FKA, whose real name is Tahliah Debrett Barnett, shared her candid insights into the album's origins and what the word means to her, ahead of it being released on January 24. Along with the coining of the term EUSEXUA, FKA twigs has created THE ELEVEN: eleven pillars of movement, designed to be a form of self-healing, every one being informed by her lifelong study of movement as a dancer.

Describing the album, the singer said: 'EUSEXUA is really this mixture of slightly psychadelic, childlike, playful exploration of what it is to be human. But then mixed with that, this raw, dirty, hard, sexual grit as an undertone. 'I created these 11 pillars and made up these words for them. I started to, adjacent to the album, make up these words like croning, which is an addiction to technology.

'The 11 pillars were aspects of my life that I felt if I looked at and made adjustments to then I could be closer to EUSEXUA.'. She continued: 'For me, EUSEXUA is creating purely and unabashedly, it’s feeling more comfortable in my body sexually, it’s being more present and being able to be at that pinnacle of human experience as much as I possibly can.
