Themes on the album include love, overcoming obstacles and celebrating life.[4] Never Ending includes a love song about Jamaica called "Land of Sunshine." The lead single, "I'm Alive", is a 21st-century 'roots' track with Hammond singing praises for life's simple and essential joys. "My Kinda Girl" is an example of modern lovers rock – a sub genre of reggae for which the artist is known.[5][6] Hammond is known to be in the studio three or four times a week when he is in Jamaica. He records songs based on events that happen naturally in life. He is known to visit people - whom he does not know – but who enjoy sharing stories about their lives with him. He internalizes those experiences and records them in song.[7]
The visual for the "Never Ending" music video was directed by RD Studios and portrays Hammond's childhood. Fans are shown the beginning of his love for music to his current-day performing in front of Harmony House – his recording studio on Dumbarton Avenue. Throughout the four-minute video, artistes influenced by Hammond make a cameo. They include Jah Cure, Alborosie, Romain Virgo, Christopher Martin, Shenseea, Jesse Royal, Bulby York, Kurt Riley, and Teflon Zinc Fence.[8]
