FKA twigโ€™s โ€˜MAGDALENEโ€™ had me bewitched from the very first listen. The album is feminine, with a mesmerising mix of spiritual energy, vulnerability and tragedy. MAGDALENE is not only a break-up album but an exploration of her emotions regarding her health, as she had six fibroid tumours removed from her uterus. As a result, her โ€œconfidence as a woman was knockedโ€. As you can imagine, each song is filled with soulโ€ฆย 

The most famous track โ€˜cellophaneโ€™ was the first song by the artist in 3 years. The lyrics share a vulnerable recollection of her relationship with Robert Patterson. While a couple, twigs received hoards of vile racist abuse online from Patterson fans, โ€œthey want to see us, want to see us aloneโ€ / โ€œthey want to see us, want to see us apart.โ€ The singerโ€™s ex-partner did not defend her, hence the haunting line โ€œwhy won’t you do it for me?โ€ / โ€œwhen all I do is for you?โ€
