Jack only solo produced 7 songs (so less than half) on the album, and 3 of them have samples. He didn’t ‘make’ Ocean, he helped and I think that’s a big difference

Not the A&W slander on that last page Severely side eyeing all of you. I do think jack has produced some of Lana’s best songs, but at this point I want someone completely new. No Jack, no Drew, no Rick, no Dan (Dan Heath can come back though). Idk why everyone here is obsessed with Dan A coming back, I haven’t enjoyed any of his work in the last 10 years and an Ultraviolence 2.0 is the last thing I want (sorry!) I’m very excited for Lasso because (hopefully) this is the first time she’s really switching up her sound since NFR came out, and I hope she really leans into country and doesn’t make it her 5th folk inspired album

Why is everyone acting like this is a jack only record? YES he’s involved, but the first song we’ve been teased with isn’t a Jack song. personally I think it’s a bit silly to hope for a super boppy album when her last ‘bop’ album was LFL which came out almost 7 years ago. I want a bop album as much as the next person but it just doesn’t seem realistic

That’s a very Charlie post

“Tune into churchchrome live now” no thanks Lana ❤️

for what it’s worth, Loved You Then and Now was described as a mix between Tulsa Jesus Freak and If You Lie Down With Me, so honestly it feels like the perfect song to be included on Lasso! I love all the songs on your playlist and I’m hoping you manifest something there

Not Lana Del LATE being the ONLY one to give them a fine I mean $28K is still a pretty hefty fine (although not as bad as the $100K+ fine they got last year) and since she’s the sole reason I hope she isn’t blacklisted or anything. I wonder who pays that fine? Lana/her label or Coachella themselves?

I look so good here

After a good bit of time with the album I can confidently say side A >>>>> side B TTPD is a top 3 while TA is bottom/mid tier, but I feel like both sides have their strengths. Side A I think is better melodically (and even then side B has some good moments, like The Prophecy) and side B is a bit better instrumentally while falling a bit flat melodically. I definitely do understand some of the criticism the album is getting, but I think it’s being a severely over hated just because the Taylor hate train is in FULL steam, and it’s crazy to think this is probably going to end up being one of her lowest rated albums. the biggest problem I have is there is no real summer/bop anthem. Down bad, Florida, so high school, broken heart are almost there but they all lack that little extra something. the problem is BOTH Aaron and Jack working alone is STALE and at the very least she needs to get them working together. Jack is good at vocal production and melody while Aaron shines on instrumentals and pulling good lyrics out of Taylor, but jack doesn’t shine instrumentally and Aaron isn’t great at helping Taylor get an ear worm melody

I hate long prereleases so I’m not in a super big rush for it to start, but I would love another small taste of what we’re getting. Henry come on is beautiful and I’d love to hear another part of it, or something new. the way she went from one extreme (teasing an entire album (NFR)) to the next (one snippet an era) is so funny to me. bring back the LFL level of teasing, that was such a happy medium

You can really tell she’s proud of herself and knows she absolutely killed it!!

no but she really should have waited AT LEAST a month to drop the second album, 31 songs all at once is overwhelming

no, he posted the ocean pic December 7th when the album was announced

for ocean Blvd he teased by posted the night time flower picture on his story a couple times he has never (as far as I know) posted album visuals until the album has been officially announced

At first I thought the desert pics Niel was posting could be Lasso related, but since he keeps posting more I’m thinking it’s not, there’s no way he’d be leaking all of Lana’s album’s visuals. Now that Coachella is over, and we’re almost only 4 months away, assuming there is no delay, I really think it’s time to start getting some crumbs of info.
