Wavy, brilliant R&B - Jamila Woods in VEGA
Musician and poet Jamila Woods is finally releasing a new album on October 13th. Water Made Us follows LEGACY! LEGACY from 2019, whose 13 songs echoed both the past and promise for the future, and Woods always manages to create ambitious concepts for her albums.
And Water Made Us is no exception. On this album, she attempts to answer what it means to surrender completely to love. Woods embraces new genres as she wades through the wreckage and shelters of love.
In September, a taste of the new album landed in the form of the single "Good News", which was joined by the song "Boomerang" and "Tiny Garden" featuring duendita. The song is about how Woods' heart works, the slow and steady way she loves others.
The album's title is taken from the author Toni Morrison quote, "All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was." That sentiment serves as a foundation for the album's narrative arc.
The songs remind us that love at its best is a warm, calm ocean. At its worst, it can be an undercurrent that takes us so far away from ourselves that we can barely find our way back or remember how to swim.
Jamila Woods has surrendered to the surf because even the most painful endings can be an invitation calling her home - back to the shore, back to herself.

Madame Gandhi er en prisvindende artist, der er anerkendt for sin opløftende elektroniske musik. Hendes seneste EP er fra 2022 og hedder Vibrations. Hvilket er præcis det hendes musik, gør ved én – sender søde vibrationer gennem hele kroppen.
Udover sin rytmiske sans er Madame Gandhi også politisk aktiv med positive budskaber omkring kønsfrigørelse. Hun blev blandt andet viral i medierne i 2015 efter at have løbet London Maraton som fribløder for at bekæmpe stigma omkring menstruation. Hendes politiske budskaber afspejles i høj grad i hendes berusende elektroniske univers via både lyd og lyrik.
