era's are meant to end, they are chapters in the book
the story has developed and honeymoon is lyrically and thematically the better of the series

Hundred Dollar Bill liked a post in a topic by Say Yes to Heaven in CupcakKe
Elizabeth Eden Harris (born May 31, 1997), known professionally as CupcakKe, stylised as cupcakKe, is an American rapper, singer and songwriter. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, cupcakKe earned public attention after releasing her mixtape Cum Cake on February 8, 2016 and releasing her sophomore mixtape Shelters to Deltas, stylised as S.T.D. on June 19, 2016. She is not signed to a label yet.
She started rapping at 14, mostly at church and very 'clean', she told Paper Magazine. She has had her YouTube account since 2012, where she uploads her music to, but after releasing her single "Vagina" in late 2015, she began to garner attention from a wider audience. After the next singles "Deepthroat" and "Juicy Coochie", she released her first mixtape on February 8, 2016, Cum Cake.
After Cum Cake, she released her sophomore album S.T.D. Along with the single "Best Dick Sucker" the album retained a classic cupcakKe sound with sexual titles, lyrics, and visuals.
She released another full-length album on 10/14 titled Audacious, returning once more to the promiscuous and sultry style which earned her most of her fame but also including less sexual songs such as "Cotton Picker", "Lgbt" and "Ace Hardware".

I think people were just kinda culture shocked by TYLS bc of how different it is from DC in terms of production. I always say TYLS is the 2015 version of Devotion -

It isn't much but it made me happy to see this. I was doing some sleuthing and found an old music blog, where he lists her performances in December 2008. Sadly no videos!
Lizzy Grant New Yawk Performances
Jazzy Jersey girl Lizzy Grant will be performing a few shows in New Yawk and New Joisey this December.
Dec 2 2008 |The National Underground | NY
Dec 5 2008 | Jersey City Kevin Spyker + Railroad Studio | NJ
Dec 16 2008 | The Living Room | NY
Dec 18 2008 | NY SIRENS | NY
And a fun little bonus: I found an old Lizzy Grant profile on eventful.com, which is a concert site where you can request the artist to tour in your area!
Here's the bio I found for her
" MORE INFO ABOUT Lizzy Grant BioLizzy Grant is one of the most unusual and interesting young artists emerging from the NYC scene. Disregarding genre, she mixes elements of pop and avant-garde, complex jazz chords with unexpected electronic flourishes, and narcotic blues with chilling lyrics that sharply contrast with the warm sound of her voice.
Even a casual listener to her new EP Kill Kill immediately hears a formidable musical talent with an exquisite, captivating voice. The attentive listener notices much more. Kill Kill opens up a world that feels simultaneously dark but still hopeful, musically polished without losing the simple beauty and elegance of a well-written melody. Lizzy Grant captures a musical vibe that will appeal to fans of Cat Power, Amy Winehouse or Antony and the Johnsons, with colorings and shadings of Billie Holliday and Nina Simone mixed in. She adores Nirvana, The Beach Boys and Elvis Presley and cites them as major influences.
A recent resident of a New Jersey trailer park and long time lover of the great city of New York, Grant says about her new EP, “Coney Island and America are the touchstones of these songs. I feel at home in Coney Island. I used to go there every day.” The collaboration between producer David Kahne (Paul McCartney, Regina Spektor, Sublime, Fishbone) and Grant succeeded in recreating the carnival organs and arcade sounds reminiscent of the musical experience of Coney Island while still referencing the dark underside that has always fascinated its visitors.
Before settling in New York, Lizzy Grant’s nomadic tendencies had her moving about from state to state and town to town, all the while listening, singing and developing her musical chops. She eventually landed in NYC, and, armed with her considerable talent and eclectic taste, began playing clubs around the city. This is usually a recipe for obscurity, but instead of disappearing into the throngs of pretty faces with pretty voices, she showed up with her guitar and blew the judges away at a songwriting contest, got invited onto some impressive shows with notable headliners The Blow, Mirah and Moby, posted some homemade music videos online and before long, had assembled a following that included everyone from teens on MySpace to major music industry heavyweights.
Lizzy Grant’s emergence from small town USA onto the stages of New York City and the ipods of the music industry may seem like a young girl’s fairy tale, but while you’re being dazzled by that pretty smile and glittering blond hair, remember - it’s her intricate songs and incredible voice that got her where she is now, ready for takeoff.
Lizzy Grant’s debut EP, entitled Kill Kill, is on iTunes now.

I agree! Ever since finding out from @@Eclipse that two of my favorite Lana tracks, Trash Magic and Pin Up Galore, were produced by Steven, I've been dying to hear what production he gave to AKA, as it's my favorite album! It'll be a match made in heaven
And, I don't believe there would be a version of Smarty-- I'm pretty sure that was one of the two tracks, along with Gramma, that Lana and David wrote in-studio.

While Lana Del Ray (commonly known as AKA) wasn’t Lana’s first studio album -- that honor goes to Sirens -- it was her debut on a record label, and her first album to be sold commercially. AKA’s history was turbulent, which probably owes to much of the mystery and misinformation that surrounds the album today:
As noted above, the formation of AKA brought about many demos and outtakes that didn’t make the final cut, including Lizzy’s collaborations with producer Steven Mertens. Below is a helpful guide to the AKA demos, along with information on unused tracks recorded with both Mertens and David Kahne:
Lana’s promotion of her music during the AKA era included interviews, frequent live performances, and perhaps most distinctively, the creation of self-assembled music videos for most of the tracks on the album, much like the “Video Games” visuals that would propel her to stardom in 2011. Below are a selection of these videos, plus relevant fan creations:
Lastly, here are some helpful links for further info and exploration of AKA:
