People “over topics” on a forum dedicated to discussing topics please.

Clocked her a bit. It’s interesting though, Trump’s presidency sort of exposed the misconception that America was a progressive nation when the South just didn’t have a voice for a long time. Lana has taken progressive stances, sure, but her music has dealt with a lot of regressive themes like the romanticization of an older, more conservative America and a yearning to perform traditional gender roles. I don’t think Lana’s racist or phobic of anyone, but ultimately a religious woman who believes in the idea of sinning, being saved, and God loving all of us. Take from that what you will. I do think it was lame af of her to criticize Kanye for endorsing Trump, but maybe she has apologized privately 🙂↕️🙂↕️

The deep dive I just did… idk how our girl went from libt*rd to maga.

wait what’s tea?

Mm she follows *those* fans to play nice and ensure they don’t get angry or agitated.

For anyone interested in Lana’s political stance (2024): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v1DWNxI3ENk&pp=ygUXTGFuYSBkZWwgcmV5IGplbGx5IHJvbGw%3D

Boo what?

It would be cute if Patti was actually invited 🙂↕️

Need to have an hour long sit down with Mackenzie Stith

Sorta kinda

This is the parasocial behavior Chappel Roan talked about. Leave her be — unless Lana reveals herself to be bigoted or racist or whatever, stop assuming she is.

What? I’m not bringing it up to cause controversy or anything, I’m just saying it’s not a shock that she’s dating an antivaxxer

Y’all can not seriously act shocked that the girl who was spotted wearing a mesh mask in a grocery store (yes it wasn’t just the music video shoot) married a conspiracy theorist. Come on now… https://m.youtube.com/shorts/j_9DcZCm2rc

Do we think she

She lowkey needed a man that sets boundaries with her fans because she doesn’t really have any.

Guestlist guess: Grant fam (Patti idk) Jen Stith out of her friend group Alana Hunter and sveta Jack and Margaret The older lady who she’s seen with often Judah Smith and his wife

I’m just. Happy for her crazy ass tbh. 🥲

Question for the stans who have been here since before Lust for Life: how has Lana changed in your eyes, both positively and negatively? For me, I’ve seen so much growth in the music, both lyrically and sonically. Unpopular opinion I’m sure but Jack helped refine her sound and stripped away all the gimmicks. As an observer of Lana the person, she’s definitely tried (and failed) to strip away the elusive persona, but even her pretending to be normal feels like playing dress up at times, which only makes her more of an elusive figure. This is why she’s amassed such a cult fanbase because no one really knows her. I’ve also noticed her lack of interest in live performance. I think her headlining major festivals was long overdue, but ultimately she seems uninterested in curating an impressive live performance. She could’ve gone full avant garde with the Coachella set but she just tweaked the same set list she’s been singing since the LATTM tour and said here damn. I also think she went through something pre-pandemic; starting with the cancellation of the NFR tour and leading into QFTC, mesh mask, I’ve dated rappers… I think she was ready to give it all up for a bit and her team helped her back after Blue Banisters. Some interesting lore there that no one ever really discusses probably because every fan wants to forget that era lol.

You don’t feel like Lana’s been underappreciated? That’s essentially what I’m getting at. Like this album might not be great idk, but hearing that critics were essentially giving it a half listen kind of sucks when she’s producing/produced great music.

.

I can’t stand her team anymore. This was clearly an attempt to ramp up hype in the UK, but it’s a market she generally does well in anyway. You know where she needs promo? The US. A market she’s been underperforming in since NFR. I get that Lana doesn’t do promo anymore, but it seems silly of them to lift the embargo on these reviews so early. For what reason exactly? This album clearly isn’t as palatable as NFR or Chemtrails or even BB. It’s just a lame strategy imo, but I guess it was a risk that just didn’t pan out. Ugh.

Nope sadly

Gigwise doesn’t count towards Metacritic oh.

Gigwise dubbing it her magnum opus is INSANE.
