    Remember when Fiona Apple's record company shelved Fiona's "Extraordinary Machine" album and how pissed her fans got. They were so angry that they sent the record company apples and protested in front of the record company building.

    The album was eventually released in 2005. 

     

    Something like this would be great to support Lana. Like I said before, I have a feeling the record label shelved NFR. Look at what they almost did to UV. Lana wouldn't keep songs she wanted to release for shits and giggles. God knows what's going on behind the scenes.    :lanasrs2:

     

    this is actually a FANTASTIC example, because what happened with fiona's record turned out to be that it was never actually shelved, but that she didn't like the terms her label gave her for working on it, and quit rather than comply with them (i'll put a better explanation in a spoiler in case anyone cares, but that's the gist of it). so basically production and promotion on the record just stopped entirely, and fans assumed it had been shelved, so they set up the free fiona protests. after that kind of display of support, fiona ended up getting the funding and the go-ahead to finish and release her album how she wanted. so i feel like this is actually a really good parallel to the lana situation, since we don't know what exactly is going on; putting pressure on the label would be a great way to get some information at the very least!

     

     

    what happened with the fiona record was that she had an almost fully produced version complete, but it didn't fit with her vision so she wanted to remake most of the songs. the label wouldn't give her the money to redo more than one song at a time, and they would have to see each song when it was finished to decide whether they liked it before giving her the green light on the next one. she decided to just quit rather than let the label have that kind of involvement in the creative process, so for all intents and purposes it appeared that the album had been shelved, hence the protest. but even though the protesters didn't know what was going on behind the scenes, the pressure they put on the label ended up achieving their goal anyway...hence why this feels very relevant

    i want to pour goats blood over her white cotton-blend adidas clothing and toss a cake mixer on high into her extensions to tangle them and unleash the braincells being contained by her nasta almond milk conditioner

    a lot of your posts, including this one, read like some kind of surrealist poetry and i'm honestly jealous of the ability to string words together so masterfully

    also I can NOT stand that girl next to her. She's literally been everywhere around her lately. Plus she sounds so shallow damn I don't want to be mean but I feel like those girls are like... harmful to the brain

    YES thank you, i know a while back there was a discussion about not liking her friends bc she spends too much time hanging out with them instead of working or whatever but like...i don't even care about that kind of speculation, i just get very very bad and shallow and generally off vibes from them, especially that girl.

     

    Not quite... Yeah, everyone pretty much knows that Catholic church is against same sex relationship...

    But, not all of them offered conversion programs like this particular one. It's just fucked up on so many levels

    Okay bear with me, I'm about to take y'all on a journey... I think I know what's happened here (I write for the 1000th time): Lana WAS planning on releasing the album at the top of 2019 as planned, hence VB and MAC coming out in September of last year. Then, in January 2019, her label last minute decides to push Billie's release earlier than Lana's since she's the shiny new YOUNG thing. Lana lashes out passive aggressively by releasing Hope (a song that is not single friendly but personal to her), and acting like a teenager [insta baddie] on social media. She's ironically flaunting to her label that she can act young and carefree as well, in spite of them choosing Billie over her. Her insta baddie attitude and new friends also tie in with the theme that this will be her "happy album" a la Happiness Is a Butterfly. We're done with depressing Lana. She put that phase to rest with L4L, specifically Get Free. So for us to soak up the new era, as we've seen, she's out here living her best life: hanging with friends, laughing at nothing in videos, showing off a bit. We have literally never seen Lana this happy before at such an extended period of time. I really think she means no harm with all of this confusing behavior. She's trying to get back at her record label for postponing her release in favor of rookie Billie after all her years of hard work putting out albums, and she's also building the world and image of NFR for us. However, that said I really am getting tired of the waiting game and I'm just looking forward to when Billie's release will wear off and Lana's label allows her to get her release back on track again.

    didn't she call NFR "sad girl shit" at some point? other than that this really makes a lot of sense though

    you know what elizabeth

     

    i don't give a fuck about promo at this point, or what you wear, or any sense of an "era" at all, or even the album artwork honestly

     

    i just want the goddamn music

     

    i don't even care if you give the whole ass album a hiadtsdhdhjjihfurch-duhk style cover, or if you play no live shows and just take a year off to drink matcha and read milk and honey

     

    i just need the music ok

     

    my psyche is starving
