If people associate you with the neo-Nazis on Capitol Hill, you should speak up against it. Like when white supremacists embraced Taylor Swift and she was silent about it, it was concerning
 
I think she saw that article when it first came out and saved it for when she (rather unexpectedly) got critical acclaim for COCC.

Lana’s “best friend” is Chuck when all is said and done. And Chuck is much more socially conscious, so I hope Chuck levels things with her. 
 
On her Instagram Live for the chemtrails promo, she mentioned that she made a lot of “personal strides” in the past year. She never reveals a lot so I’m hoping that these strides aren’t like her poetry book but also some introspection. In a way, if Lana stays in her lane of “white girl sad music,” it will be ok.

The whole album is about the burden of fame, but this song is the only one that talks about her singing (in the street). This reminds me of the Rolling Stone interview she did with Elton John where she reminisced that there was a freedom starting out as a musician because it was fun, nobody really judged you. 
 
In her Lizzy Grant, early BTD days, she leaned into the whole image of a tragic, Lolita/Marilyn Monroe type figure. Critics thought it was a persona, and the backlash was intense, perhaps in a white hot way. But her fixation with these women is tied to how she thought it was thrilling to be the object of the male gaze. I read “look how I do this/ look how I got this” as a subversion of the fragile female trope because she turns it into a performance that she controls. 
 
Lana is older now. She probably looks back at these days wistfully, and maybe she still wishes she could tap into that although it’s no longer part of her current singer-songwriter “street cred.” Maybe that’s what QFTC was about, wishing she could reclaim a freedom of performance that was taken away from her. 
 
But this song was like done in one take, so this could be an over analysis or projection

No, but I really hope this album has a strong production with some heavy drums.
I've HAD it with Jack's watered-down 4 chords beat 

Poor Jack has to produce the song where she drags Lorde

You can hear her smiling when she sings “Court almost burned down my home”

besides nikki lane, who else are her country music friends
 
ETA: Chemtrails over the Country Club with that cover already feels like an album title about a close circle of country music friends to me. 

She’s working on a longer form version of that article 
 
I suppose you can make that argument before COCC was released, there was cultural appropriation with like Florida Kilos or any trap-inspired music, but I can’t wait to read how she’s gonna reach with the songs on COCC.

The think piece is gonna include how Lana appropriated culture by going to an Afro-Caribbean two-step
 
when you read the lyrics, it includes Joan Baez but if you’re thick-headed enough, you won’t catch it 

This is her villain arc, one she's been building up to for a long time. Ramble incoming
 

Okay let‘s not steep as low as attacking some writer on twitter. Her article was horrible and twitter stans are already on there, giving her shit again and embarrassing themselves. 
However I don’t see why she thinks it’s necessary to write a longer article lmao
What is she going to add? How LDR called someone Art Deco, when she didn’t even live during that period?

My problem with it is that she seems to have taken it out of context. I'm not saying that she's never received unfair criticism, but the part she underlined was not what Harper's was saying. The entire sentence is, "nobody had significantly criticised Lala for "including" people of colour in her upcoming album" and that's true. Very few people (if any) were criticising her album cover because it lacked POC; they were criticising it for being an IG-esque picture of her and her friends. Yes, there probably were some leftover comments from QftC but I didn't see anyone saying "Oh my. There are no POC on this album cover!" anywhere when she posted the album cover (if anyone else did, please quote me).
And the comment about Capital (sic) Hill was also really bizarre, because nobody was saying anything about that, either.
So basically, she took the general "she's racist/MAGA/trump supporter" comments directed at her after QftC and then acted like people were applying that to her album and its cover, when that simply wasn't the case. SHE made that association, no one else.
And before anyone's all oH bUt sHe'S dEfeNsIvE bEcAuSe It'S aLl sO uNfAir, taking article statements out of context like she did today is not the way to solve the problem.

Can we all stop calling a woman mentally instable when she's just exposing her feelings? This screams misogyny
 
I don't agree with her rants and I think that she should put this energy into her music instead of social media, but it's valid. I just wish she had a PR team to post on her professional IG so she could move her rants to a spam account. Or formulate better for the Gods sake. 
 
Even though I have this opinion, her feelings are still valid and real. Artists barely have one original point of view nowadays. Everyone is scared of the backlash from cancel culture
