Kamasi Washington | Fearless Movement
On his latest project, "Fearless Movement," Kamasi Washington shifts his musical focus towards the realm of dance, continuing his exploration of music as a universal language of connection. Following the acclaim of his groundbreaking albums, "The Epic" (2015) and "Heaven and Earth" (2018), which were celebrated for redefining modern jazz with their majestic and expansive compositions that skillfully blend elements of jazz, Latin, funk, classical, hip-hop, and soul, Washington introduces a new direction with "Fearless Movement."
This album diverges into the exploration of earthy beats and sees the artist engaging in collaborations with a diverse lineup of talent including renowned rappers, celebrated musical figures, and even his daughter. The album boasts an impressive roster of collaborators such as Thundercat, Taj Austin, Ras Austin, Patrice Quinn, DJ Battlecat, Brandon Coleman, D-Smoke, George Clinton, Bj the Chicago Kid, and Andre 3000.
