What is it with the "scrap-phobia" everyone has here?!?! Objectively, she never scrapped that much over the years once she started sharing parts of an album. When she is recording it, yes, songs get tossed aside, but she aint' different from other artists. Let me bring to you the "good news" I have been telling for months: she can't scrap the whole thing. Jack was not as available as Rick was (since he is based in NYC) to write and record new songs on the spot. If she does put aside Jack's work, I'm not sure she would still be in good terms with him, changing the direction of the album last minute.

I read that a lot, but I don't think it's the case. To me, she sounds as if she is on vacation: still cares about the work, will come back to it at some point, but wants to take things slow and relax. The moving from one producer to the other is what was expected of her to please the record company, that was laying out all of the possibilites in front of her. I don't think she is lazy. Her music still sounds amazing to me. it's just that now, she runs the show, for better or worse. I think it pleases Interscope as well, the she doesn't have a clear plan: they know she will deliver a solid album that will work well overtime on streaming platforms, plus they could lay out the best strategy for Billie (which succeeded). Is Elie with Interscope as well since she changed management? And is Taylor with Interscope also? if it's the case, they must love Lana's independance lol. I don't get why everyone is blaming her "housewives" friends for the delay. When she performs at festivals, it's pretty rare that a new song other than the singles is perfromed actually, album out or not.

No, she did say she met Jack in December. Which makes me believe that Bartender was produced by Jack as well and my have a chance on ending up on the album.

V Mag is published every two months. So possibly May-June? Unless she is finally set on releasing NFR, I expect the interview to be as shallow and empty as the Elle Canada's one.

I'm with you on that one. End of summer is probable (August, September), even if the poetry book isn't out at that time.

Yes, but the «there is no plan» part doesn't look good for a multiple release :/

Honestly, we have been preparing for the worst for so long that if the cover looks like that, it wouldn’t be so bad.Could that picture be the back photo of the poetry book?

Thanks, sweetie!

can't find the post on his Insta, but maybe we can ask him to spill the tea here? @@Say Yes to Heaven

Say Yes to Heaven spoke with someone at Liongate. He has all the details about LIB. From what he posted on Insta, a couple of weeks ago, Lana submitted a snippet of Life is Beautiful, for the Adaline trailer. Liongate has that snippet locked somewhere and doesn't have all the rights to the song (from what I understand, Lana and her team have the «other half» of the rights).

I’m a Gemini and i don’t get her behaviour lol. Geminis are know for having a duality inside of them, being torn apart by two opposite sides, two opposite forces. I hear it often in her music and I Love it. But the way this era is handled is more a case of « I’m doing whatever whenever ». I think she’s more of a Gemini with attention deficit disorder at this point lol.

Interesting. She wants to release a couple more songs before the album and yet she has no planned strategy. I won’t expect many songs honestly other than the lead. It’s clear though that she has pretty much all the freedom she wants with Interscope, from what I read.

It’s coming in 2019. I’m thinking August and try to move on with my life. The desperate waiting is making me miserable.

Maybe it has to do with age? I went to a similar festival here in Canada for a couple of years. At some point, I didn’t feel like the next year would be as fun for me anymore. Maybe this is what is happening to her. Or maybe not, I don’t know.

Ok, ladies and gays, we need to accept the fact that NFR will surely be released by the August or September, based on other singers' releases (Madonna, Taylor...). Plus the album doesnt feel beginning of summer at all. So, we need to move on, and not come here as often. Anyways, most of us are so pissed at her that even if she released the damn thing today, nobody would appreciate it. We all need a couple of weeks of silence to process, grieve and get over the fact that this era wasn't handled properly in order to be a little bit more at peace when she finally releases it.

I’m part of another Lana fan group on FB: I love we are all up to date here and they are always two weeks behind lol. Big topic today: the trademarked name lol. And the argument brought up is a screenshot that was debunked here Hahahaha !

probably little bitch. It was the user’s name who asked what was a happening with NFR

It's not bad... but not excellent neither. I do feel like Madonna is at the point of her career where her best album is behind her, just like U2. True, she is a legend and she has an impressive career and her ambition is remarkable. However, she is at an age where her topics of predilection (sexy dance hits) sound a bit weird and out of place at 60. Plus: there was a time when Madonna alone was enough for her albums; and now, she has many many collabs on an album... I wonder if it is worth it. And I hate what she did to her face: girl, there is such a thing as too much surgeries.

The release won’t draw big numbers I think. But after a year or two, people could stream NFR while working and studying or doing whatever and it might have an impressive-ish number of streams over time.

If we get the Maleficient song before NFR, I'm....

Last week, I had a thought that maybe she would release HIaB this week, since she first teased the song Easter weekend last year...Then I remembered she probably doesn’t notice these things and that we see so much more into this than her.

Jack doesn’t have the « bad guy » aura she loves. I love your theory though. I’d love it to be true haha! And we could add some up by saying that she met the actor she’s been apparently seeing for the last few months (can’t remember his name) and she couldn’t decide between the good and the bad guy...

He publishes only when a single is out. Probably out of respect for her. When MAC came out, he published a picture of her recording the track, he tweeted how and when Hope was made, etc.

Ok, we have reached a new low. I won't say anything else.

My sweet summer child, you still have a lot to learn lol Seriously, at this point, the only certainties we have have come from sources outside of her. When Hope was released, so was this official press release from Universal, stating that Hope, VB and Mariners were fan tracks, that the lead was coming soon (it was never named). And many read that the tracks will be on NFR. http://www.umusic.ca/press-releases/84263/
