Party Favor

which is a shame tbh. i also feel like artists nowadays just don't give af about cultivating a dedicated fanbase. there's a few exceptions, of course, but most do not put in the work when they're up and coming and rely entirely on going 'viral' via tiktok/huge streaming numbers

coconut and key lime pie

spill the tea

i had an account on there and it was dead even in it's heyday. there's very few artists who are able to cultivate a fanbase dedicated enough to have an online forum (an already dying medium). Lana and Gaga are among the few exceptions imo

for sure. I think there's bound to be little plot holes in an album that's telling a story, especially bc there's only so much you can tell in songs before it becomes a slog lol. I know she's also stated that ethel isn't exactly a good point of reference when recalling the events as well? regardless, it'll be interesting to see if the story is expanded on in the book she's working on (is that even still a thing? eihrgoeir)

im not the greatest at the lore, but she's drugged in ptolemaea and i believe it's when he captures her. august underground is when she dies. I heard she 'dies' like right at the end with that one particular note, but i have no idea if that's what ethel has stated or not. i feel like it's his cabin in the woods?? i think it's safe to assume that thoroughfare is just ethel recalling her time traveling to california with him. it's not to be a linear transition from TF - GG. TF is a song about a memory, gibson girl is now back in the present. That's how I look at it anyways

the way there are 20 variations of that album

happy birthday to lana's best album. from aesthetics, to outtakes, and original concepts, everything about this album was meant to be iconic.

oh it's giving flux's mature older sister

we keep talking about barrie songs and how many they apparently recorded yet none have leaked, DONT piss me off

did somebody say elvis (2013)

we aint getting shit this year

and she also said she has no plans to put an album out and is focusing on her band with her boyfriend

not her saying she has no intention of releasing an album anytime soon

the second half of the album is fantastic. the first part though

chappelle roan or whatever's music is not good. didn't think it was when they first came out on the scene and still do not

why does she never show up on theme

oh, so stans are still shitting their pants over her lukewarm shade from 10 years ago

gaga needs go and eat everyone up again, tired of lame bitches being invited to a costume party and showing up in a zara equivalent dress

why does charli have beef with lorde, what she do

it's called the unpopular opinion thread for a reason ya'll

omg her new single emoji smiling face and grey block with double arrows

i am not calling peace 'all you need'

there really isn't a lot of similarities between ethel and lana, a lot of lana stans have deluded themselves into thinking any woman who sings about tortured shit is drawing inspo from her. Lorde and Ethel are a great example of artists who get dragged for copying lana when the reality is that they all fall in an umbrella genre. The gag is that the artists that should be discussed for very clearly trying to emulate lana's sound are not being talked about. And i'm gonna tell ya'll right now that these artists are not the ones pulling numbers, cultivating a fanbase, or cracking the top 3000
