Jamaican-born artist Kristine Alicia is set to revolutionize the reggae landscape with her transformative new single “Mek Love,” a profound musical journey that transcends traditional boundaries of genre and emotion. Produced through a groundbreaking collaboration between CYCLONE MUSIC GROUP and HUNGRY BELLY RECORDS, the track is a testament to resilience, love, and personal transformation.
Slated for release on December 11, the “Mek Love” video represents more than a musical offering—it’s a raw, intimate exploration of healing from life’s most challenging moments. The single and its accompanying music video chronicle Kristine’s remarkable artistic evolution, emerging from personal tragedy to a space of powerful self-discovery and creative freedom.
The genesis of “Mek Love” is as extraordinary as the track itself. Conceived during a moment of vulnerability—while battling illness and emotional stress—the song crystallizes Kristine’s ability to transform personal struggle into universal art. “I wanted to capture the feeling of being truly cared for, of experiencing love as a healing force,” Kristine explains. “This song is about surrendering to love’s transformative power.”
Her journey from gospel-driven reggae to a more expansive musical expression reflects a broader narrative of personal reinvention. Following the devastating loss of her husband, Kristine found solace and strength in music, using her art as a conduit for healing and self-expression. “Music became my lifeline,” she reflects. “It taught me to create without fear, to be completely transparent.”
The upcoming music video promises to be a visual representation of the song’s emotional landscape, inviting viewers to experience love’s multifaceted nature. Designed to evoke a sense of safety, vulnerability, and emotional liberation, the video continues Kristine’s mission of creating art that touches and transforms.
Adding to the excitement, Kristine is set to perform at the 4th Staging of The Essence of Music Festival in Kingston, Jamaica—a homecoming that symbolizes her artistic journey and continued connection to her roots.
“‘Mek Love’ is more than a song,” Kristine shares. “It’s a celebration of life, a testament to the healing power of authentic expression. This is a new chapter where I’m not just singing, but truly living my truth.”
Fans can anticipate “Mek Love” as the first glimpse into Kristine’s upcoming love album—a comprehensive emotional odyssey two years in the making. The project promises to explore the intricate textures of love, dating, and personal growth.
