I’m really riding the Delulu train right now 
 
there wasn’t any big fanfare with the singles and I highly doubted we were getting anything, and then they dropped. If we’re less than 3 weeks away and BOZ got fresh tea today that the album isn’t delayed, that’s really good! And if it is delayed, I don’t see it being delayed a super long time 

it’s possible the physicals will come out later (like LFL). I’m sure the label knows no matter when physicals come out, fans will buy it 
 

yes!  he’s super reliable. If the album is delayed, it’s going to be within the next two and a half weeks and there’s no way he’d be able to predict it

And there is, as of right now, no delay!

the fact that BOZ said it probably wouldn’t be delayed after all is surprising but amazing !! I can see her dropping a ‘surprise album’ (just digital to begin with) cuz her label knows she’s got a lot of fans who’d buy physicals even after the digital release ! 

Whoa Lana changed the title again? This puta...
 
Anyways, can't wait for Paradise: The Next Chapter on July 4th! 

well the award for most confusing era officially goes to this one like we’re 3 and half weeks away from the release and we don’t even know the fucking title of the album 

not knowing the album title is so mysterious i literally cant think of anything else 

well since the title changed  (again…and again) i can finally say i hated that title. it’s just so lame and grandma neither iconic nor really memorable. i didn’t want the song as opening nor title track either so that’s a clear win in my eyes. 
the rest could go both ways: either she scrapped the grandma songs and gives us something with fire. or she’s just about to unleash another non-cohesive “just reworked the demos and made them 10 times worse enjoy xx :)" because either the media, her team or the fans made her self conscious and anxious. well….as long as it’s not delayed (for now) yay…i guess 

leak the beat-driven venice bitch demo  

Okay but fr whoever has the honor of doing an interview with her next time better ask about this mess, because I really want to know what goes on in her head and behind the scenes 
or else…

… or else i‘ll cry in the corner 

Hi, hi! Feel free to move this, but I am dropping some Lana mentions from the new Rolling Stone interview w/ Jack below...
 
What have you learned from working with Lana Del Rey? She seems like a very different artist than some of your other collaborators.
Very different. It’s a tough one to answer because I see her and my work as just, like, in a different zone or something. I don’t even remember sometimes how a lot of those things happen because everyone has a different process of getting somewhere. And when we’re together, I feel like we just, like, fuck around, just play some stuff. But I did learn not to do anything with her that I’m not prepared to put out before we leave the studio. Because if she’s feeling it, that door’s gonna close. She’s very vibe-driven.
 
How did “Venice Bitch,” which is almost 10 minutes long, happen?
There was a more beat-driven three-minute version. My process with her is not super precious. It isn’t, until it is. I remember her being like, “What if you just go play drums on it?” I was like, “OK, well, I’ll play, and what if there’s a long outro?” The way I play drums is very much as a fan of music. I spend a lot of time in headphones playing along to records. So I was playing and having a really good time. And I was like, “This part’s quiet, this part’s loud, this part’s crazy, this part’s kind of like acid-y.” Lana’s fun because she’ll call a sound “beautiful,” or “disgusting.” 
 
On a Bleachers Track
What song came first?
It was “Don’t Go Dark,” which was a literal account of the end of a relationship. I love that song. Lana [Del Rey] helped on that. Because I was just singing “Run, run, run, run with the wild,” and then she was like, [singing] “Do what you want.” And I was like, “Just don’t go dark on me.” It was one of those moments where you know, if someone was filming it, it would have been really special. And I was like, “Damn, that is a dynamite chorus.” So she’s a writer on that.
 
On Feedback for His Work
Who else is in your feedback group?
The best records are made with a small group of people that really believe in something. My group is like me, my manager, my A&R person who doesn’t even work on my label anymore — he’s just a really close person to me. Then my family, and some artists like Lana. I always play some for Ella [Lorde]. Taylor, of course. 
 
On His Artistic Direction
 
It feels like your production both for yourself and your collaborators has gotten more organic lately.
Yeah, for sure. It’s just different phases, different things. Five years ago, I loved nothing more than cutting up samples and playing them on my MPC. That thing has been in the closet for two years now. I think one of the reasons why there’s a group of people I can do good work with is because we’re all feeling a similar thing.
When you make something, you’re at your most valuable if you want something to be out there and you’re not finding it. And what’s not out there is this sort of, like, band-on-fire kind of New Jersey sound mixed with the way I write.
I felt that way. Lana felt that way. Taylor felt that way. And the Lana record and Folklore are very different kinds of organic than this Bleachers rec-ord. But it is on a similar tip of like, “Let’s start to do the thing not everyone can do. Let’s play in a room.”
 
 

Mike is going to give us an even harder hitting FMWUTTT for her ultimate revenge album  
It‘ll start very intimate with the three singles but take a turn in the middle and end iin a huge crescendo, where she curses the media and her fans and vocals serve Serene Queen - literally ending with the mic dropping 

Dealer isn’t on the album, we all know that 
Anyway I’m glad “Blue Banisters” isn’t the title

I don't think that applies to Lana. She's an icon with a huge fanbase around the world that will stick with her forever. If her label decides that they don't care about first week sales, the album will definitely make good money with physical sales down the line, especially if the music is good, which it always is.

i feel like after COTCC’s physical success, they know a large number of Lana’s fans will buy physicals, and it doesn’t really matter when the vinyls come out and how many varieties there are, they’ll sell. 
 
We better get LYTAN demos from the 3 albums it was going to be for, Yes To Heaven style. 
 
 
he did say he would post fun facts after the albums out!! I’m sure there will be a lot of tea!
 
i can’t believe this is most likely going to be out in like 2 and a half weeks 

Not the press release saying last month when the singles came out 
 
“off her next album” 
 
and we had pages of discussions about how it didn’t call the album Blue Banisters. Maybe the name change has been known for awhile. 
 
also could be why she deleted the original ‘Blue Banisters’ Instagram post
