Her first full-length release since 2019’s LEGACY! LEGACY!, Jamila Woods returned with her third album Water Made Us in October 2023. With her eponymous tour underway, she shares a video for “Still.”
“‘Still’ is a song about the space before ‘getting over,’ the period of time where you feel the presence of a past love even when they’re long gone,” Woods says. “Sometimes ignoring or resisting the memories doesn’t help, you have to let them in, offer them a glass of water and maybe even dance with them in order for them to finally let you go. The character ‘Absence,’ played by dancer Owen Scarlett, represents this lingering loved one. My friend, musician and filmmaker Hollis Wong-Wear directed the video and we worked with the brilliant Jas Lin on the choreography.”
