CAPRISONGS

Caprisongs is seen as a departure from Twigs' previous work and a shift towards less experimental and more mainstream sound. It is described as a pop and "unbridled" avant-pop music. Its lyrics are influenced by R&B and hip hop, while its beats are influenced by trap, drum'n'bass, and dancehall. "Darjeeling" features "a skittering harp" which "becomes the basis for a banging grime beat". "Jealousy" contains elements of Afrobeats. The album features spoken word interludes from Twigs' friends and collaborators, and one featuring a fan ask about her unreleased Dua Lipa duet, "Why Don't You Love Me?"

The lead single of the mixtape, "Tears in the Club", which features Canadian singer-songwriter the Weeknd, was released with a music video on 16 December 2021. The sole promotional single, "Jealousy", which features Nigerian singer Rema, was released only one day prior to the release of the project. Coinciding with the release of the mixtape, Twigs released a music video for "Ride the Dragon", which was a guerrilla dance video shot in Hackney, London. A number of other 'Caprivids' were released after this in the same style.
