    he's a fucking 'celebrity' cop on some shit tier TV channel I don't think he's got much room to talk. He legit shares airtime with the likes of Duck Dynasty, The Walhburgers and Storage Wars, even the term 'celebrity' is a bit of a stretch for him honestly.

    I was tapping and tapping and then I realised I can't see it cos he blocked me. Evidently I struck a nerve with the #DumpTheCop hashtag in her comments the other day. Good.

    Thoughts is very impressive... the loud, brash, jarring instrumental and Charli was just like "I got this," and improvised/wrote the entire thing in like a half hour, or whatever she said.
     
    It's one of the more standout performances on the album IMO... not my favorite track but yet, it just has this special, particular quality about it that I can't quite explain, but it's there and it's great.

    Heyo!
     
    Like I mentioned in my blog post earlier this month, I was thinking of starting a non-Lana related art thread here too. Don't worry, I will come back to drawing Lana one day, but I just feel like drawing other people and things sometimes too. I have many ideas in my head, like most others I guess, and ideas I keep in my mental list of things I'd like to create. I thought this would be a nice place to share them as well. But if you're here for Lana, click here to check out my thread.
     
    I'm currently working on a short 2-page comic. Since I'm currently unemployed and don't know what I'd like to study next, most of my days are quite unfulfilling and I wanted to make a comic about that feeling and still trying to make something of your day. I've only drawn three panels so far, about to work on the fourth right now, so I won't share it yet, but I hope it can be of help somehow for anyone out there who might feel the same.
     
    But I figured I need to show something to start off this thread, so below is a drawing I sketched sometime last year and eventually finished in October for Inktober with a The Legend of Zelda twist. This is Princess Zelda from one of the video games, and while her head isn't perfect if you stare too long at it, I'm still proud of it. If you'd like to see more of my doodles art for Linktober, you can check out my Twitter thread. I won't post them all here because they'd just take up a lot of space. And I don't think so many of you here are that interested tbh.

     
    I've also been trying to think of things to use my colored markers for recently! Those of you who has seen my art before knows that I almost exclusively draw in black and white, but I want to use these markers now that I have a few colors to choose from.
    More will be coming soon (hopefully)! Thanks for stopping by.

    This will absolutely be unpopular but it's also a bit of a "my crackheaded diary entry"
     
    I think the reason I find it really difficult to love NFR is because it feels disingenuous.
     
    There are songs on her other albums that are not 100% based in reality due to the persona that she claims she never had. However, she touted NFR as being "day in the life" and I don't feel that the dichotomy is due to persona, but rather ... disingenuity.
     
    Take Bartender, for example. It's about hiding her relationship from the paparazzi and trying not to relapse into alcoholism, yet she's plastering her latest boyfriend all over insta and it appears, due to several accounts, that she's drinking again. Both of those things are her prerogative, but in the context of NFR's music supposedly being "honest" and "day in the life", I find it a bit
     
    Then there's the matter of NFR, the song. I mean ... if any of her boyfriends are Norman Rockwells, it's clearly him ... life imitating art?
     
    I realise that all of these songs were written as early as 2017, and that things have likely changed, but most of these things I'm talking about are 360s and it makes me wonder if they were ever based on reality in the first place.
     
    Then there's Fuck it I love you which, supposedly, isn't about her, but it clearly is. Like, one of the few songs on the album that actually seems really honest and sounds like it's definitely about her isn't about her. K Lanz.
     
    She namedrops/shades Kanye in The Greatest but she's honestly not looking a lot better than he is, nowadays.
     
    I guess what I'm trying to say is that, four months on from release, the person who made this album is already unrecognisable from the person she is now, and I find that jarring.

    This is where we're going to disagree even further. I think that from Cruel World to Pretty When You Cry, the album is a ten across the board. Outstanding tracks one after the other. I understand that for a lot of fans lyrical redundancy is a huge issue for them on Ultraviolence, though I kinda felt that way when I first heard the album, nowadays that doesn't bother me as much. I think that Ultraviolence's strength lies in its intoxicating and atmospheric production. Though I prefer the single version (the Rob Orton mix? Anyway the Official Audio on Lana's YouTube page) of West Coast, it truly is a masterpiece in its own right. When Lana sings the bridge in Sad Girl, it's probably the highlight of the album to me. The instrumentals on all these tracks are just otherwordly. As for the rest, well Money Power Glory as its strength and weaknesses, I don't really care for Fucked My Way Up To The Top. Old Money is a gem in my honest opinion. The Other Woman is a fine cover. The reworked version of Black Beauty is amazing, though it sounds off a little in some part. Guns and Roses... and Florida Kilos actually grew on me over time and I actually enjoy it now. The album is not perfect, but it's my favourite. It's a solid 8-8.5/10.
     
    I simply do not feel this way about NFR, I definitely enjoy songs like the title track, Venice Bitch, California and to a certain extent The greatest, but even on these songs I find myself cringing over the lackluster production. I simply do not enjoy how flat/dry and tinny the instruments and overall instrumentation and voice mixing sound on this record . I know it doesn't seem to be a huge problem to most fans on here, but it is for me. After listening to records like Born To Die, Ultraviolence and Honeymoon, which all had their strength and weaknesses, but overall sounded pretty amazing and outstanding. A record like NFR to me sounds utterly flat and quite forgettable from a production/instrumentation and mastering point of view. From the first track it sounds off; the piano (and overall instrumentation) in the title track sound so cheap and tinny, too much ambient/white noises, and utterly flat and compressed vocals. To me NFR is more like a 6, maybe a 7/10 on a good day.
     
    I guess we're going to have to disagree about this forever, I went back to listening to the album a couple times over the past five months and I still feel the exact same way. What's worse is that the few tracks that I actually liked are already losing their luster. I just simply do not think of NFR as being this amazing record that stands out in Lana's discography. To me it stands out in other ways.

    For me it's more about what he won't do ... with his platform he could easily step up and say "yes, there are numerous, serious problems with law enforcement, and here's what I recommend we do about it/here's what I'm doing about it" or some shit ... but nah. I mean, I think law enforcement is inherently flawed, but he could at least try. However, he'll just keep using her, and his increased popularity, to plug his show which exploits marginalised people.

    Nah, but speaking of Chase, I miss him.
