There’s nothing wrong with being disappointed with her lack of communication to her fanbase - even though she owes us nothing - but to claim she’s emotionally abusing her fans is ridiculous... 
 
The disappointment isn’t even warranted though because we got 3 new songs the other week & an updated release date for the album on July 4th. If you’re upset nothing came yesterday, that’s on you. 

Lana said the album is coming on July 4th. At the end of the day, an individual is the only one responsible for their own frustration about an album release. 
Maybe for some people, being on LB and in this thread is like watching paint dry - I think the entitlement and claim that Lana has inflicted "emotional abuse" upon people really says more about them than it does about her. So if you really feel that way, here's a friendly reminder:

this!!! 100%! All of this!
 
”she doesn’t update us”
 
but literally said “Album out July 4th” in April!
 
I’ll understand the meltdowns July 4th (assuming she doesn’t change the date by then) but she very clearly did let us know the date changed. With Chemtrails she gave us the September 5th date, said nothing, and we didn’t get our first song until October. I think this is a complete 180 situation. 

theres a difference between being Delulu for fun, and getting actually mad at her and accusing her of abuse.

You really had this thought, then thought to type it out? Please go outside and touch grass, draw with some crayons, ANYTHING. Borderline emotional abuse? Get a grip of yourself.
 
You know what's "borderline emotional abuse?" Her fans that share her Bumble profile, stalk and harass her friends, family and managers and tell them to go fuck themselves, to die, etc. That's "borderline emotional abuse."
 

So I just got into the thread fully today and I want to share some thoughts on the whole June 1st thing. Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse lol.  Honestly, the release date thing doesn't phase me anymore - if she releases, she releases and if she doesn't, she doesn't. She just put out three new songs a few weeks ago + an entire album, so I'm really content. The fact that she even planned to release another album this year at all is giving us a lot more than expected. While it's true that she has a tendency to not stick to release dates, you can't deny the fact that we get things from Lana pretty frequently. It's not like we're starving for music or anything (though I do understand that quite a few users here didn't like Chemtrails or the singles). I also understand being disappointed over the fact that nothing happened yesterday. That's fine. But to go as far as to claim emotional abuse over an artist not releasing something on a date they mentioned on Instagram a few months ago? That's too far. 
 
Anyways, BB maybe on July 4th, coming to outsell Independence Day  And again, sorry for re-bringing the topic up, I just had a lot of thoughts in my head and felt like sharing 

We are living on sheer willpower 

exactly, I just want to confirm if she's really gonna use the selfie again or if she's gonna do something different
if so, what kind of visuals she's gonna serve, is it gonna be another selfie, a professional shoot, a photo by charlie or chuck or neil???? 
can we expect an alt cover?? 
 
so curious

EXACTLY tracklist and preorder out this friday START THE COUNTDOWN 

this!!! 100%! All of this!

Cause being delusional and manifesting crazy things like RCS and BB being 2 albums is fun but I think we all know we are just joking and when it ends up not being true we just manifest the next thing and move on. I mean there's not much to talk about so making weird theories and saying what we expect/want it's a nice way to keep the discussion going and seeing other people's opinions and tastes while we wait for actual info about the album. 

Today I went back to this article from BBC:

Quote: „To achieve true Prince-like levels of mystery, I think she'd have to be much more removed from the internet and the press than she is at the moment“
 
Maybe she is trying this out

anyways let's manifest the album cover being shot by nadia lee or whoever is capable of giving us her serviest cover yet 
(even though I lowkey wanna have the picsart cover in vinyl form just for laughs) 

theres a difference between being Delulu for fun, and getting actually mad at her and accusing her of abuse.
