FKA Twigs really understands the power of visual. For her video for her LP1 track ‘Two Weeks’, Tahliah Barnett keeps the hypnotic flavour to the video by allowing a slow pan to reveal something subtle but powerful.
Twigs sits on a throne in an Egyptian-style temple, looking bronzed, exotic and elegant, singing the words which obfuscate explicitness through her hushed singing and style. There are no others in her category.
The video is by Nabil.
LP1 is out on Young Turks on August 8th.

- Preface
