American Whore

make a playlist!

listening to Chemtrails and then starting what we have it BB is actually great. they sound like they really should've been 2 disc sets and were meant to go together. textbook after Dance till We Die (bc we skip For Free) is perfect

it's literally not tho lmao insiders have told us it's a totally different track

i assume looking through who her family follows, then go out to personal friends and see who they follow, then cross reference from there? It wouldn't be hard to do, I guess, I just don't know who has the time to bother doing that

I think it's because she doesn't want to hand over her socials to someone else like an assistant or her management. She still wants to be very much in control of her own shit. That's why I don't think this will be a long lived leave of absence on socials, I think she's just leaving for a while and she'll be back when she's ready to announce something else like the covers album or the poetry book release, etc.

but those were sometimes fun when she'd spill the beans on the next album on social media way before and say it's coming on a random day

i was thinking about this too. artists always do things like this for whatever reason. i just hope in a few months, next year, whenever she's ready, she comes back and she feels good about it

is this her final interscope album? does anyone know what number of albums she's signed on with them for?

You know what? I bet this is her preparing herself before the album drops so she doesn't keep reading reviews that shit on her on Twitter and Insta and Facebook. I think she's trying to position herself in a way that she's able to just create what she wants without worrying or giving a fuck what critics think and her way of doing that is by deactivating. I bet she talked to Ed and Ben about it and they told her that would be the best idea because they're always going to have something to say no matter what album it is and what song she puts out, they're always going to say something. What happened this week? She dropped a single and video with an album preorder and I saw some reviews saying it's a bad song, blah blah blah, a lot of people really enjoyed it. What it's gonna come down to are the below areas I bolded/underlined. She literally said "I'm obviously continuing to make my spoken word albums and records and still write my short poetry books and that I'm still very present and I love what I do and I'm here for the music. And that I'm also just yknow, going on some different endeavors... The record, it's a compilation of a few older songs and some newer songs, some written by family and... there will probably always be more to come. I'm here making lots of records" She's not going anywhere, just stepping away for a while so she can keep creating. Remember, she's working on the poetry book that was meant to come out back in March still and she's dropping BB and she's working on the covers album. I bet she's probably finally wanting to go to some classes about writing music for a musical. It seems like she's been really interested in going into other random things, like books and poetry and spoken word albums, and she was interested in doing something with Rick as far as a musical kinda theatre thing wasn't it? I can't remember. This seems like a new turn of a leaf that she's realizing she's only making things worse on herself by staying online. I'm really happy for her as much as I'll miss her. (Now, we just need to start looking for her secret accounts ) you know what would be really fucking funny? if she deletes all her socials just to make an account here to talk to us about new stuff happening and communicate with the fans i know it won't happen but it would be cute. we know her team is very aware of LB so edit: also wanted to add, THIS IS HER MOST PERSONAL RECORD TO DATE. THIS RECORD IS HER TELLING HER STORY. Her deactivating her socials before reviews drop MAKES TOTAL FUCKING SENSE. She won't want to hear what negativity people say

nb4 lana makes a separate account on insta and twitter like she used to do

she also sang too tho, that's what Lana was reenacting in the National Anthem video so we already have her cover of the president's happy birthday song but there were others she sang too that are on that Great American Songbook list

STOOOOOPP ITTTTTT I NEED THAT!!!! why doooont you doooooo right like SOOOME other meeeennnn dooooo. that has to be on that cover record

i love british music, that's a big chunk of what i listen to tbh.

this right here!!! all we know is what lana and boz has said and boz has only confirmed a couple days ago that she's been recording for it. literally, she could've changed the entire concept so we have a lot to look forward to here!!!

yeah go back a page and i linked the full list that she could pull from on wikipedia

true, also Everything's Coming Up Roses would be interesting too. there's a lot on that list i could see her releasing a cover of. i really hope she gets to do a vinyl release, i already have You'll Never Walk Alone on vinyl, now i'm gonna need this album on vinyl

homophobic* because i want a cover of bowie too but what if she did this just to see how much of a hit a covers album would be and she ends up doing a great british hit covers album too after idk, we just need to keep our expectations in check. she might've changed the entire thing, she ONLY said it's a covers album with her tweet so the american classics and standards MIGHT BE gone and it might be just a shit ton of covers she's wanted to do for a while and could be a mix of newer and older songs. but let's expect those on the list and if she surprises us then we'll be eating

what we have to remember is this won't be an album of dream covers like King Crimson and Amy Winehouse, The Police, and Mazzy Star. keep in mind, some of those artists are british, not american and will probably be the great american songbook stuff. like these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_American_Songbook I could see the actual original Big Spender being on it. didn't she want to cover Peggy Lee?

just when you said no more pre-pre-release threads for a while we get another one this is one of the reasons to be a lana stan tho lmao ACTUALLY YES TO ALL OF THESE PLEASE

hopefully just zach. his production is never bad, i've never heard a zach song of hers that i didn't like. i think she could pull it off with him producing for sure but even then, as long as it's not minimalistic jack, then we're gonna get fed

IS THIS URBAN OUTFITTERS?!??

CAN I PLEASE JUST MENTION HOW I SAID A WEEK OR TWO AGO I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH MY BEST FRIEND, SAID OCTOBER.... 22 AND NOW THATS THE RELEASE DATE?????? i want credit for that thank u next

ew let's unmanifest that

stream Arcadia by Lana Del Rey

i don't hate her or the collab, but i don't like her music and don't want a whole album with her on it. i guess i'll take it, it's more lana content but i'd like the album to be released with nikki and then leak with everything as solo songs-- it's just annoying knowing we're gonna get an album full of lana AND someone else that i don't care to hear more from if that makes sense. their one collab was cute and all but it would've been a better song solo. regardless we have what we have and that's that. maybe someday a full solo version of BUS will leak, but given that lana apparently likes to hide her collabs on the tracklist before release... i'm still not sure we are out of the woods for a new song with her on the album random but how was target already sold out of preorders for blue banisters? what the fuck? guess i'm going to target on release day!!!
