“Light & Love” delivers a bold message of unity and cultural fusion, bridging continents through music. On the song’s uplifting chorus, Julian — the British-Jamaican son of musical icon Bob Marley — and South London native singer-songwriter-producer, Hypertone, offer healing words of enlightenment over an electronic dancehall track, courtesy of Greek maestro Antaeus:
When it hurts
Look to the Earth
Don’t bother with chemicals
God works miracles that you deserve
Long Life Good Light And Love
A!MS adds his signature rapping and melodic wordplay to the verses with a positive alternative to the harsh realities of modern-day society:
They wanna leave us out in the jungle alone
Don’t believe them they just want the control
Long Life Good Light And Love
An official video, directed by WALKMNS also premiered today on A!MS’ YouTube channel. The new visuals feature impassioned performances from A!MS, Marley, and Hypertone as they vibe to the hard-hitting rhythm. The multi-talented A!MS is also seen flaunting his Mediterranean roots as he plucks out a refrain on the bouzouki strings, adding some international texture to the eclectic arrangement.

“Light & Love,” co-written by A!MS and singer-songwriter Alika, is a powerful anthem that A!MS has dubbed “Global Street,” a hybrid subgenre born from his multiethnic background, blending hip hop’s outsider spirit with global sounds, street culture, and digital-era creativity.
“The ‘Global Street’ concept can break more boundaries and limits that genres try to confine and bottle talent,” said A!MS, whose ancestry can be traced to Cyprus, Lebanon, and Italy. He expanded on his vision with, “art is limitless. Music can be timeless. The streets of the world can come together! It’s already been happening, it just needed a starting point and an identity, but people will bridge gaps, and sounds will fuse from all parts
of the world.”
From June to August, in the build-up to the album release, A!MS is once again hosting a new series of his Wave Fest at WaterWorld WaterPark in his current base of Ayia Napa in Cyprus. Last year saw the likes of ArrDee, Dappy, and Nemzzz, plus many more to the party destination.
