I came across this little gem thanks to a link from The xx on Facebook, and I have listened/watched this video on repeat for the past two days.
The video has had over 130,000 at last count and it will only continue to gain more hits due to the incredible production of the song and with the clearly obvious WEIRD factor.
Researching this young artist a bit more, I uncovered an EP that she released as just 'Twigs' back in December. Each of the 4 songs on the EP have an accompanying video which can be found on FKA Twigs YouTube account. Its worth checking it out!
The video in question that I was referring to earlier is for a new song called 'Water Me'.
It is the first offering from the Londoner after she signed to Young Turks, which also have The xx, SBTRKT and Sampha on their books.
'Water Me' is a haunting, low-fi electronic track that you can easily get lost in. Combined with the visually stunning video, the eyes of FKA Twigs draws you in, and the vulnerability in her voice is amplified by the visuals.
Check out 'Water Me' below:
EP 2 from FKA Twigs features four new songs, including 'Water Me' and is out on September 9.
