blame it on Meka October 16, 2023

Her first full-length release since 2019’s LEGACY! LEGACY!, Jamila Woods returns with her third album Water Made Us.

Water Made Us is a study on relationships. My heart is wired this way for a reason and I’m always seeking to understand it. These songs attempt to create new language to express my hesitancy, my ambivalence, my attachments, my obsessions,” Woods says about the project. “Shoutout to all of my collaborators who inspired me and pushed me to grow through the process of making the album. I’m so grateful for the many lessons water teaches, especially surrender, lessons I stay learning again and again.”

A 17-song offering, the album was preceded by the focus tracks “Tiny Garden,” “Boomerang,” “and “Good News.” Guest contributions come courtesy of Saba, duendita, Peter CottonTale, and Gia Margaret.
