I think that fka is one of the most innovative artist of our generation. She is like Bjork of our times. Love her, the whole Magdalene album is a masterpiece. If you want more, I think you can go with Home With You or Sad Day, both amazing tracks.
What this song and video metaphorically mean 👇🏽 This song and basically the entire album Magdalene was surrounded around love, heartbreak, release and finding yourself back in regards to the highly publicized relationship she had with Robert Pattinson. The entire video is metaphorical and adopts imagery to tell a story of what led to the downfall of their love. When the two dated, the internet mocked her for the longest implying she wasnt good enough for him. Fka twigs is very creative but quirky in general and it's evident in her aesthetics and creative work. She comes out onto a stage to dance wearing a traditionally sexy/beautiful outfit, perfect curls, and makeup (unusual for Twigs who is usually dressed very much in her own unconventional style). That's because in a way, Twigs is giving the public the image exactly what they wanted from her this entire time: a perfect, feminine beauty that is there to give and entertain, just like the song's lyrics (they want to see us). The relationship was highly publicized and scrutinized, and she's essentially putting on a show for everyone because that's what the media, papparazzi, online expected her to be. hence the pole dancing as a metaphor for putting on a provocative, alluring show for the public eye. Then, as the pole begins to warp, she tries harder and harder to keep up with it... I think the robot that comes up is her true self, odd, offbeat, and not so 'perfect'. When she stomps into it to get rid of it, she loses balance and falls downwards. There you can see an arm trying to hold her (presumably her ex-lover) but she keeps falling and falling until she lands into a pit of mud. The word cellophane implies a packaged good, like sweets or chocolate, meant to be consumed. Celebrity relationships are a lot like that too - the line between personal and public is so distorted and their actual private life becomes a commodity to be consumed. I think that the pit of mud and the women crawling towards her are wearing masks to represent the vile anonymous online hate Twigs received. Finally, they managed to pull her down to their level, reducing her to the color of her skin aka the brown clay (her being a woman of color was a big reason behind the majority of her online abuse) Note their eye makeup is green too, like the color of envy. I love that she uses the masks to symbolize the deceitful nature of anonymity over the Internet... I feel like Twigs tried really really hard in her relationship despite all the eyes that were on her, but in the end she just could not become the puppet that the public eye wanted her to be for them. Eventually, this tore apart at her relationship and she had to let go and chose herself over her partner
this song was essentially about the end of her relationship with Robert Patterson. It was her final cry out to her partner and asking them why everything she does is never enough. Unfortunately, she received a lot of racism from die hard twilight fans due to her public relationship with Robert Patterson. I believe i read somewhere that when she was recording this song, she was in a massive rush and basically did it in mostly one take, that's why the vocals seem so raw. But I think it fits the song beautifully as you feel the pain in her voice. Hearing this song live was definitely an amazing experience as she always found it very hard to perform as it made her emotional. I think you would maybe enjoy a lot of the songs from Capri Songs. A lot more upbeat. Check out: Ride the dragon, tears in the club (feat. The Weeknd), papi bones feat Shygirl and Jealousy. Great reaction :)
Best songs to get into her sound: Home with you Sad Day Holy Terrain Two weeks Video girl Closer Lights on Tears in the club Jealousy Thank you song Darjeeling And lastly, Meta Angel and Oh my love Additional song Honda Hope to see more reactions!
I was so obsessed with her in high school. Love how her songs and her videos are so artistic and have depth. She dropped this after a hard time she was having in life (separating from robert pattinson and her crazy situation with Shia lebouf) so her dropping this was so sad. Much respect to her for still doing music and picking up on Acting.
Tears In The Club is her most mainstream song. Some of her earlier work is Papi Pacify or Two Weeks. Pendulum (older son) also has an interesting video.
i love how much you appreciate her creativity & skill 😭❤️ sad day is a more mainstream cut from this album that got a music video thats sooo sick, may be worth checking out!
For more mainstream songs you should check out Holy Terrain, and Tears in the Club and Killer. Other amazing songs from LP1: Two Weeks, Pendulum and Video Girl. The best from M3LL155X: Glass & Patron and Figure 8. And honestly the entire album of MAGDALENE is incredible
If you want more experimental stuff from her, I would recommend songs like sad day, pendulum, home with you or two weeks ! If you want to discover her more "mainstream" side, you can check out tears in the club or holy terrain (I personally don't really like Holy Terrain but it's just my opinion.)
i recommend everything by FKA Twigs, aside from Caprisongs. Caprisongs is very commercial sounding and not terribly interesting. Two Weeks and Video Girl, and Home with You are some of my favorite songs by FKA Twigs. Two Weeks is probably the song with the highest potential for replay value. The production is fantastic.
The cellophane is also a metaphor for the plastic like packaging of her dating life and her career at the time. With a high profile partner it probably felt like her life was see through and everyone was looking at her with deeming eyes. Especially with the racist undertones a lot of the hate she received from her partner’s fans and the public.
NEW SONG “HOW I’VE BEEN”👇
Sean Staxx - How I’ve Been (LYRIC VIDEO)
ruclips.net/video/PuleCS4i2CY/видео.htmlsi=NYF3TF_4goLNh7Q8

You should do Tears In The Club next, it’s way more mainstream
Yes!!

I think that fka is one of the most innovative artist of our generation. She is like Bjork of our times. Love her, the whole Magdalene album is a masterpiece. If you want more, I think you can go with Home With You or Sad Day, both amazing tracks.
Love those tracks but don’t forget Holy Terrain especially because it features Future it’s a more likely listen for Sean
LP1>
She genuinely might be the most multi-talented person on earth

Brilliant breakdown
Woah makes a lot of sense 😮

The cellophane is also a metaphor for the plastic like packaging of her dating life and her career at the time.

You’d probably like more of her older work from LP1.
