FKA Twigs Drops Three More Songs + Videos
If you can't get enough of FKA Twig's recently released "LP1" ,you are in luck. The 26-year-old singer dropped three more tracks, complete with music videos. “Tw-ache,” “Wet Wipez,” and Lucki Eck$'s “Ouch Ouch" (Twigs produced) are just as mysterious as Tahliah Barnett herself; quiet but definitely not subtle. The spirited, free-form dance in "Twa-che" and "Wet Wipez" is classic Barnett but "Ouch Ouch" has a different edge, and it might make you cringe.
Barnett recently clarified via twitter that fans and critics shouldn't separate her own identity as Tahliah Barnett from the artist FKA Twigs -- they are one and the same.
Twigs will embark on an international and domestic tour (see below for dates) where the free-form dancing will continue, but she has made it clear that connecting her to any genre or expectations is pointless.
“I once said to a boy, ‘You’re a really good kisser,’ and he said, ‘You’re only as good as the person you’re kissing,’ ” she told Billboard. “I think it’s the same with the music. If someone [says], ‘Your music is really provocative,’ I’m only as provocative as the person that’s listening to it.”
