Kamaal Williams

Kamaal Williams aka Henry Wu aka one half of the duo Yussef Kamaal aka Black Focus Records label boss.

Kamaal Williams is the latest project led by prolific South London artist Henry Wu. As the mastermind behind Yussef Kamaal, Wu released a landmark album for British jazz with 2016’s Black Focus. This latest collective continues the tradition of fusing jazz with the sound of urban London, with a live show that captures all the raw energy for which Wu has become known. The following year, the multi-instrumentalist took the helm of his own DJ-mix album DJ-Kicks, in which he laid out a musical panorama of his city against the backdrop of jazzy house.

Under the name Kamaal Williams, Henry Wu draws on soul, funk and broken beat to create a deeply groovy 21st century sound.
