Will u be making a part 2 exploring her work from LP1 to her new album? (which doesn’t have a release date but considering her recent singles it’s going to be her best album. The new era of FKA twigs begins) ;)
Urgh tell me it about weird obsessive Edward fans funny how people have this narrative of thinking Robert Pattinson is their boyfriend and get to control his dating life
They called her worse things than that..... it was TRULY evil. And racial. Never seen such hatred for someone SIMPLY dating another celebrity. Even till this day.
prodigies or not I think her experience is similar for a lot of "alt"-poc kids especially growing up in areas where we are one of few, if not the only, POC . I definitely relate and its so sad instead of being interested in learning about people some families teach children to ostracize others. Glad she had the opportunities to stand out and get where she is today :))
So true and also, even for me, growing up around other latinos and blacks BUT being bullied for speaking differently/listening to different kinds of music. My experience was so bad that I don’t think I even want to have children at all 🥺
I’m so obsessed with her !! To think she’s been shamed for her skin tone aggravates me because she’s so authentic to herself so beautiful and artistic!!! Even when she was with Robert Pattinson everyone was being so racist to her just because she wasn’t a white girl!! Shocks me how horrible and insecure some people are :(
@@_blank-_ Light skin is considered white-skinned in countries where the majority is black. For some they are white, for others they are light skinned. Thats why white "not caucasian". Twigs wouldnt be considered black in my country, even with her features. Here, for example, if you are mixed race, even though your skin may be medium tone like Zendaya if your hair is straight you are considered white, if your hair is curly you r straight seen as a black person. For an African person, chinese and japanese are considered white as well, dont even considered that yellow bullshit. Europeans invented that
wow, she's really a rennaissance woman. this just shows you, if you want to be good at something, just work really really hard at it. nothing happens by magic. what an admirable person
her and grimes being born the same year, bullied in school, and practicing ballet seems very twin-flamey. i always thought they were related somehow because their styles are so similar to me. i think so even more now.
Nah they both make experimental music but I find FKA twigs in a league of her own. I really connected with grimes but the last couple of years have been disappointing. We were rooting for her and she had us believing she was a radical anti racist, anti capitalist and anti imperialist, only to have her turn her back on it all
@@saya4301 I feel exactly the same way regarding Grimes and how much she seems to have sold out and turned her back on the entire person she claimed to be. FKA Twigs is so much more polished, talented and authentic
How can someone so gorgeous be bullied for her looks? It really shows bullies will just pick on ur for the sake of picking on u (& not deal with their own issues). Clearly she was gorgeous & it was intimidating for everyone else.
Saw her live in Dallas 2014, even then she was already a high quality performer and I was in a trance just watching her sing and dance, she truly is one of a kind!
Lol I remember I was at a bus stop and this man asked for gum I said I don’t have any and he said he has a gun and he’ll shoot me smh I literally just walked away
I really enjoy finding out the little details that lead up to their success story, it really is a lot about working hard and doing what you love no matter what and then being at the right place at the right time, meeting the right people, opportunity, it’s very inspiring :)
i saw someone post on instagram a few years ago talking about how twigs "gentrified" pole dancing. bruh she's so self made, was literally a fking prodigy. she sees pole as a true artistic dance form, and i think that's really valuable !! idk. she will always have my heart i love her so much
gentrified pole dancing is sooooooo dumb..it works on no angle. pole dancing is LITERALLY the occupation of the underdog WTF were they trying to say ...I am confusion lol....I need full context 🤔
@@bimbolecter9764 The issue with France where I currently live, is how they're willing to tell you race doesn't exist in the country, but they clearly and visibly make the difference between Whites and non-Whites.
ooh, that would be fun, also im guessing extremely long. Have a few more videos planned and then two longer ones around March, then I will look into it ;)
Last year, I got this experimental surgery that removes the top film of my eyeball and replaces it with an orange ultra-flex polymer that my friend and I made in the lab this past winter as a means to cure seasonal depression. It's really helped me to stay focused during these trying times and would definitely recommend. The surgery starts at $53,000
Just binge watched like all of your documentaries and the videos are of such quality that it baffels me how you don't have more subscribers. Thank you for the amazing content and keep up
2:52 my mom was the same always supportive and always made me feel beautiful. I didn't feel it because society branded you as ugly of you don't look a certain way. It's gotten a lot better but those thoughts creep in sometimes
Oh this was so gooood. I didn't know any of this. I only discovered her music quite recently, the first song i heard was Cellophane and it was the music video and it just really captured me. The dancing and the style and unique singing voice. Absolutely wonderful! Thanks for making this video :)
