FKA TWIGS - CAPRISONGS / 2022 / YOUNG RECORDINGS / ALT-POP, R&B, TRAP
8/10
Y'all know this is just my opinion, right? Видеоклипы
Caprisongs is her Solar Power but it’s done correctly
NAURRR but so true actually 🤔
I'm glad she allowed herself to have a light and breezy time after all the shit she's been through. This was a great project.
was ? it's not even on my turntable yet
@@escaton74 ok
I agree. I worried it would be a lot about Shia but instead she moved on and made something fun. I hope she restarts that tour that was supposed to happen and I can see her live.
Which songs is are alt pop
yes i agree, i feel like the purpose was to place her focus on being busy on something new and exciting, different than her usual stuff, and be fun and lighthearted
The fact that The Weekend and Shygirl are on the same project gives me a lot of hope for music in 2022.
That part!
LMAOOOO
😭😭

It's probably her most accessible project, but it still holds on to her signature quirks for that bit of oddity that makes long-time feel right at home with this new batch of tracks. We both gave it the same score.
I never heard of her before yesterday, and it's so interesting to hear so many people mention the accessibility of this record. As a newcomer to Twigs's music, I couldn't have come at a better time. And maybe I actually could not have come to appreciate it before now.
@@alabrrmrbmmr I'm the exact same, this album made me listen to the rest of her discography
Yes. Loved this project. So happy you enjoyed it. It wasn’t as artistic as her last stuff, but she does this catchy sound literally so much justice. She still feels like she is in a lane of her own here.

@@HipHopfan_ I care, who doesn't like Brad!?
gonna have to agree with you Anthony, if it was called Capri-Sun it would’ve been a 10
🤦🏼♂️
I think that’s why he subbed over himself when he said the name. No doubt he said capri-songs lmao
@@deathakid ? Dude that’s like a real easy joke to make.
I hate y’all 😂
@@HipHopfan_ I know I can't believe she didn't call it Capri-Sun 🤦♂️
it’s so addictive i haven’t stopped listening since friday
yh fr I listened to it like 7 times when it dropped haha
I feel like this mixtape is like a celebration of Twigs finally being able to move on from the stuff she's been through and is now free to finally live in her happiness. Loved the mixtape!
This was such a UK-influenced tape. So fucking cool. ☄️☄️☄️
“UK-influenced”? SHE’S ENGLISH LMAO
@@ethand.5937 thats what mans said smh
@@ethand.5937 They didn’t say she wasn’t?
@@ethand.5937 there is no way a person listens to this mixtape & doesn’t recognise her english accent lol
This album is better than Shia Lebeouf’s whole career
Honey Boy is great tho. twigs is on it
true
Peanut butter falcon boi
@@mateussantiagolage1005 Shia abused FKA Twigs
Bro, you seen Honey Boy, Peanutbutter Falcon and especially Nymphomaniac? He can be a fantastic actor actually, but yeah, he’s just him
I actually really enjoyed this. It's a lot more easy-to-digest and "simple" compared to Twigs' past stuff, but it was a really fun listen and I'd come back to a lot of the tracks. Glad you liked it too!!
I felt the same way. It's fun. I just found her music yesterday I think this artist is going to blow up.
That is a great take, ThiccPoohBear64
It’s a fresh sound for twigsy, she’s always had an electronic style but this feels like she was having fun; but kept it ambitious to a point where it can still be taken seriously.
Twisgy?? iiight guess we callin her that now
twigsy malone?
Lil twigsy 🔥🔥🔥
twigsy goes hard tho 🔥🔥🔥
I’ve never heard anyone call her twigsy😭
This is definitely her most conventional and radio-friendly and club-friendly collection of songs, and I knew she was going in that direction before this came out. But I’m so glad she didn’t sacrifice her lush, layered and beautiful production present in her other two albums for the sake of making more pop-centric conventional music. The instrumentals on this album are immaculate
Loved this album, FKA Twigs is a great artist, she hasnʼt missed once.
factual
This could go down as one of the best years in music, especially for pop music, between this mixtape and Dawn FM, we're looking at a potentially very exciting and sprawling year for albums. I can't wait!
