Named after the way her bones pop and crack; the part-Jamaican, part-Spanish singer now based in London, released a 4 track EP in December 2012, accompanied by their respective promo videos.
Her father is Jamaican, and her mother is an Englishwoman of partly Spanish descent who used to be a dancer and gymnast. Barnett was raised by her mother and stepfather. She did not meet her father, a jazz dancer, until she was 18. She grew up in Gloucestershire, and has described the county as "kind of in the middle of nowhere." She attended St Edward's School, Cheltenham, a private Catholic school. She came from a low-income family and her education at the school was paid for by an academic scholarship.
FKA Twigs's music has been described as "genre-bending", drawing on a variety of styles, including electronic music, R&B, trip hop, choral music, industrial, and avant-garde. Her work has been compared to the work of Tricky as well as Janet Jackson, The xx and Massive Attack, while Slate described her work as distinctive in a way that rises above her influences. The Wall Street Journal described her as "an heir to futuristic R&B muses like Aaliyah, Missy Elliott and others under the progressive sway of producer Timbaland." Describing her artistry, she said: "I am not restricted by any musical genre. I like to experiment with sounds, generating emotions while putting my voice on certain atmospheres [...] I found my own way of playing punk. I like industrial sounds and incorporating everyday life's sounds like a car alarm."
"How's that", produced and written with Arca, surfaced in May 2013. The single "Water Me", was released in August. Both tracks are extracted from her Young Turks debut release "EP2", out on September 17, 2013 alongside a promo video for "Papi Pacify"
Following some preview gigs in the US and Europe, it was announced Twigs' debut album, LP1, would be released in August 2014. A new film for "Hide" plus a re-work of "Ache","Tw-Ache", were premiered in June as part of Dazed Magazine Takeover. "Two Weeks" had its first airplay the following week. "Pendulum", co-written with Paul Epworth, was released as the lead single B-side in July 2014 and it had its video première in January 2015.
"glass & patron" appeared online as one of the YTMA videos in March 2015. It also features on the August released M3LL155X EP alongside "figure 8" and "in time". The EP was made with collaborators Boots, tic and Cy An. A 16 minute film for M3LL155X supported the release.
In September 2014 Twigs started dating British actor Robert Pattinson. They were rumored to be engaged, but never publicly confirmed it. The couple split in summer 2017.
In May 2018 Twigs revealed on Instagram that she underwent surgery to remove fibroid tumors from her uterus in December 2017. She described her experience as "living with a fruit bowl of pain every day" and saluted the bravery of other women living with the condition.

Sad Day
by FKA twigs
Every time you look outside your window
Everything is just the same as before
You are turning round and round
You see, it's a sad day for sure
Taste the fruit of me
Make love to all you see
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Take a chance on all the things you can't see
Make a wish on all that lives within thee
If you're foolishly in love with me
It's a fine day for sure
Taste the fruit of me
Make love to all you see
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
You're running
And I tried to make it work before
You're running
I made you sad before
I, then I
Have you ever made a wish before
I, you're running
I made you sad before
I can imagine a world when my arms are embraced around you
I lie naked and pure
With intentions to clench you and take you
The city howls with a cry to seduce you
And claim you
So it's time
And it's a sad day for sure
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
Ah ah ah ah
Would you make a, make a, make a wish on my love?
You're running
And I tried
I made you sad before
And you're running
Have you ever made a wish before