Great video! I love twigs artistry, and I vibe that she came from the same country part of uk as me and yet is very experimental and artistic. Interesting to see the full story, really shows how many factors come together. Like if there hadn’t been budget cuts maybe she would’ve pursued therapy more than her own performance. Interesting how racism is what spurred her to have such a strong work ethic and commitment to excellence, how something horrible can have a beautiful outcome. I remember seeing an interview where she talked about how encouraging her parents were of her unique creativity, I think it’s one of the greatest gifts you can give a child to support their creativity and not project shame/judgement onto them.
I grew up with a family that shamed me for everything, from being neurodivergent to an artist to a weird child to a homosexual that didn't blend in such a country such as "jordan" a trash country in the middle east, i get abused every day, every day I'm taken out of my peace to be reminded that I'm worthless, pathetic not like other good enough bc i don't act like my age, i don't flirt with guys, i don't work or study, so I'm always dragged around everywhere, i never feel like I'm my own person bc i always lived in people's shadows
what a great story, again, after watching your Grimes video. Two really special beings . I think that Bjork and Aurora will match your video maker style just as much. Thanks!
On November 17, 2014 Prince invited FKA Twigs to perform at Paisley Park. I had to the opportunity to go but I just worked at 12 hour shift and had to work another 12 hour shift the next day so I had to pass. Damn I regret not going and only about 100 people showed up. Damn!!!!!
I'm big fan of the 1975(her boyfriend is Matty Healy the lead singer of the band)and when I heard they're dating I try listening to her and instantly fell in love with her and her music
Hi! Thanks for the great doco, I learnt heaps. Just a wee suggestion for the next one - maybe pop the subtitles in smaller boxes down the bottom as the large white boxes dissappointingly obscured the footage. Thanks again!
I didn't know her at all. On Google, I saw that she and Madonna were friends, so I went immediately to UA-cam to learn more. Now I'm a fan. Thank you so much. Joy, Peace!!!
I was the only person with curly hair at my school for Awhile and it def made me self conscious that everyone had pin straight hair. Now as an adult it doesn’t matter at all lawl
@@POPICANA I didn't know that UK was so racist I just did a lil the research and found out that Megan Michael has helped but wtf🤢 how people treated and she lighter skin black women. But I glad black people being is more normalized in the uk but wow I would never thought.
That accent thing, yes. I have to say little old northern/midlands me didn't know people actually went by stupid stereotypes till I moved to London - I rememmber growing up thinking of stereotypes as a literary concepts from biased or over-simplified analogies in English. But nope if you'r not ethnically non-mixed European, and grew up outside of London get ready for the insults.
When did Croydon ( Surrey ) ...become ,' South ' ,..London . ... even Crystal PALACE, Selhurst , or Thornton Heath , would be a Stretch... good video I really enjoyed it .
I love all of your videos thank you so much! Love how queer and trans inclusive your storytelling is. I'd love to watch longer videos 💯🤍 also if you make videos of 10 minutes and longer, youtube will be able to place ads also in the middle which in turn means more support and growth to you 💗💗💗💗💗💗🎉💯🤍🤍😌🙏🏽
I am such a fan of her talent, idk about her, only a few of ther videos. And with that i could deduce that dancing/movements is like breathing to her, like art, especially dancing IS HER, whenever i watch a vid of her performances, it's just mesmorizing.
The video is only meant to cover how she became FKA Twigs from childhood to her breakthrough, that's why I didn't include anything post-LP1 ;)
I love these documentarys if you can can you do one on mr.kitty
Will u be making a part 2 exploring her work from LP1 to her new album? (which doesn’t have a release date but considering her recent singles it’s going to be her best album. The new era of FKA twigs begins) ;)
😂😂😂 everyone in the industry sold their soul
ill never forgive white twilight fans for calling her ugly
Urgh tell me it about weird obsessive Edward fans funny how people have this narrative of thinking Robert Pattinson is their boyfriend and get to control his dating life
I don't understand them, she's so beautiful
White? How do you know?
They called her worse things than that..... it was TRULY evil. And racial. Never seen such hatred for someone SIMPLY dating another celebrity. Even till this day.
@@dmitrievakate8320 FYI. To my recollection at least 80% of the people who attacked her when she dated Robert Pattinson were white & British.
She’s an ethereal beauty. Whenever I see her, I cannot take my eyes off of her
Yes she is, favors her mom quite a lot!
an absolute legend. a true visionary artist that crafted a sound and world of her own
I will count on seeing a comment from you on any and every twig video
And now she has herpes.
@@rydz656 what😭
"everyone does" omfg
She wasnt wrong though
I've never seen her parent's pics 😮 her mother literally gave birth to herself
Yes, she definitely has her mother's eyes....
hahahaha my same thoughts
they have the exact same eyes
She's highly underrated. Her music is beautiful.
Her music gives me terrible headache

Twigs and Sevdaliza, the newest Olympians

it wasn't much just looks
it was racism
@@lollabunyxxx i mean she looks mixed so
Looks are subjective📌just dum bullies nothing else

I mean, if some random stranger came up to me an said “I want to shoot you”, I’d be thinking something completely different.
Exactly i was like WTF
ikr that was so weird

Remember it's in UK, not US haha

ee would've thought racism in the UK was as tough as in the US, even tougher. They're silent but sharper than knives.