And Death Grips might be coming back which is all that really needs to be said
@@damone7524 gay tier level of music taste
@@southerndiscomfort171 This is very bold and brave to say on a fantano vid
@@southerndiscomfort171 do you poop?
So far it's been great, though I really hope Kendrick, Sampha and Ocean release this year. If not, I'm still great with A$AP Rocky and Danny Brown as there are so many artist who'll potentially drop this year.
I wouldn't call it RnB, Twigs has said in the past that when she started releasing music people were really captivated by her sound, they hadn't heard music like that before and didn't feel like it fit any conventional genre, she was anonymous back then and didn't have her face attached to her music, but when photos of her were published people out of nowhere started calling her music RnB, and she was like, and I'm paraphrasing, "that's not what I'm going for, are you just saying this cause I'm black?"
I think Fantano called her "queen of alternative R&B" on an old video 🤣
god it's alternative rnb, all that shit you're talking about comes under that
not for nothing they started calling her rnb since rnb is defining mainly by vocals and twigs on her EP2 and LP1 was making pure rnb vocals despite unusual deconstructed electronic sonic landscapes. it's called alternative rnb. magdalene, however, has much less rnb influences.
I really like the samples on this thing
wassup sample man
great news for Bandstand fans!!
Missed ya bud welcome back, hope things are going well for you lately
@@lorenheckard5146 Amazing
u should make a video
I also really felt like she had sooo much fun writing and performing these songs!! and the colabs too
I think the term "mixtape" gives artists more freedom to put like a 50 second song or spoken word or just random songs that maybe dont flow as coherent and there's no overall narrative for the whole project
Favorite album of the year so far. It’s been on repeat for me since it came out and I know I’ll be coming back to it for a long time. Oh My Love and Meta Angel are for sure highlights!
Oh my love has no right slapping that hard
Oh my love and meta angel are my two favorites from the mixtape. Lightbeamers is a close third but when this album dropped oh my love was the ONLY song I listened to on repeat for maybe 3 days straight
twigs forever evolving and giving and us fresh new sounds is the gift that keeps on giving. what a banger of a mixtape that just proves she could do any genre and make it her own.
weird that you stopped linking the loved list this year but I’m glad you enjoyed the record as much as I did
I guess he hasn't made it yet lmao
I think he'll start linking them when there have been a few more albums added to the list.
such a fun mixtape where twigs experiments with different genres. i love that she’s finding herself and her passion for music again through the mixtape as well
to me its literally a 10, i cant quite explain how much i love this album, its flawless
I cant stop looking at this cover, idk why but it has some sort of energy to it.
it’s literally so funny that his least favorite off each album is the best one on there
The mixtape is risky and a little more mainstream but not generic, and very cohesive
FKA Twigs is one of the best performers alive.
god my heart kinda broke when you shat on "careless". It's my favourite and I really wanted to hear your thoughts on it, damn... I still think it's the best out of the album. The harmonies between twigs and daniel blend so so well and her vocals as "you can be careless" come off as so high it becomes almost like an etherial experience to me which is kind of what I expect when I listen to twigs so maybe that's why this is my fav
careless being the least fav says a LOT about the quality of this tape
Shits mid
Mid sadly
@@owen1686 Haha imagine being twigs and seeing your work being judged by someone who says “shits mid”
@@Zssprime literally I haven't a CLUE what you are trying to say. Your name is very funny tho
I liked Careless a bit, I personally disliked oh my love, Papi Bones and which way more. Daniel Caesar was my fav part of that song as I didn't enjoy Twigs at all honestly.
There were 4-5 songs that gripped me right off the bat (honda, ride the dragon and papi bones being the greatest of those), and some that were more "growers," like which way, meta angel and oh my love- which is the mark of an album i'll probably continue to enjoy for a long time. Listening to this late at night while drawing is a lovely experience, it's such a fun mixtape. the only petty thing i outright dislike is that vocal bit at the beginning of meta angel- the "saggi moon.. pisci veen(..)" line is becoming like nails on a chalkboard to me already
really??? that's my favourite part of meta angel AHHAHA
What do you mean??? That part is adorable. AND SHE SAYS CAPRI SUN. YOU DONT LIKE JUICE 🧃 BRO???
