History continues to smile on Ami Faku, Vth Season's award-winning, platinum-selling darling of Afrosoul. After a momentous run of African Collaborations with the greater half of West Africa,  she is called to immortalize the Lion fire of the late Reggae Legend Bob Marley. Ami Faku stands proudly as the only singer-songwriter to be featured on Bob Marley & The Wailer's Pan African and Jamaican posthumous album 'Africa Unite,' offering her consoling, soul-stirring rendition of the iconic "Redemption Song", which Joins a legacy of Timeless Covers that predate it.

 
Produced by Mike Brainchild, Ami Faku's "Redemption Song" cover joins the lineage of illustrious artists who have paid tribute to this timeless masterpiece, including Stevie Wonder, Joe Strummer of The Clash, Bono of U2, John Legend, and Wyclef Jean, among others. Each artist has brought their unique interpretation to the song, further cementing its status as a symbol of hope, unity, and freedom.
 
Bob Marley's "Redemption Song" is significant in music history. The final track on his twelfth album, 'Uprising,' the song was written during a time when Marley was grappling with his mortality due to a cancer diagnosis. The heartfelt solo acoustic recording features Marley's vocals and acoustic guitar, delivering powerful penmanship derived from a speech by the Pan-Africanist orator Marcus Garvey titled "The Work That Has Been Done."
 
The song's profound meaning urges listeners to "Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds," a message inspired by Marcus Garvey's call for mental liberation and empowerment. Over the years, "Redemption Song" has been recognized as one of the greatest works of Bob Marley, resonating with audiences worldwide and earning its place in Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time."
