    I love how this sounds exactly 50% Quavo (I can only assume, I don't know his music tbh) and 50% Lana. Super excited! I want Lana to be THAT girl on every rap song.

    This sounds nothing like Qu4vo’s music. Just peep his recent music. This is way more commercial. And I’m saying this for both artists. It’s commercial sounding for him and L4na.

    First single from Lasso is here :trisha:. I’m back sooner than expected because of this  :toofunny:.

    People still asking if it’s for Lasso when the leaker literally said it’s a COUNTRY song. Anyway, from the snippet I really like how it sounds. It sounds like “Summertime Sadness” to me. It’s crazy. Like a more happy and midtempo version. Just very summery. A vibe. It also sounds like her unreleased song “Ridin’”. It sounds like “Ridin’ x Summertime Sadness”. And why does L4na sound like a little kid/boy at the end. The contrast with Qu4vo’s voice make it sound like that :toofunny:.

     

    “Summertime Sadness” has this underlying western influence which is also partly “country” music. Genuinely hope the album is filled with “Twangy” sounds and guitars.

     

    Also, this sounds very commercial. Unexpectedly so. I really thought the first single would be something more traditional. Like a traditional country song. Very classic sounding. A acoustic guitar country song like you know the Henry snippet. L4na has been releasing very uncommercial first singles or just singles in general since NFR. Doin’ Time was the only proper somewhat beated “bop” song she released since 2019. This is very unexpected.

    I was going to take a break from posting, but I have one last thing to say.


    Genuinely hate the accusations of her being on Oz3mp!c. She’s been steadily and organically loosing weight since last year. Literally since the 2023 summer shows. The weight loss was already apparent by November last year when she did that Christmas Special.

    Critics have been eating it up, so it's not much of a damage for her career

    What do critics have to do with the Coachella audience? :toofunny:

     

    Mind you, Blue Banisters has a higher “critics” score than Born To Die. And only one album is almost a career ending flop. Her reputation with the GP is on the line here. This is the first time I’ve read about people leaving a L4na show at a festival in droves before her set is over. I don’t think this had ever happened before. Her set is usually the most packed at festivals. This could affect her future festival billing.

    Honestly, I’m taking a break from social media and anything L4na related until September (Lasso) or whenever she decides to release the first single from Lasso. Just to let this Coachella mess faded and get my hype back for Lasso.

     

    I was initially so hyped for this too. I really thought they were going to do something truly different, but the first weekend performance (not her best vocally and the vibes were off) and esp the same setlist (arranged in a way that made it even worse, baffling really) left me so disappointed and deflated. I’m not going to watch next week show. It genuinely gives me anxiety. It’s not good for my mental health.

    She always had that idgaf attitude while singing, she's just vibing yk. Lollapalooza Chile 2018 performance of Off To The Races is a perfect example of her current stage presence, she's very charismatic and comfortable but she doesn't have the need to sing every song from word to word when she can also vibe and dance to it and heat the public up.

    That would be great but she was uncomfortable at Coachella and wasn’t vibing. The public wasn’t eating as they left.

     

    I’m genuinely worried about Weekend 2 being empty. That would be embarrassing af. Hopefully, a wake up call for her and her team.

    One thing I’d love L4na to add back to her shows is playing instruments. “Yayo” with the guitar absolutely ate. She probably hasn’t played a guitar in years now, but she needs to add that back in. If she’s rusty, train/rehearse more. I don’t think most of the general public/people know she plays guitar. It would be nice to add that back in to showcase her talent and to add even more variety. 

     

    Because right now her show is a like pop show with dancers, and I don’t think that’s the right approach. It’s like a pop singer with choreography. She’s making herself look like one of those pop/rap stars with choreography which is not what she is at all.

    People change, it’s sad but it happens. She’s changed for the better too.

    Well, idk about that. It’s not a positive change. She seems more sad (as crazy as it sounds). Secluded, lonely, timid, lacking confidence. Uncoordinated, spazzing and disconnected on stage.

    Looking at the 2014 performance, you’d think that woman right there would be even wilder and freer than she was. But she ended up being more reclusive.

    I feel bad for L4na. I’ve been saying this, but she’s not taking good care of her health/voice, and it’s now catching up to her. The tone of her voice has changed. I’ve said this already, she’s been struggling to sing deeper live. She has to sing higher all the time and the tone of her head voice has changed to become not very pleasant. She’s also struggling to even finish a full verse of a song in 2024. This is probably a lungs capacity issues. In 2014, she was still smoking, but she was also in her 20s. The stamina was there because of youth. I’m watching her old performances from the last time she was at Coachella. And there was no stage fright. She was very comfortable on stage. Absolutely just vibing and really feeling her music. She sang every word to every song. No backup singers. No dancers or production. She was so natural and not awkward at all. Her movements and the way she sang were very artful and dramatic and quite beautiful. It complimented the performance. 


