It's been a long time coming for fans of FKA twigs to hear new music from her. Well not only has she returned with a new single but there is a stunning video to go along with it. 'Cellophane' is the name of the track and it's more of a ballad with director Andrew Thomas Huang pushing the visuals to far reaching heights. The video features FKA twigs performing a beautiful routine on the pole before rising into a portal from above. There is even a dragon that flies around prior to twigs putting her four inch heel shoe into it's mouth, causing it to break apart with the artist falling from the sky. This is definitely one of the more stunning vids that have landed this month. If we're lucky, an album will be coming sooner than later. Have a look.
