  1. i don’t believe she meant it to sound racist at all,, but her choices were odd and inexplainable, since she posted this just as black women are dominating the charts and the artists she named are mainly black women who had a lot of hate leveled at them for talking about their sexuality, which she’s just.. ignoring for some reason
  2. wha- why is she acting like she’s oppressed NOW, in 2020, when her last three albums have been well received + half the artists she named have been through way more shit than she ever has. she’s worshipped by every sad girl/gay on the face of the earth and the critics have warmed up to her so what even is the point of this (also.. FEMALE writers? girl. the majority of people who criticized you were incel men who were mad you were having sex with people who weren’t them)
  3. AKA:fall, midnight BTD:fall, midday Paradise: summer, evening Ultraviolence:winter, night Honeymoon: summer, early morning LFL: spring, morning NFR: fall, midday
  4. the artwork is some ms paint garbage.. which, knowing lana, means this is totally legit
  5. can john congleton produce her new album?? love his work, boy king is one of my favorite albums ever. his production on the last decemberists album was great too. pretty sure he was an engineer on nfr
  6. i’m not entirely sure what emotion i’m supposed to feel when listening to hiab other than utter confusion so i vote cg
  7. drowning mermaid

    Song vs. Song

    kill kill vs raise me up
  8. i’m in the majority and actually like nfr quite a bit,, are the lyrics asinine? yes. does the vocal production make my ears ring at times? yeah. do i cringe in pain when i hear the production on htd? absolutely. are critics just echoing each other for internet points? of course they are. i enjoy the melodies and the lack of excessive reverb on lana’s voice enough to like this album anyway (also bc mac is an absolute masterpiece),, but it makes complete sense that some people were disappointed. i might like the album, but it doesn’t feel like a lana del rey album. it feels like a pretty good album from some other artist trying to be lana del rey by using some of her songwriting cliches, if that makes sense.
  9. my only takeaway from the video is that i would die and kill for the beautiful dancer with the long wavy brown hair. when she smiled directly at the camera?? i fell in love but the rest of the video was a visual mess i mean,, what were they thinking
  10. still dating that expired jar of mayonnaise with republican leanings i see
  11. being a multi-millionaire with no taste should be a crime
  12. i kinda want a country album from her though, as long as it’s johnny cash country and not billie ray cyrus country, if you know what i mean
  13. comparing anything to megan fox is a compliment, the woman is talented lana wasn’t even in my top 5 this year, i feel like a fake
  14. i just can’t get into norman fucking rockwell (song) i don’t dislike it exactly i just never feel like listening to it. She should’ve put up Mariner’s for the grammy instead imo
  15. unlike lana del rey, who never tried to convince people she was latina and famously did NOT do chola makeup
  16. let’s all remember she grew up rich as fuck. this is pure ignorant rich kid behaviour,, she’s not even trying to be edgy she just genuinely doesn’t know any better
  17. hey were u guys aware that changing your style of lyricism and story-telling has actually nothing to do with your artistic vision and your experiences changing who you are and what you wanna communicate to people and everything to do with appeasing the left and wanting to become a woke PC clone??? the more u know huh (sometimes being raw and honest and daring to be vulnerable can be revolutionary. i agree that lana was mesmerizing when she was a marble statue towering over us but now she is softer and sweeter and made of flesh like you and me, and her problems echo ours and maybe that’s why some people find it more painful to listen to her. it’s not escapism anymore, and if you liked to sink into her made up worlds to escape from your grey life, then yeah, you might be disappointed)
  18. her dress is so adorable!! and it shows off her legssss (when will she throw those terrible shoes that don’t match any of her outfits away?)
  19. i love big thief!! i hope lana’s new record sounds a bit like u.f.o.f. tbh
  20. how to disappear just isn’t growing on me like it has for so many other people. i love the apple version but the production on the album version ruins the mood of the track entirely like?? so many weird choices were made and i don’t see how anyone thought those jingle bells would add anything to the song. it’s probably the only track on nfr that i skip
  21. okay so i have a completely personal grudge against astrology (one of my astrology obsessed friends started avoiding me when she found out i was a sagittarius, to this day i don’t know what she had against us sags) so if these are the actual lyrics, this is probably not gonna be for me
