FKA Twigs Teases ‘Eusexua' Deluxe Version With New Single ‘Perfectly'
FKA Twigs kicked off the year with, in her words, a 'booming thud of culture' with the release of her third studio album Eusexua. The 'Childlike Things' singer kicked off her Eusexua Tour in the spring, and in June, she teased the release of a deluxe version of the album with a listening event with fans.
It appears that Twigs is preparing for the next chapter of the Eusexua era with the release of the new single 'Perfectly.' 'And so the offerings begin again,' she wrote in an Instagram post seemingly inaugurating the rollout. 'If 'Eusexua' was the tip of the tongue, 'Perfectly' is the esophagus,' she said. 'I wonder what lays in the belly of the beast.'
An upbeat club track complemented by Twigs' ethereal vocals, 'Perfectly' embodies the best of what Eusexua has to offer and shows that the shelf life of the album is nowhere near over yet.
"Another day, leave it all to another day / Leave it all to another day, another me / And when I'm done, they'll say I did it perfectly," she sings on the track. 'A sky of blue, a sea of green / A messy room, fits perfеctly / Inside my head I have thе best time / Yes, in my head, I have the best time.'
Twigs previously explained on social media what Eusexua means to her, not just as a project of alt-dance music but as part of her artistic identity.
'Eusexua has been my practice for the years that it has been in creation. It is my opus and truly feels like a pin at the center of the core of my artist,' she said. 'Eusexua was birthed in chicken scratch, written on the back of my hand in a toilet at a rave in Prague: 'This room of fools, we make something together' and we do. We rave, we sweat, we kiss, we make love to the booming thud of culture.'
The Eusexua Tour wraps up Aug. 9 in Budapest.

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce Couldn't Keep Eye Contact on Their First Date After What She Asked
Anyone new to football might not know the technicalities behind it, and Taylor Swift was no exception. Appearing on the 'New Heights' podcast and announcing her 12th studio album, 'The Life of a Showgirl,' Swift surprised her fans.

During a candid discussion, the singer recalled the beginning stages of their romance. She openly admitted she was unfamiliar with the fundamentals of football. 'Jason, on our first date, I legitimately asked him what it was like when the Chiefs played the Eagles in the Super Bowl,' she confessed. Swift recalled asking how Travis felt when 'he looked across the field, across the line of scrimmage and saw his brother standing on the other, like, 5 feet in front of the field.' Travis found himself at a loss for words and apparently couldn't bring himself to make eye contact. Swift joked about the moment on the podcast: 'Now I know what an insane question that was. He was like, 'Actually, I'm on the offense and my brother's on the offense and I'm only on the field at the same time as the defense.'' The 'Shake It Off' hitmaker confessed her understanding of football was limited at the time. Travis laughed about her misunderstanding, highlighting her honesty and willingness to admit what she didn't know. Swift described how Travis handled the awkward question with kindness and humor, quickly easing her embarrassment.

The NFL star commended her curiosity, thanking his girlfriend for 'diving into the football world wholeheartedly.' Swift admitted she 'fell in love with it' and became 'obsessed' with it. The story from the couple's first date became a part of their shared journey, eventually bringing them closer together. Originally reported by Ishika Mishra on Reality Tea.
