first off, she's not binding the books herself. that makes zero sense. this isn't a garage sale I think she just meant she (herself) is getting them bound. I think what we're seeing on insta is just her organizing the order of things and maybe the real thing will be photocopies of her manuscript? IDK. Also OT, but the fact that some of y'all can still think she's a good lyricist after "If I pray really tight, get into a fake bar fight" honestly ASTOUNDS me

Well to be fair she does have other writers on her tracks lol

I cant wait for the Mariners instrumental to leak I want to slay to it

This bitch

I feel so bad for Lana I think she has stockholm syndrome...

Lana is our fairy godmother who fell in the ash tray, and salvatore is our crazy great aunt who is doing crystal meth

Not to interrupt all this setlist discussion but I think I may have cracked the "self-publishing" / "worldwide distribution" enigma. What if she actually self publishes, hand prints, and binds a small number (less than 100 copies) of Violet Bent Backwards, which is what she'll be bringing to Mom and Pop bookstores in Cali, but then has a wide distribution of a more cost effective and factory friendly version that will go to places like Target, Barnes & Noble, etc. It would be similar to what JK Rowling did with Tales of Beetle the Bard or whatev, where she had the widespread marketable copies but also the "illuminated manuscripts" I think she called them, which sold for much higher. Maybe Lana, herself, will sell the personalized copies for a dollar, but then people will take it to Amazon and eBay for $500+ Anyways, just my speculation! Nothing she does these days make sense anyway so I could be completely wrong

The only attention she's getting is from articles like these https://www.thefader.com/2019/03/06/lana-del-rey-poetry-book-violent-bent-backwards-norman-fucking-rockwell But like I said, her management obviously thinks there's no such thing as bad publicity by this point

I think the closest we'll get to "heavy metal" is Flipside or Heroin I for one think Lana probably CAN act if she wanted to. Have you seen Poolside? lol

follow up: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=c0D71yzFqbY this is the kind of thing I'm talking about ughhh her VOICE

Can you imagine if Lana made acoustic covers of all of her songs?? For example, the bridge to off to the races with nothing but a grand piano and her voice, or MAC May Jailer style, stripped down to just the acoustic guitar? It worked with Venice bitch at the Apple performance, if she did her whole discography this way I would probably astral project Edit: lest we forgot her iconic born to die live performance

You know its bad when salvatore is reaching out to God and not the dev*l

Okay I'm trying my hand at this whole psychic thing, even though I know I have singularly the worst intuition: after 1500 pages on this thread, we will get some real news

We also still dont know if its the album cover or just a magazine cover...

They're probably just thinking any press is good press (even if its falsified info)

At this point the album better come w a diamond bracelet and Gucci slides

If The Good Life leaked she could honestly keep NFR

Y'all need Jesus! Where my Lana Hillsong fans at??

What did she even post? Whatever happened to that person who said "my prostate is quaking for news" or some shit, bc that news never came and I want to drag them

This is like a punishment era. I feel like I'm legit on Lana probation until we get the album on good behavior

I'm not even going to dignify this theory.. In other news it took 1300 pages for an album release date and we still don't have one (to the tune of 13 Beaches smh)

How do we get Ariana Grande to bully Lana into releasing the album? Any ideas?

GBA - simply by the subject matter alone - is an anthem and a turning point in Lana's career. Remember when Lana was quoted saying some shit like "I'm not a feminist, I don't understand why we need feminism"? Yeah GBA overturned ALL of that

Didn't she get interviewed by Kim K or James Franco or something once?

We need someone famous to drag Lana for refusing to release NFR. That would get her attention. However, no celebs seem to care about our IG baddie bc she's irrelevant, just sayin
