It seems like this probably happens a lot, so no, this isn’t FKA Twigs. (It’s sort of shocking how she’s really taken over this acronym. It probably wasn’t intentional, but she’s turned a form into content for better or for worse). “FKA Anthem” is a little Night Slugs-style club, a little deep house, a little grime, and according to FKA Deji, probably the last track he’ll make as FKA Deji. Ending a project with an anthem seems renegade, since we associate anthems as being something that is the start, or at least something that repeats, but it actually makes sense to end with one. The track collages many different elements that exist in FKA Deji’s past work, but it seems complete rather than fragmented. I love how the “FKA” vocal is both part of the song and a name drop. It seems like the perfect way to end a DJ project. But don’t think this is the end of FKA Deji! (He included the word “probably”…) The track isn’t even released yet, but will be out soon via Pineal Sounds.
