FKA twigs has once again proved her status as a visionary with the release of her newest album, “EUSEXUA.” Made complete with unique and provocative visuals, a focused concept, and of course, beautiful music, the record reaches the perfect balance of meticulous execution and raw emotion. 

On her new EP, “Perverts,” artist Ethel Cain leaves behind the cannibalized character from her debut album and ventures into themes of eroticism and pleasure with a new, darker sound. 

Eliza McLamb’s bio on her social accounts is the phrase “renaissance woman,” and it’s a very fitting descriptor for an artist who does as much as she does. The singer-songwriter released her debut album “Going Through It” in January of 2024 and co-hosts the podcast “Binchtopia.” She also publishes short essays on Substack, an online platform for creators to publish newsletters and gain subscribers, with both free and paid content. A few hours before her Oct. 25 show in St. Louis, McLamb sat down with Student Life and detailed the process of creating her first album.

We can admire artists from afar and definitely love their music, but we must recognize our place as fans and not friends. Artists do not owe fans anything, not even their art.
