Listen to ‘Baldwin‘, the latest offering from Jamila Woods forthcoming LEGACY! LEGACY! LP coming this Friday May 10th via Jagjaguwar in partnership with Closed Sessions. According to Woods: “Baldwin is a song inspired by the work of James Baldwin, particularly the “Letter to My Nephew” in his book The Fire Next Time. He had an incredible ability to speak about whiteness in a way that was hard-hitting and nuanced, and delivered some of the most elegant reads to white America, providing me a lens to think about how I see whiteness at work in my world today.”
