Yusuf / Cat Stevens has released a new album of original music today, King of a Land, via BMG / Dark Horse Records. More than a decade in the making, the twelve-song collection serves as a deeply meaningful and moving self-portrait by one of popular music’s most enduring and beloved songwriters - touching on themes of unity, peace, joy, and childlike wonder.

In a brand new song released today titled "King of a Land," Yusuf’s lyrics speak to a clear frustration with the state of the postmodern world: “If I was a king of a land, I’d free every woman and man…If I ran the schools of this world…If I had a mountain of gold.”
