Kaya was originally released in 1978 and consists of tracks recorded alongside those present on the Exodus album in 1977. The album has a very relaxed, laid back sound, lacking much of the militant quality of the Wailers lyrically and musically. They received criticism for 'going soft' as a result of the general sound of the album as well as the theme: songs primarily revolving around love, as well as marijuana. The album's release coincided with the One Love Peace Concert, heralding Marley's triumphant return to Jamaica from exodus in London. Many of the songs present on this album, as well as its sister album 'Exodus', are rerecorded versions of older tracks present on the album 'Soul Revolution Part II' and the 'African Herbsman' compilation album. Well known songs from the album include 'Is This Love' and 'Satisfy My Soul'.
