Stings is the latest album from the one and only Kamaal Williams, marking another groundbreaking chapter in his genre-blurring musical journey. Widely recognized for his pivotal role in reshaping the landscape of UK jazz with the game-changing Yussef Kamaal’s Black Focus (2016) with Yussef Dayes, which started a journey in the artist’s output then developed in two amazing projects: The Return (2018) and Wu Hen (2020). Kamaal Williams has continued to push boundaries under his own name and his club-oriented alias, Henry Wu - marking a generation of electronic jazz aficionados.

Wu Hen is the sophomore album from Peckham visionary Kamaal Williams an invitation to elevate to a higher state. Cinematic strings from Miguel-Atwood Ferguson and virtuoso saxophone from Quinn Mason are textural additions that make for a deeper, multi-layered experience than previous releases. Bringing groove back to the forefront, Wu Hen oscillates between celestial jazz, funk, rap and r&b reinforced with the rugged beat-heavy attitude of grime, jungle, house and garage – a self-styled fusion Kamaal describes as Wu Funk.
