here we go again

I did a project regarding women in the music industry and their experiences, and Lana's early career was one of the three topics I chose. People tore her to shreds for being "inauthentic", especially when information of the Lizzy Grant days came forward. But we all know that story, but I have never seen, or heard of, a male artist be torn to shreds like she was, for public performances, to authenticity. Although, I've given this some thought since yesterday, if she felt like she couldn't truly make the music she wanted to since BTD and UV, does that mean that Honeymoon, Lust for Life, and Norman Fucking Rockwell are inauthentic to herself? I read somewhere here that someone said maybe she wrote those records to appease critics, and if that is so, does it take away from the things she sang about? I am having trouble articulating this, but it makes me challenge my perception of her last three albums, in a way. I mean, if she changed her lyrics and such to appease critics, that's fine, and artists make songs all the time that have no meaning. And I'm not trying to reignite that authenticity thing, but it makes me wonder. idk im having trouble putting my thoughts into this post, hopefully someone understands what i'm trying to ask/say EDIT: maybe im looking to much into it/overthinking things

the instrumental of ROM is for sale on her website for $0.99 it's only in mp3

someone said Gaga threw in references to Bayonetta and I'm SHOOK because I can see it

oh my GOD Gaga really said fuck you hoes, Imma show you what VISUALS are

wait did she leak????

WHAT A BOP RAIN. ON. ME!

oh whoops, i misinterpreted it but yes i agree

it was a working title for BTD so she needs to use it now lol also i wanna see your interpretation of what her album cover for it would look like! i was actually just thinking of that so it's funny you responded

scrap Whit Hot Forever and rename it The Revenge of Lana Del Rey and have it filled with angry songs recorded with Dan

the level of iconic that would be tho

i wonder if any celebrity has spoken on this in her defense

she's always been here, she never left

what a time to be alive

SHE'S STILL GOING

i just realized No Doubt made a music video in 2012 for their song Looking Hot that got taken down due to backlash of cultural appropriation of Native Americans, yet the Ride mv came out the same year (obv the headdress was only shown for a few moments in comparison) never got the same backlash as ND (as far as I know of)

no im living for her speaking her mind but shes being reckless and making herself look really bad

marina did it because social media negatively affected her and i can't say i blame her but lana needs it for her own good

i can feel her anger and energy through these posts but sis take a lesson from Marina and have your team run your social media

someone call Ed and Ben for damage control and Dan so we can get an amazing angry Lana album The Revenge of Lana Del Rey is here

the angry New Yorker in her is fucking here

Happy first day of Gemini season! Here's some chaos to start it and set the vibe!

@benmawson DO YOUR FUCKING JOB

the "there ya go" completely takes away any point she was trying to say. "there ya go" sounds condescending and sarcastic

is she knows them, then wtf did Doja mean
