Kamasi Washington – Fearless Movement (2024 Young / XL Recordings 2LP Vinyl)

Released in 2024, Fearless Movement is the long-awaited new album from saxophonist and composer Kamasi Washington, his first full-length since Heaven and Earth (2018). Expansive, soulful, and rhythmically charged, the album showcases Washington’s ability to fuse spiritual jazz with funk, hip-hop, orchestral elements, and groove-driven energy.

Across two LPs, Washington is joined by longtime collaborators from his West Coast Get Down collective, along with guest appearances that stretch the album’s sound beyond genre boundaries. From soaring saxophone solos to lush choral arrangements and deep rhythmic foundations, Fearless Movement is both a personal statement and a celebration of collective creativity.

Ambitious, heartfelt, and overflowing with sound, Fearless Movement confirms Kamasi Washington as one of the most important voices in contemporary jazz.
