The German Jazz Prize 2026 has crowned Johnathan Blake's "My Life Matters" (Blue Note Records, 2025) as the International Album of the Year. Presented in Bremen on April 25th during jazzahead!, this award recognizes one of the most emotionally charged and socially committed jazz albums of the year.

A suite of 14 original compositions, "My Life Matters" was born from a Jazz Gallery commission and addresses police violence and racial injustice in the United States. Blake assembled a stellar cast including Dayna Stephens, Fabian Almazan, Dezron Douglas, Jalen Baker, Bilal, and DJ Jahi Sundance, with production by Derrick Hodge. Personal and political at once, the album features Blake's own children on two tracks, continuing a family tradition of speaking out through music.
