FKA Twigs: M3LL155X Vinyl LP

The mighty return of FKA Twigs! Taliah Barnett (FKA Twigs) follows up her critically acclaimed debut LP1 with a5 trackEPtitledM3LL155X (pronounced “Melissa”). This time around, the multi-talented UKmusician/dancer enlists the help of BOOTS on production (who you might recognize from his work with Beyonce and Run The Jewels) who picks up perfectly where Arca left off. BOOTS crafts spacious, abstract and deconstructed rhythms that match FKA Twigs’ one-of-a-kindvocals perfectly. The result is another future-proofpiece of R&B that warrants repeat listens. Recommended.
