  1. I just saw the back covers (?) and I'm tempted to get them all but I have no idea what the music's even gonna really be like. when's the tracklist gonna be listed?
  2. also, whenever u level up so on. it's just goals and inspiration as to how subtle her fashion is, yet it's still undeniably hers. the dress from mall for example. we love a style queen. aw yeah lemme just wear a sweater, oh it's 24 hundred? yeah nbd. fuckinG style icon
  3. I like the title, it's cute. and! w her immense talent and control she could definitely pull it off
  4. promo. there's bound to be a lot of promo. hence the long period. rollout.
  5. what I'm thinking about more is why she's announced it so early post grammy show fanfare. 4 years to compile and form. let's face it, experimenting the feel with country, explains more so Nikki Lane I know she'll come up w something excellent despite my personal opinion on country (even if we can rely on her descriptions from past sounds/albums). I wonder how much of it'll be an experimental album, fun album or how much of a combination btwn both.
  6. knowing her, part of it's probably out of spite ngl. but also, thematically, people also forget how amazingly satirical and sarcastic Lana can be. exhibit A, her re-work of TNBAR in NFR, that can be seen as vapid/ but totally fits the overall theme of what kind of man Norman might be, to that clearing into figuring out more so of what she wanted, and not being caught up in a man, more so like him. I personally think they fit the album's theme, and at least personally, them being the same sorta honors her artistry by simultaneously having them stay the same, while meaning something more supercharged and new to cohabit this record's themes.
  7. See that’s the thing tho isn’t it. Bc she did the whole fan album with LFL, and with how this forum loves to pivot - fans praise unreleased tracks to the point of worship, but when it gets released it’s another story, details here n there, and even if she lost the tracks, releasing them as is fits the theme of being who she is, not what everyone expects and wants her to be. This album is a revenge album. So many people stay in more heated mindsets and they get lost in it, and she contrasts this by for the most part, keeping composed and going inward. She strips what the public frames her in, intergenerational trauma, public narratives, relationships with men to finding wholeness within and of herself, the difficult relationship she’s had with her own mother affecting her own personhood to cleansing that, and on top of that, being able to find the courage and strength of instead of spreading pain, chooses to be loving and nurtures. I don’t think a lot of people today even still realize that. Bc it doesn’t fit some kind of edginess, or it doesn’t have many bangers (jargon jargon), people find it dull, but it’s honestly just a reflector on where someone might be when it comes to their own personhood and layers of self awareness and knowing. We’re used to people’s opinion being treasured expectantly and entitledly, but at the end of the day when you strip things to the bottomline, you’ve got an artist sharing more tender offerings. That’s just incredibly brave and it’s never so much about us, and yes the relationship btwn art and audience, but I think it takes a certain fortitude and finesse to realize that she’s been wanting to be understood for a long time. Not to be thought of binarily, but to just have a safe space where she’s allowed a little more patience than what’s she might’ve been deprived of for so long. Her fanbase no less. So she did it for herself. Focus that on personal experiences in your own life, and it can connect so beautifully. Yes you might find it boring bc what she wants for herself might be this wrote about thing of wanting kids/ family a simpler life, but it's more so of reclaiming yourself and living your own life, however you want to. That's another thing people seem to miss (to seemingly berate her for that shows a kind of double standard when all she's ever wanted to do was be herself). This isn’t directed directly towards you, I’m just passionate in defending this album and how it’s a real treasure that’s often misunderstood or written off for not fulfilling some kind of standard, when in reality, it IS it's own kind of standard and work. Just cus it seems soft or sweet, doesn’t mean that it didn’t take hell for it experienced, and what more, if the latter, how amazing is it to have very much retained it’s very essence and despite what she’s had to’ve carried for so long. It’s a dissipating, dispelling and disarmingly beautiful thing, only if you’ve found the secret of being aware of it.
  8. this love's possessin me but I don't mind at all - it's takin over me don't wanna fight the fall

  13. An album of hers that I actually care for as an actual album. So good
  14. it was a masterpiece wasn't it rite
  15. I really love this album already. the music videos add to the songs, and they're not even my favorites from it. dreamy, gentle, emotionally open. immaculate vibe/ production. never really paid attention to her stuff aside from singles, but I think this album changes that. it's a chill work.
  16. How it works is that you find a pic of Lana and describe it as another part of something: Lana Del Benne Gesserit:
  17. I knew that wait for your love reminded me so much of an 80s gay pride song, it gives me I Know A Place by Yuna. the video was really beautiful.
  18. I don't wanna fuck with your head, it's breakin my heart- to keep breakin yours again ~ such a sweet sounding song carrying heavier emotions
