What if she didn’t flop on that Annie Mac interview...would they have done a better roll out?
 
It’s so weird. It’s not like the pandemic thwarted their plans either

Ever since QFTC, the tide has been against her in the US. Annie Mac interview did nothing to fight back the Lana Del Reycist memes. But also, COCC is the opposite style of the music that’s making her popular amongst that 14-21 demo (Queen of Disaster, Meet Me in the Pale Moonlight etc)

Honestly probably. I think that controversy just put her off completely as It was the first time she’s really spoke publicly since QFTC and it was just...a disaster. So I think she was probably just over it 

this is definitely her least promoted era. lana herself has only mentioned the album twice since january 11, the day she announced it. once on january 11, and once yesterday, march 15.

why would they chose to give sales to sia of all artists rn 

Hoping that reviews and feedback will encourage Lana to give trip-hop another chance 
 
Lana’s take on country music will probably be a reflection of classic country, which will always be there, I don’t think any artists today are doing their takes on that. But we are straying further from the possibility of a 60’s style, Motown-adjacent a la Thunder 

It was that stinkin bitch Selena Gomez I just know it 

my question is: realistically, why wasn't lana able to see jack to add finishing touches and perfect the album because of the pandemic? that didn't stop her before when she did a public book signing. lol, I'm only half-joking, but I do think if need be, they could've (?). still I respect her for following COVID guidelines just as I respect her for putting out an album she was "unsure" of, because it is brave to put something out so raw. I agree she could be remaining quiet because the record is so personal and she is tired of being made into a controversial headline, but I do think she's happy with the record, although uncertain of it's reception (after the album cover comments) or whether it's the best possible work she could muster at this time. of course she is happy with it, because if she felt so unhappy with it then we wouldn't be hearing it this Friday. (I'm still a COCC virgin btw - only heard the singles/official snippets/and ofc most of y'alls spoiler tags... can't contain my excitement!)
 
but no, I really do think the uncertainty of this album will turn out to be something admirable. so what if it has "outtakes" from other eras, so what the tracklist is short? that shouldn't be used as a critique of the album because the album is literally about being lost, (based on titles like NAWWAL and the Mojo interview) she said she wasn't sure where she's going next sonically right? this is a transition period. it sums up the album's theme perfectly imo. the title track Chemtrails is about uncertainty among the normality, the calm before the storm, the beauty in the chaos. considering this album's rollout has been messy and it's being put-out in the middle of a pandemic and conflicted political climate, it FITS. lana is in the eye of the hurricane, but she seems to find love in it (based on Yosemite descriptions). I feel the album is about feeling content in existentialism, contemplating things as complex as God while going to the market.
 
some people could say this album feels rushed, and I haven't heard it so I can't argue. but wouldn't that be perfectly fitting given the chaotic theme and beauty that can come out of feeling uncertain? the curiosity that drives someone to feel wanderlust is exactly the reason lana didn't change the album. it's been said in this thread a lot and I agree: lana gave us the album she wanted to give us. if she wanted to she could've halted production, delayed the release until jack and her could add dealer and other tracks, but it just wouldn't be the same album. lana has way more control than some of her fans and critics like to believe. 
 
maybe she wasn't as "quite there" sonically as she said so herself, but that just means in the next album she will be where she wants to be. it's the same reason Yosemite finally found it's home on Chemtrails. lana is always on the run with the wolves, but there's one thing for certain: she leads the pack. I for one am happy to hear the imperfections forged by jack and lana in this album, the Chemtrails looming over the idyllic country club.
 
(also: even if the theme of Chemtrails wasn't used throughout the album literally, can someone confirm if it's underlying meaning is still clear. my question is: does this album have a clear overall theme after listening and is the title a good fit? I know it's been discussed, but why or why not?)
(also also: the ben dm's are real because I saw a screen recording of them on my timeline, they even clicked on his page and his followers and scrolled and everything.)

I want somebody like Paul Epworth (who produced Black Beauty) for LDR8...
 
The fact that she still kept Rick Nowels in this album through Yosemite even though they probably didn’t have studio time together for this album...his power

What are the approximate dates for when she was writing and recording COCC? 
 

I  wonder if they'll drop more signed copies of COCC or new exclusive formats! 
 
Just in time to boost 1st week sales!

Totally agree. Maybe the album was rushed but I believe that it was meant to be released. She can focus on herself and the family now. And come back when she feels like it. 

i was worried ajay wasn’t gonna be around to react to cocc WE WON 

Ajayll just came back coccs impact

I think the album leak was the last strand for her
 


 

 

Is it me or does she seem kinda pissed off from that caption? I’m thinking that she knows the album leaked, obviously.
