One Love, One Life is the fifteenth studio album by the Jamaican reggae singer Beres Hammond, released as a double album on 13 November 2012 by VP Records. One Love, One Life consists of 20 songs and Hammond himself produced 19 out of 20 songs with various co-producers including Donovan Germain on "No Candle Light", Collin 'Bulby' York on "In My Arms", and Michael Fletcher on "More Time". The first disc, One Love features Hammond's distinctive classic lovers rock sounds, such as "No Candle Light", "In My Arms", and "Keep Me Warm". In contrast, the second disc concentrates on socially conscious and empowering tracks such as "You Stand Alone", "Truth Will Live On", and "Prime Time".

One Love, One Life was Hammond's first album in four years. In January 2014 it was nominated for a Grammy Award.
