"There are some albums that take you to a completely different place when you listen to them, and Magdalene is one of them. FKA Twigs's delicate vocals start the album on a high note with 'Thousand Eyes,' then proceed to take us on a journey through self-love and embracing the beauties of femininity. The LP — which takes inspiration from biblical character Mary Magdalene — is heavily influenced by Twigs's surgery, through which six fibroid tumors in her uterus had to be removed. 'Humans have incredible — but also frail and confusing — bodies,' she told Rolling Stone. 'It was my time to experience that [pain]. I just embraced it and was gentle with myself.'" — Brea Cubit, celebrity and entertainment assistant editor
