WATCH: FKA twigs dazzles at the MOBOs
No wonder Mark Ronson is such a massive fan!
Raved over in our new issue by the Metropolis-bound Mark Ronson - “It’s impressive to see someone on their first album who has that kind of vision” - FKA Twigs stole the show at last night’s MOBO Awards in Leeds with this stunning mash up of ‘Figure 8’ and ‘In Time’.
Kate Bush aside, we can’t think of anyone operating at the moment who gives as much bang for buck on stage.
While Best Female Act criminally alluded her, Ms. Barnett went home with a Best Video gong for ‘Pendulum’.
"I don't think anyone has any idea about how much I put into what I do from storyboards to working with my stylists, to writing the songs and to being involved in the production,” she said afterwards.
Sadly, David Little was pipped to Best Jazz Act by Binker & Moses.