@@fionanguyen9952 I love ride the dragon but meta angel is definitely another one of my favorites as well as which way
For me this isn't anything less than a 9. Twigs is just such a trailblazer. This and Dawn FM will definitely hold me over as far as new music goes.
For me this shit is mid. Just my 2 cents howrver
Yeah it's weird to be this spoiled this early
People who think this and yawn fm are better than magdalene & after hours need serious mental help
@@RB-.- I don’t understand how people think Dawn FM isn’t better than After Hours
Nah, Dawn FM is better as it has a better abundance of great songs than After Hours and Abel's best storyline yet.
Compared to the other twigs albums this feels a lot more accessible and less weird. It reminds me of that one time David Lynch went out and made a more normal traditional movie because at that point in his career that was honestly the weirdest thing he could of done. I love this project it’s oozing with creativity and every track is like a different sub genre yet it still doesn’t feel disjointed to me. Been on repeat.
Gave the same score and thoroughly enjoyed this record. Quite nice to see the love!
Can we talk about the fact that it's composed and produced by El Guincho, who has been on most of Rosalia's projects? That's why it's so fun and such an innovative mix of genres. Everything he does is just fresh!
i’ve never listened to FKA twigs before and your review got me listening to the mixtape and omg i love it so much. it’s on repeat 🙏 that’s why i love watching your reviews so THANK YOU 💕
This had to be a favorite that introduced me more to twigs and I appreciate it all together
Love this project a lot and with more listens it is only getting better. Glad I can agree with you for once on the score and mostly agree on the review(although I do like Careless more than you).
Also, like how much Cal appears in your videos lately, give Cal more love, Anthony
God I love this album. Listened to it on repeat during a 5 hour flight and I’ve had it playing endlessly since
how tf did this get a higher score than Magdalene
This!!!
It got a higher score because the bold man liked it more
this mixtape is a masterpiece. no skips for me. tahlia really outdid herself this time. great review.
jealousy as a fav track. correct
THE GIRL IS BACK, FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!
AND SHE DROPPED ONE OF HER BEST PROJECTS EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
Gotta love this year and everyone dropping their best projects
to me this is the weakest of her main 4 but it’s still fantastic
@@mirroredheart7292 Agreed
each release is always one of her best projects because she never misses
You said it best at the start. She has said in her detailings of this project here on RUclips that she was allowing herself to be free and joyous as she usually can't brighten the sadness of her records. This renewed her interest in making music and pushed her to work with ppl as well as reflect through these inclusions of convos with her friends
Thanks Anthony, I will hear the rest about this tape from Twigs herself in the interview you have scheduled real soon.
Loved this project so much! It had some great genre bending, even moving into the drill genre a bit.
I find it amazing how she managed to bring her sound in such a fun and open direction without losing artistic edge and emotional potency.
It is true that it may not be as cohesive as some of her other work but to me, the chaotic nature of the project just adds to the overall impression that it is a living and breathing matter.
I feel like she's in a much better place and the music shows it. Best surprise of the year, so far!
While I generally think magadeline is a better album, this one is a lot funner to listen to.
funner
funner
more fun
caprisongs is a mixtape not a studio album like magdalene
@@frnnd-xp5qt literally just words, whether its a mixtape or an album has no actual meaning from the listeners perspective
Magdalene is one of my fave albums so I didn’t quite love caprisongs at first but it has grown on me! papi bones is such a banger, and the whole album is so fun it’s got me missing going out. it’s hard to compare the two albums and honestly best not to. Magdalene for the wintertime, caprisongs for shaking ass in the summertime
I could tell you enjoyed this before seeing the review because I could empathize with the yellow flannel, because I’m an empath
This mixtape has solidified that twigs is one of the greatest artists on the last 20 years
MAGDALENE wasn’t just loved by fans, it was also loved by critics. Pretty much everyone besides you 🥴
"everyone" is a strong word
@@shiningnightmare5616 Yeah it is
@@Mark.mp3 ummm...
