Reggae artist Steve Knight is sending a powerful message with the release of his latest album, ‘Steve Knight Returns’ —his first in 25 years.
Drawing from a lifetime of experiences, growth, and an enduring passion for reggae music, the veteran singer believes the timing is perfect for his latest release.
“Music is in my soul—it never leaves you,” Knight expressed. “After everything I’ve been through, I knew it was time to share my journey through music once again.”
Despite the long gap between albums, Knight’s artistry has evolved significantly. He feels his music has matured alongside him, deepening in both sound and message.
“My sound is richer, my lyrics are more profound, and my perspective on life and love has expanded,” he explained. With Steve Knight Returns, he aims to uplift, inspire, and remind the world that reggae remains a powerful voice for the people.
Now calling Canada home, Knight credits the country’s diverse culture for broadening his musical influences while keeping his reggae roots strong. His time away from the Jamaican music scene has only deepened his appreciation for the genre and its impact.
Steve Knight believes this isn’t just about releasing an album—it’s about reconnecting with his fans. With plans to tour and perform live, Knight is eager to bring his music to the stage once again.
Knight’s journey hasn’t been all smooth, it was shaped by a life-altering event—a near-death motorcycle accident that shifted his outlook on life.
“It made me realize who my true friends and family are,” he reflected. “I also had to come to terms with the missed opportunities during my recovery—opportunities that could have taken my career to the next level. Most of all, it was a wake-up call that tomorrow isn’t promised, so I have to make every moment count.”
With decades in the industry, Knight is passionate about guiding new reggae artists. His advice? Stay true to the message.
“Respect the foundation, put in the work, and never lose your authenticity,” he urged.
Looking ahead, Steve Knight remains committed to making timeless music, inspiring young artists, and taking reggae to every corner of the world.
Steve Knight Returns is now available on all major streaming platforms.
