Bongo flava singer Ally Saleh Kiba popular by his stage name Alikiba has unveiled the official cover art and name for his upcoming album.

The much anticiapted album titled 'Only One King' has sixteen songs, four of them have already been released, they include 'Infidele', 'Ndombolo', 'Salute' and 'Jealous'.

In the cover, AliKiba is seen seated on a custom throne dressed like a king, to depict his title as the king of Bongo Fleva music.

Speaking during a media briefing, Kiba revealed that the name of the album was suggested by a fan.

"We earlier had a name which was somehow similar to this but this specific one came from a fan through the challenge that I had started on social media" said Kiba.

Adding " About the artists who I have worked with on the album, you will have to forgive me since i will not mention their names. I want it to be a surprise. Just know that it is a Pan African music album.'

Concerning the name King, Kiba stated that there is only one king of Bongo Fleva music and that is him.

"This is a name that came from my fans, I have never reffered to myself as king. The name came up during the time when I was silent and had not released any music, my fans took to social media with the hashtags 'bring back our king', and 'we need you back king'".

"There is always one king, just go anywhere in this world and you will find one king, there has never been more that one king" he added.

The Mwana hitmaker has remained a formidable force in the Bongo flava msuic industry for more than a decade despite the rise of new generations of artistes in the industry which has since been very competitive.

This will be AliKiba's third album after 'Cinderela' released in 2007 and  'Ali K 4 Real' which was released in 2009.

The album will officially be released on October 7.
