by Ky-Mani Marley, Anthony Smith and Llamar “Riff Raff” Brown.

For Marley, the message is not about having life completely figured out. It is about making peace with the journey.

“Sometimes life doesn’t go the way you planned, and you don’t always have all the answers. But you learn, you grow and you keep moving. For me, being able to say ‘I’m okay’ doesn’t mean everything is perfect — it means I’ve made peace with where I’ve been and I’m grateful for where I am… This album is probably one of the most honest reflections of where I am today,” says Ky-Mani Marley.

The sentiment sits at the heart of Love and Energy, a 14-song collection accompanied by two spoken-word reflections and marking Ky-Mani’s first solo studio album in more than a decade.

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

Ky-Mani first emerged with his 1996 début album, Like Father Like Son, and went on to release acclaimed projects including Many More Roads (2001), Maestro (2015), and
Conversations (2016), his collaborative album with Gentleman.
