    Crazy Husband Stealer, I somewhat agree. That comment has always sounded like a dig at her label.

    I think she was pissed that they tried to block the releases of songs she was passionate about. They cockblocked the release of Cola before and they hated Dan A.'s version of West Coast (and his version of the album in general), hence the release of the demo as "radio mix".


    Instead, they pushed for Paul Epworth to be the main producer of the album. They also wanted Black Beauty as a single. Lana, as petty as she was at that point, scrapped Black Beauty from the tracklist and banished it onto the deluxe version. I think this was the only instance where she willingly excluded certain songs from "infesting" the main album and she definitely did it out of spite. This is probably why she said what she said about deluxe versions. Interscope released Black Beauty as the ONLY other proper single aside from West Coast without her consent, I believe.

     

    Lana gave up on the era when they kept her from releasing the Ultraviolence video and did no further promotion. I also think that the same video was going to feature Brooklyn Baby. (Both songs had entire remix EPs commissioned that were scrapped almost entirely and the Ultraviolence video is split into two parts.)

     

    She was highkey depressed at that point and probably negotiated a “minimal promo" deal with her label and her managers' help. That’s why the Honeymoon era was so lowkey and why she got slightly chubby at that time. She was on anti-depressants and definitely asked to take a bit of a break from touring and shooting videos (all of the videos were recycled or rather simplistic without too much going on essentially). With Lust for Life it seems she got back on track again, mentally and was very eager to do more promo again. The album's reception was probably what threw her off again.

    Ok, I just it was filmed at the same time as LMLYLAW live performance 

    It is possible that it wasn’t filmed for a song from Blue Banisters and just recycled for the album trailer but I doubt she would film something like that JUST as a trailer for an album she allegedly didn’t want anyone to hear. 😂 

    It may have been a video for Tulsa Jesus Freak or actually LMLYLAW.

    Wasn’t there a rumor that it wasn’t a full music video and just an album trailer 

     

    QFTC highkey fucked up COTCC and BB

    I will forever be mad at how her words got twisted just because she name dropped the last few girls that had #1 hits (and happened to be black except for Ariana). She didn’t even say anything bad about them 💀

    Sadly I doubt there's much to discuss about BB's creative process.

    She said herself it was kind of a response album cause she had stuff to say and she wanted to put it out quickly so she used the new songs she had relevant to those topics and then filled in the album with unreleased tracks she liked and/or made sense sonically. That's also probably why she randomly released the triple singles months in advance.

     

    Is there any other confirmed outtake other than RCS? (that was a Chemtrails outtake anyway)

    Honestly, I think that was just a very chaotic time for her. I wouldn’t be surprised if we end up hearing more about that album's creative process cause she definitely worked with Clayton on some stuff too. There is an entire music video (with him) that remains unreleased. I think she had things planned at first but the circumstances (her engagement failing, QFTC) made her change her mind about where to go with that album.

    when it comes out that there was actually a whole scrapped album of unleaked songs in between nfr and cotcc called "wanderlust" recorded during quarantine then what

    Actually, Wanderlust captures the vibe of the album more than any of the other album titles. Didn’t she say herself that the album was inspired by her travelling through the midwest while touring NFR?

    Truly her Republican era. :awkney:

    Honeymoon was her most interesting era, older fans know that. It was her last time being an enigma, yet at the same time she was extremely revealing. From this thread it was also the first album to not include older material. Obviously there are more songs she recorded for Honeymoon, but I can't help but to think she was heavily inspired by her Lizzy era with posting from her Taylor Secman account because that was a Lizzy era moniker on her Twitter. 

    I am an older fan, although I never bothered to sign up until recently and quite frankly… that era was BORING as hell.

    No tour, only few performances (most of the album remains never performed) and the only proper original video we go was High By the Beach and even that video was kinda shit (like the song).


    The best thing was the album photoshoot. That’s about it.


  8. I don’t hate this album nearly as much as I used to anymore but I hate the musical direction for future albums that it initiated. It was definitely an interesting change of sound and aesthetics for her looking back and earned her a lot of acclaim (unfortunately overshadowed by QFTC).

     

    I still believe that Lana could and should really surprise us with an entirely new (or maybe old) production. Her unreleased catalogue is getting so hyped and if she used that hype to go back to the soundscape of Queen of Disaster, MMITPM, Dangerous Girl, Driving in Cars… now that could make her a massive trendsetter again. No one is currently doing that type of music right now but TikTok would EAT THAT SHIT UP.

     

    It's obviously never gonna happen cause she is kinda too old to be making that type of music but a gay can dream…

    it clearly was stop with that narrative! they were 2 absolutely different projects from the very start

     

    Except, the only source you have for this is metadata (which can easily be manipulated) and scribbles on a note book that can pretty much mean anything.

     

    We do know, however, that the film TROPICO (including Bel Air and Gods and Monsters) was already decided on in 2012 as per Lana herself. There is no solid evidence for any of this Tropico album nonsense. It's an urban myth.

    But Lanz said she already had a movie in mind that concludes with bel air gods and body electric as early as november 2012

    that og bel air mv

    im pretty sure that was a different concepr and tropico and paradise were supposed deffirent project from the start but then she merged them

    It wasn't because shortly before that interview was released, the Bel Air visual dropped with the TROPICO film announcement and that was in 2012.

     

    I am still certain that the title "TROPICO" for the songs recorded at that time was a placeholder title because the songs she compiled for the record on that notebook may have tied in with the spiritual theme she had worked out for the film. She probably wanted the album to be somewhat of a continuation or elaboration on the story told in that film. A lot of the songs listed on that notebook have spiritual themes or deal with redemption in a way. I think she used that title because it best captured the vibe or the theme she had in mind for the then untitled second album.

    used to think body electric was a bit haunting

    If I'm being serious, I'd say that this is her most "scary" song from a studio album.

     

    - Body Electric

    - Carmen

    - Pretty When You Cry

    - Summer Bummer