Fair play to her for having fun; for partying out rather than looking in. This is not Magdalene. But that's okay - we STILL HAVE Magdalene.
careless is a top tier song how dare u 😩
literally my fav song from the album
Honestly man im surprised at the hate for it. That hook is so tender and loving
Really good review, you nailed it 👌🏾
Yes! I just did a video on this. I absolutely loved this project. Meta Angel and Thank You Song were exquisite! Glad this one got a good rating!
Good for you Anthony, finally switching out the vinyl behind you for the new year
Really good review fantano
Tinashe and twigs would make a GREAT dance-futurepop project.🤔🔥
THE YELLOW FLANNEL 😳😳😳😳
I have been in literal musical heaven with Dawn FM and then this dropping, both so so good
I've been playing it on repeat since it came out. Excellent mixtape.
I like how fantano just avoided pronouncing Pa Salieu altogether and went for “the feature” instead😂
Great album! FKA Twigs really revolutionized pop, 3/10
W
If this album was name Vegansongs Anthony would have give it a 10
SO DESERVED. obviously we are still very early on, but this is my aoty atm. genuinely such a good record.
I'm so happy she released an album, I thought we were going to have to wait forever😭😭
Meta Angel is a-fuckin-mazing
Absolutely agree. Caprisongs is my favourite Twigs-Release since LP1. At first I was a little suspicious about the amount of features, but every feature guest does their part and actually adds to the composition. Love it.
how can you like this & LP1 more than MAGDALENE
i love this mixtape so much.
Have listened to You refer to Pa Salieu as “the feature” in multiple videos Broski! Get the mans name in ya head he’s litt off! ⚔️🖤
I absolutely love this project! I'm a huge fka twigs fan for many years now and I've witnessed her transition in the music industry, her setting boundaries, gaining standards, and also coming out Of her shell more. Very fun mixtape!
I knew you’d like this project Anthony! I like it too
Awesome review Anthony this is the first project that I have heard by fka twigs and I see now why so many people talk about her but a 8 damn I thought it was about a 6 or 7 but to each there own
I’ve been waiting for soooo long 🎯
Can't wait for the cordae review
SUCH A BANGER
Loved this project. Good rating melon.
Thank you!
The more I listen to this mixtape, the more I enjoy it. Twigs really shows off her versatility on this project.
I really enjoyed this album. Shoutout to Pa Salieu for a sick feature, he's been getting better and better recently. Check out his African Rebel EP!! its lit
Pa salieu is fucking amazing send them to Coventry is crazy
@@wikingkjellson6857 he also has that dope single “Glidin” with Slowthai. I really have to thank Twigs for putting me on to Pa Salieu this year. Easily became a fan and he’s probably what made Honda my top song from the album
I just finished the album and I’m blown away had to come and hear your thoughts (glad to see the yellow flannel)
yet u gave magdalene a 7
Love this!
not sure if I wanna forgive u cuz u still gave magdalene a 7
I’m absolutely in love with the 2003 style Raggae Hiphop in Papi Bones. It feels so comforting to hear a sound I grew up with
Good seeing ya, Cal. We missed you.
damn, careless was one of my favorites, and I LOVE the whole album from start to finish
agreed on the score for this one but in no way is this thing better than MAGDALENE
First yellow flannel of the year for queen FKA. 🥰🥰🥰
Yes.
Oh My Love has gone #1 in my room since the mixtape dropped😭
such a great mixtape
For once, I loved many tracks in a first listen for this project. Usually it takes me some time to get into her work. Very much agree.
Sure!
YESSS!! I LOVE THIS PROJECT!!
she is the future of music and i love it
i’m glad Cal is making more appearances in 2022
I absolutely luvv this Mixtape so so muchh ! Omgshh it was amazing 💖
I had a feeling we'd be seeing the yellow flannel on this one :)
Are u f***king kidding me melon!!! Careless in the least favorite?
damn excited to finally here this