    Where’s the stage fright or shyness there???? Like the “Born To Die” performance there is just so captivating. Her movements, the hands, and everything. It’s like she’s performing and feeling the music and interpreting it LIVE with her gestures. No dancers, no backup singers, no back vocals, nothing. It’s just her performing. And “National Anthem”? She ate that up henny. There was no choregraphy, but she still ate that up. Just vibing to the music. She was literally walking around all over the place. Off the stage too. Just feeling the music.
     

    She sang with so more much passion and conviction even when it doesn’t sound perfect 100% of the time. She also did interesting ad-libs to songs and played with the melodies at the right spots to pique people’s interest. And she knew how to end the songs and gave each song a proper climax with her voice, gestures or with the instrumentations. She was just really vibing with her own music. You can hear it, and you can feel it. It radiates to you as a viewer as well. She’s feeling her music, and you feel it.

     

    Now fast forward to 2024, it’s very weird because it’s like it’s not the same person anymore. It’s actually shocking how much has changed. Her whole demeanor is not even the same anymore. Like even the way she walks and the way she speaks. It just seems like she’s completely disconnected to the music. She seems so lost on stage. I don’t understand. The vibes and the energy are so off. It’s so bizzare to me because she’s way more timid and insecure than she was back then in 2014. The L4na at 2024 Coachella is very similar to the L4na at that Grammy stage when T4ylor dragged her there (just standing shy at the back) and also very similar to the first MITA festival. People keep saying how she has always been a shy performer, but even the SNL performance, which wasn’t the greatest vocally (I do think part of her nerves affected her vocals there), she wasn’t timid and did not look timid at all there.

    I never understand this term, shouldn’t be the other way around, locals of a place knowing more than tourists?

    Locals meaning pedestrian. Meaning basic in taste.

     

    Locals here meaning what your neighbors are blasting. What the frats are blasting.

     

    It’s not meant to be compared to “tourists”. Th origin meaning is an insult for having basic general public taste.

    Glastonbury was great (aside from the lateness causing her to be unable to finish her set lol) but those shows were only exciting because of the possibility of performing Ocean Blvd, Blue Banisters and Chemtrails songs she hadn't before. Nothing has happened since to make this compare, they're probably gonna be cute shows though nothing more, nothing less

    No, those shows were great because her voice sounds great and the energy was giving. The setlist has similar songs, but it was sequenced much better. It’s shocking how a Coachella headlining set (which is supposed to be important and special) is worse than her average concerts. What.

    True 

     

    MITA festival had us completely slain tbh

    The first MITA show wasn’t great vocally. In fact, vocally it was very similar to Coachella. The setlist was better tho (genuine surprise that is “Flipside”). It was more varied interms of energy. Good mix of ballads and more upbeat songs.

     

    She needs to stop doing piano ballads back to back. And the ballads should be shorten not the upbeat songs lol.

    This is further proof we need her to perform at smaller venues to get the full Lana experience. We would get so many good live performances and recordings if she did a variation of concert halls and dive bars. 

    You all keep saying small venues when her Foro Sol STADIUM performance was great so was that one Canadian festival with over 115K people.

     

    Glastonbury 2023 was also really good.

    Literally lmao y’all around here are being so negative about a show that was really good

    I hope y’all eat your words and the critics/magazines/articles shower her with praise so y’all can shut up. And even if they don’t, who cares? 
     

    This is not a good thing :rip:. We don’t need smokes and mirrors.

    We gon need the press and media to drag her again. Anything to change this fvked up set list. It seems L4na doesn’t pay attention to people’s or her fan’s opinions unless it’s written by a critic or a blog piece. She loves to read those. How do you keep ignoring Cinnamon Girl and Salvatore when it’s requested at almost every show :rip:. I’m glad we got West Coast even just barely a minute of it.

     

    Also, does she not feel the silence when she performs Bartender, The Grants, etc. :rip:.

    I feel like this was such an odd setlist, she has loads of tiktok hits and she sung none of them ?

    I wish she'd stop playing it so safe with her setlist, I don't get why she's so hooked on playing the same songs she's been playing for the past 8 years

     

    Not to mention her microphone ruined half the songs :crying4:

     

    Without You as an opening was also the most bizarre idea ever?!? 

     

     

    I’m starting to think she really doesn’t know what songs are popular/ people like now. Notice how she mainly performed the singles. Yes, The Grants was a promo single not a very popular one so was Bartender (that even got a video). Pretty When You Cry is a good choice, but it’s been on the set list for years. Same with Cherry. It’s just songs she’s comfortable with and aren’t willing to change. I think she only truly knows the popular ones from BTD era when she was constantly getting plagues for that esp during that era. I don’t think she knows what the current fan favorites are.

     

    I don’t think she checked her Spotify stats or whatever. Her team seriously need to show her her top daily streamed songs. There’s definitely a disconnect.

    idk I actually felt like she was regaining her passion in the festival tour and the US shows last year and seemed to be really inspired and thankful for that around Christmas.. didn't she even say smth like she fell back in love with her job again? 

    She sounds way better on last year tour and the Christmas special than this mess. So she wasn’t lying.
