FKA Twigs is wearing a crown or headpiece similar to what Aaliyah wore in the movie ‘Queen of the Dammed.’ As the camera continues to slowly pan out there are smaller versions of FKA Twigs dancing around a larger version of her sitting in a chair.
You eventually see what is happening all around the lager version of FKA Twigs, which is reminiscent of Kanye West’s music video for “Power.” FKA Twigs and Kanye West are both in positions that have them at the center of the music video with people moving around them. A huge difference is that FKA Twigs is in every component of the music video from her center position to the last shot with her underwater.
