American Whore

honestly when she starts putting random unreleased tracks on albums, that's when we need to worry bc we know she has absolutely no direction. to me though, it wouldn't shock me if she had cherry blossom on it for a while, i think she made a post this year with the lyrics on insta so that's not a shock but yikes. i hope by the time we get the album it makes sense all the way through

realistically for me, it's not so much that the album is delayed, but the fact that she's putting unreleased songs on it that might not even need to be re-recorded or reworked which is why it's delayed. it could be takes we already have so that makes the production time considerably lower.... and makes the delay almost non-reasonable.

i love how boz tried to make those cherry blossom lyrics a tease on atrl lmaoo anyways.... at this point i hope the three singles aren't on the album and are scrapped. they're good but if we're getting a FOURTH version of cherry blossom.... yikes. that's 5 songs we already have. at least just give us something more fun like a mastered version of Us Against The World or Serial Killer or a studio cover of Heart Shaped Box or Do Right

not international insta stans thinking she'd drop it as a surprise release on july 4 at midnight in their countries then it's not a surprise release

honestly though, it'd be funny as fuck if she did just drop it on sunday and nobody expects it because we all think it's been delayed hahahaha i won't expect shit but it would be really funny

i don't hope the new album leaks, i hope what won't be on the album leaks. whether that's the jack tracks that are scrapped, dealer if it's scrapped, or rock candy sweet if it's now been scrapped. like i'll happily wait for the final album if someone can just like.... give us those that won't for sure be on the album

I've been dying for a Kevin Parker/Tame Impala produced album so i'm hoping for that but doubt

What's his insta? I wanna see the tea

NAWWAL was originally Wanderlust and leftover from NFR as far as I remember and she reused the lyrics from Bird World (original NFR song) for dark but just a game, and then Yosemite was a leftover from LFL

wait she doesn't mention the fall time in WW "summer comes, winter goes, spring i sleep god knows summer comes winter goes, spring i skip heaven knows" or whatever it is so fall? Fall 2021 ladys, gays, non-binaries, and delulus

I don't think it's really all that fair to be screaming IT'S UNPROFESSIONALLLLLL when we kind of expected this. like.... guys we all chose to believe something that we knew wouldn't happen. remember when june 1 came and went? she just ignored it. the same thing with all the other dates the last few eras. what do you expect? lmao it usually comes out around 3-6 months after she gives a date, and realistically, she has said in the past that she likes to release every 15-16 months. technically we're about a year out from that time frame. i'd love another album but we've just gotten one in march and we have violet bent backward AND new singles to hold us over. especially when we heard she's changing the songs, we shouldn't known right then. if anything, it might be a good thing that she's changing the album and doing new songs instead of using leftovers from NFR and COCC, we already know a couple of songs from cocc were NFR leftovers. i'm just glad to know that jack isn't on this one. sad to hear no new rick songs, but we won with the news that jack isn't on it. we needed her to get away from him to develop her sound again. makes me wonder if they've had a falling out though

i would but if it's a digital release like i have a feeling it could be.... idk lol

i dont remember that. it was on dbree but not on youtube as far as i can remember

and honestly why do people care? not to be rude, but idk why it matters. he's literally just an insider, he's not a celebrity. i mean happy birthday to the guy, but like..... why does it matter to anyone when his birthday is lmao

i just wanna know already whats in store for this weekend -_- if it gets delayed i hope she says something about it

yall are throwing in your delusional cards this quick?

again with these jokes, she has already put out an album this year she also said spring she sleeps and released 3 songs in spring so

I checked ATRL. BOZ last said on 6/25 he hasn't seen any change as far as the release date. It could literally come or be delayed again, so just be prepared for anything. I guess here we go yall... our last week before we're either fed a whole ass new album or we'll be disappointed and have to wait a bit longer. at least we know she's working on an album. it could've been like after LFL where she wasn't writing much

Is this real or?

the meltdowns begin

That's fine and all but the facts are the facts. Be in denial all you want. Pandemic happened. It's still happening in some places of the world. People died. It may be harder to replace the people who literally died than you think in factories, facilities, etc. Shes an album artist and her music sells best when she has physicals at release. Who knows though, she may change it up and do a digital release. That still doesn't change the fact that things may be different that what you think. If it were that simple, we wouldn't still have book, movie, and video game delays well into next year and the year after. Tours can change and festivals can change. They can refund your ticket if it gets cancelled. This is a physical release, it's not the same thing as festivals and tours which are mainly scheduled for next year. There's a few this year but not many Also, being rich doesn't mean she doesn't want her business to be successful while writing music as a therapeutic form of escapism and for herself. She's allowed to be a business woman and make money if she wants to, while writing music for herself to get her thoughts out? Her way of doing it is selling music, tours, and merch, which a lot of us pay lots of money for. Why are we now resulting to gatekeeping because she's rich and she has a business so she's not "making music for herself, she clearly sells things"? To each their own about their opinions, but she's clearly made a path for other artists and she's a legend of our generation. Lol you're on a Lana forum in case you didn't know

Also the possibility of another poetry book with an audiobook, a covers album shes had in the works for a while, and other projects. She's a busy woman! We should let her work at whatever pace she wants, honestly. I'll be disappointed as much as the next stan but honestly.... i'm down for it to be delayed a couple months so i'll have more money to buy vinyl variants sksksk

This is nothing like that. Remember-- covid still exists. Things may be delayed at any point for anything. Pay attention to release dates for everything- movies, video games, books, music. Everything has been delayed by over a year. COCC was delayed by 6 months. I'm sorry that happened to you, and yes that person was abusive, but a date ditching you is something personal, whereas a release date being stretched due to a worldwide pandemic that might be out of her control (and since that could've happened and did happen last year, she could've decided to keep working on it). She's only getting a pass from me because of covid. But otherwise, either way, these two situations are completely different. This is more like when a pizza should take 8 minutes to bake, but ends up needing 2 minutes extra or 4 minutes extra. It's not going to inconvenience YOU by any way not to have an album you know nothing about yet out as quickly as YOU want. Imagine that pizza. Would you starve having to wait 2-4 extra minutes? No. The delay only truly inconveniences Lana and Interscope, which may be the point (if she's not friendly with Interscope like we think but who knows), but not stans who just got an album less than 4 months ago and a poetry book not even a year ago with an audiobook. Yeahhhh except it costs money to make music. Time is money. She has to rent studios, spend time with producers which isn't free, and at the end of the day she runs a business. Yes, it's unprofessional, but what can we do? We still stan and buy vinyls and will continue to do so because the music tends to be high quality no matter what anyone says. She still outperforms anyone else in today's generation, both in the studio, lyricism, and live shows.

the way lana says "spring i skip" but releases 3 songs during spring
