Hi guys,
 
Love the song, avoiding the mess hahaha. Wondering how this year is gonna go.
 
Just wanted to say that Lana is eligible for more RIAA certifications: Platinum for UV, and Gold for Honeymoon and LFL.
Also BTD is at like 3.5m, so really might almost qualify for Quadruple Platinum which is wild! I hope she cares enough to collect these.

Haven't been on here in ages. But love the new tracks and so happy to see our girl free.
 
I really don't think she cares at all anymore about charting, commercial expectations, relevancy. 
 
She's just going to do what she needs to do and she trusts she has a hardcore fanbase who will follow her.
And we will.

Two critically acclaimed tracks already, phew! Hold onto your wigs, sisters. I see a Grammy on the horizon.

Watch her changing “Sylvia” title to “Sylvia Fucking Plath”

The album title is cringy but it confirms Lana has finally lost it and doesn’t give any fucks anymore. I think that’s nice, you know. That she finally feels comfortable enough to be herself, even if herself is kinda crazy and not worried at all.

Honestly this is so weird for me, i've always said that the lead singer from RHpainters was like the male version of Lana, and now she's even making music like them. This is a dream come true. I cant believe it :deadbanana:

Or Shirley Manson. Shirley would absolutely do it, and there's no question that Garbage has impacted Lana's music. I'd like to see that come together in a formal way.

It's time for her Impossible Princess.

Lana could pull off the trip-hop/experimental if she wanted to go deeper with that. I could imagine a song like this as her interlude 

I think this is her very essence: equal parts art and science. I think LDR as a persona/identity is meant to be someone who lives poetically, driven only by emotion and whims, makes her 'life an art', etc.
 
But the reality is she would not be where she is if she were just a wide-eyed innocent, dreaming about life from her window sill all day, or being led around by boys. Lizzy Grant is the shadow master and commander of the LDR concept; she dreams big but she is also a doer, the ruler of her own destiny. (Her critics who think she has no agency need to wake up —  who in pop music right now has more control of their own vision than her ?)   She is very calculating, knowing, and aware of how to give form to her dreams. It surely all starts with intuition and artistic intention and emotion, but then Science Lizzy kicks in — the one who researches, studies, analyzes, experiments w/ a hypothesis, puts in art in action. A good creative director is always equally artistic and scientific, and Lizzy herself has hinted at this in interviews. 
 
I also think someone like this is naturally driven to explore esoteric and marginalized philosophy/psychology/cultural topics; I'm sure she's even aware of Crowley, Theosophy, and the like. Not sure if I buy she was in 'a cult', but the chronology specifics don't matter so much, the essence of how it shaped her does. What's exciting is that she can bring these super niche topics into the warmth of the spotlight, even if she has to paint broad strokes to do so. I honestly can't think of someone else so widely known and loved that is able to pull this off in the 21st century. Maybe Grimes, but with her, it's literally the Wiki-meets-Tumblr remix version of everything. Young artists everywhere should be inspired that women like Lizzy are finding ways to make the outre and strange palatable.
