Aside from the sheer talent heard in her ethereal voice over electronic-tinged R&amp;B (think How to Dress Well meets Aaliyah meets Massive Attack), Twigs threw herself into the visually stunning videos she made to accompany four out of the five songs from her Turks debut. Twigs, a ballet school dropout, captures the subdued narrative that threads through each of her songs and turns it into an experience all its own. Her video for \u201cWater Me\u201d found her googly eyed and teary as a distorted version of herself stares right into the camera mournfully singing, \u201cHe won\u2019t make love to me.\u201d Meanwhile, \u201cPapi Pacify\u201d is a black-and-white shot video that finds her submitting to a man\u2019s hands as he sticks his fingers in and out of her mouth. It\u2019s simultaneously seductive and unnerving and perfectly matches the dark yet soulful rhythm that nestles itself at the top of your spine. FKA Twigs will be dropping her first album, <em>LP1<\/em>, in August and we can\u2019t wait to hear (and see) more of her twisted take on R&amp;B.
