FKA twigs has marked the close of her Body High Tour by releasing a new single, “On Your Mind,” a pulsing electro collaboration with Lil Yachty. The track arrives as her first solo release since last year’s reworked edition of Eusexua, and it arrives with a personal backstory that underlines why the moment matters beyond the music.
The new song leans into kinetic electronic production and a taut pop sensibility, pairing twigs’ distinctive vocal textures with Lil Yachty’s guest turn. Industry watchers are taking note because this is the artist’s first standalone material following the reimagined 2025 album, and it was timed to coincide with the end of a major arena run across the US and Europe.
In an Instagram post explaining the song’s origin, twigs said she wrote it after learning members of her touring team could not travel to last year’s Coachella, a development that ultimately forced her to cancel that headline performance. She described long, intense studio sessions that transformed disappointment into the driving energy of the record—an instance of turning a logistical and emotional setback into creative momentum.
She framed the release as a celebration after completing her first full arena tour, thanking fans for attending shows and for their part in what she called the next phase of her work. The artist portrayed the single as both a personal statement and a communal milestone, released at a point when touring and new projects are reshaping her public profile.
- On Your Mind — a high-energy electro single featuring Lil Yachty; marks twigs’ return to solo releases.
- Body High Tour — completed first arena dates across the US and EU; this single is released in the tour’s wake.
- Eusexua Afterglow — last year’s reimagined version of her record; set expectations for experimental pop textures.
- Film and acting projects — contributed music to the Anne Hathaway-led film “Mother Mary” and was announced to portray Josephine Baker in an upcoming biopic.
- Legal action — initiated a trademark suit against another act using the name Twigs, signaling a protective stance over her brand.
Taken together, these moves suggest a deliberate expansion of twigs’ career: she’s not only releasing music but also composing for film, stepping into acting, and defending her commercial identity. For fans and industry observers, the single is a barometer of how she’s channeling live-show experience and cross-media work into new material.
Expect the new song to feature in future live sets and to shape the narrative around what twigs does next—whether that’s more studio releases, film score work, or film roles that further blur the lines between music and cinema.
For readers tracking contemporary pop and performance art, this release is timely: it reflects how touring disruptions and creative pivots can produce new artistic directions, while also highlighting the practical challenges artists face when international logistics and legal disputes intersect with high-profile careers.
