Обложка альбома «Water Made Us» — Jamila Woods

The title of Chicago artist Jamila Woods’ third album, <i>Water Made Us</i>, is a subtle reference to a quote from Toni Morrison: “All water has a perfect memory and is forever trying to get back to where it was.” It’s this ethos that runs through Woods’ first album since 2019’s <i>LEGACY! LEGACY!</i>, consumed with memory and place, the power of returning, and the way things change even as they stay the same—and stay the same as they change. She recruited LA-based producer McClenney to help build the album from scratch, hammering the songs to fit these themes one by one. <i>Water Made Us</i> boasts features from Saba, Peter CottonTale and duendita, who assists with herR&B-soul concoctions on “Tiny Garden”. The album’s second song, “Garden” features a soul-inspired groove, delicate keyboard chords and Woods’ upper-register voice floating above. “It’s not gonna be a big production, it’s not butterflies and fireworks/Said it’s gonna be a tiny garden, but I’ll feed it every day,” she sings. It leads the song into a chorus filled with harmonies and technicolour guitar flourishes. The moment is a snapshot of small ideas coalescing into something large, a tiny garden with the scars of history.
