Breaking my silence simply to say, all you 16 year olds will never understand the impact of Lana’s artistry in early 2010s, before you were even in grade school. The only “problematic” thing about the Ride video and Lana’s early career in general is the headdress thing, but everything else, she was a nearly 30 year old woman perfectly capable of making her own decisions and she had a very strong vision for her art, which everyone absolutely ate up at the time. Obviously Lana still has insane impact, but it was different and a different kind of it 10+ years ago. She was just putting her truth into her music and visuals, while obviously slightly embellishing things in the name of creating an immersive world, just because something from over a decade ago makes you uncomfortable, that doesn’t mean any of your criticism of it is valid. Lana Del Rey wouldn’t be Lana Del Rey without the artist she was back then, and you sound exactly like what the gross journalists sounded like back then. The boomerfication of Gen Z and weird rise in purity culture is so real, no high school aged people should be speaking on how Lana approached her career before they could count to 100 unless they’ve made a conscious effort to understand her. If “grotesque” art from grown ass women bothers you then i don’t think Lana is the artist for you

100% agreed. I am so excited for this album - Lana's brilliance is shining through.

oh 

She'll never tour in the prairie provinces but I'm prepared to quit my job to see her live once 

now this makes me wonder if i should buy some merch, i didnt because im saving money... i am subscribed to emails which is good. thank you so much for the information

do you guys think it’s going to be really hard to get tickets because of the locals 
also someone should make a forum of concert advice for people who don’t go to concerts often or ever. i’ve only ever been to 2 concerts and have no idea how to get tickets and how to be a good concert goer i guess idk

OMG I found the tour dates:
 
6/16/23 Oklahoma City, OK
6/19/23 Edmond, OK
6/21/23 Tulsa, OK
6/24/23 Norman, OK
6/26/23 Lawton, OK
6/29/23 Woodward, OK
7/5/23 Guthrie, OK
7/7/23 Stillwater, OK
7/10/23 Enid, OK

I don’t think she’ll ever meet the standard of BTD, UV and HM again

somebody famous doesn't 100% fit the woke/progressive viewpoint and they absolutely tear her apart  we live in a world where people don't think for themselves... however lana thinks for herself & questions today's society... they ripped her apart because of it  people should be more understanding & compassionate, and looking back... i don't even understand why people thought qftc was that bad... we ALL know she was just expressing her desire to be authentic like everybody else, without being unfairly criticized 

We're all obese at this point

Dealer is in it, I can feel it coming 

JUNE 1? Will we go into another delay? Or did she plan this release? OMGGG!!

June 1st is a tuesday
 
 

I’m feeling this for Autumn 2022 

Can’t wait for Candle In The Wind...

 
so the second album will be the covers one ?

I think if it gets known that he's coming back, everything will go crazy here.

produced by Rick. Period. taste

Her new album Running with the wolves.

 
Tracklist
 
1)Dealer
2)Roses bloom for you
3) Running with the Wolves (a song in the style of queen of hearts)
4)Lonely Bay(a mixture of noir and dark but just a game)
5) Everything is about you(sounds like the witch house version of HBTB by Blvck Ceiling)
6)Pink Cadillac(sister track of Hawaiian Tropic)
7)Moonstruck Boy (continuation of cocc, sounds like the outro of cocc, but a bit darker than cocc)
8)Lucid Dreams ( a sad sexy song like TJF, Cherry with lots of trap beats and autotune)
9)Jeremiah´s Eyes (a dreamy song like heroin, but in the chorus it becomes dramatic and intense,)
10) Gold Digger ( soft grunge hymn, which further develops the sound of money power glory)
11) American Flamingo (  seductive trap pop with chilled hip hop beats like born to die and great melodies like honeymoon)
12)Valley of the kings (A ballad with strings in the style of Yosemite. A worthy conclusion.)
 
 
 
 

I predicted Yosemite in the first pages of the COCC pre-release thread and it came true. I predict Dealer for LDR8.
 
Bookmark my words gurls 

Chuckl is gunna be mom and that means I won’t see any of her touches in the next album cuz she’s gunna be too busy  but wait how can we get charlie pregnant too 

I don't like that she's putting her friends and family in every single visual thing ever now. 
They were on the NFR covers, in the 3-part mv, in the TG/FIILY mv (which was mostly her strutting about down at the docks, but still), in the LMLYLAW and Summertime mvs, and they're all going to be in the COCC mv. 
Of course it's fine to do that occasionally, but does it have to be everything?
It reminds me of how you let your 5-year-old cousin help you with something - you know it's not gonna be perfect because they're 5 but you love them so you let them "help" anyway. I can only hope that COCC, the song, isn't too infused with them.
I suppose it bothers me because visual imagery and escape used to be one of the strengths of her art, and it's disappointing that that's gone. You could argue that it's much more personal and therefore better now, but SoC was her best mv ever and used professional actors. It's unlikely that you can get that same standard with Chunk and the Cha Cha Matchas. Furthermore, it's not as if she's using them to portray personal storylines (which would be more acceptable); she's just using them in place of professional actors. It's similar to how she uses Chunk to take all her photos, although at least Chunk is a photographer. Val and Alex, for example, are not actresses.
