ICY R’N'B

Friday, December 21, 2012

Twigs has also joined the ‘New-R’n’B-Wave’. Her contribution: Simple, quiet not out of submission but seduction. It’s enthralling! The recently released set of videos, partly directed by Grace Ladoja, are definitely worth watching! One of the musical highlights in 2012.
