Jamila Woods – Heavn [Album]

Jamila Woods shares her new album, “Heavn”. Says Jamila: “‘Heavn’ is about black girlhood, about Chicago, about the people we miss who have gone on to prepare a place for us somewhere else, about the city/world we aspire to live in. I hope this album encourages listeners to love themselves and love each other. For black and brown people, caring for ourselves and each other is not a neutral act. It is a necessary and radical part of the struggle to create a more just society. Our healing and survival are essential to the fight.” Stream or download the 13-track effort below.

Jamila Woods – Heavn [Audio]

Chicago based songstress Jamila Woods plucks an instrumental from The Roots’ “Dilla Joints” project for her latest offering, “Heavn”. “I was thinking about all the barriers set up against love,” Woods explained to The FADER. “I thought about stories of black love in slavery times, how my ancestors had the audacity to love in spite of trauma and violence waged against them. The song became an ode to that history and a call to choose love in spite of the storms we weather.” – Jamila Woods Take a listen below.

Jamila Woods – Blk Grl Soldier [Audio]

“I drew inspiration from a protest chant I learned at a Black Youth Project 100 meeting in Chicago. I love how music and chants were used in the Civil Rights movement to help people keep marching. How songs were both a balm and a call to action. I’m interested in figuring out what freedom songs would sound like in 2016. My hope is that ‘blk girl soldier’ is a freedom song for black women today who are fighting the macro and microagressions of daily life in our city/country/world.” – Jamila Woods
