We have not seen Lana smoking a cigarette since 2018. As of last year she was vaping. I think Lana quit smoking but I’m not sure. Can anyone confirm this? What about the vaping. Is she still doing that? I would hope that she is not doing either of those things anymore. I quit smoking too, much like Lana I also smoked Parliaments. I guess we both had a preference for recessed filters! But if she did quit that’s good. She’s a vocalist and smoking is something which I would not recommend for anyone who sings. But damn, it is hard to quit!

In all honesty I think Lana is really going to embrace her folk roots and stick with folk-rock. I don’t think Lana really cares about being commercial at this point. The only thing which is commercial now is either Rap or Country music. So we know Lana won’t make a rap album. Country music? Close. Folk music? Absolutely! So I’m going with folk-rock kind of like Crosby Stills and Nash.

If Lana and Zella buy a bear and an ice cream truck then they can re-enact Borat!
-
I know. I think she is going to stick with this look too!
-
These two can take care of themselves so I wouldn’t worry.
-
Zella lives in LA. She is from Arizona but lives in LA so I assume they have been on the road together the entire time. They are good friends too.

It’s good that he’s an academy member. The academy does do a lot of important work though, especially MusiCares and the Grammy Foundation.
-
Yeah God took extra time making Lana!
-
The cover art on NFR was all done by Chuck, so maybe she painted that top part of the cover. I can’t find any names of other artists. So we can safely assume that Chuck is doing the artwork again. Maybe Joan Baez’ painting gets in there too somehow.

Did I ever tell you how one stacks the deck in a Grammy race? Did you hear about the corruption in the Recording Academy prior to this years Grammys? My father is an academy member who was actually nominated in 2004. He did vote for Lana on his ballot. However he keeps telling me that the Grammys is run by an old boys club and was not surprised by the revelations that came out in the press.
-
I’m not sure. I know it wasn’t Chuck even though she was involved with the artwork. It’s really a great cover!

Hyper Liberal industry is right! I’m Center-left and support Joe Biden. But I do think the industry has gone too far to the left and is too obsessed with political correctness. HBO put a warning label on “Gone With the Wind”, but did nothing about The Sopranos and it’s problematic portrayal of Italian Americans. Being Italian American myself I point this out. Well this is lovely artwork, but it’s not the same style as what Joan Baez does. I hope we can all be able to appreciate beautiful art no matter who it comes from.
-
Do we know who the artist is who did the cover of Lorde’s album? Gotta love that she isn’t overly obsessed with clothes!
-
Kind of a stretch though. Especially considering that Lana paved the way for Lorde. And we don't even know that painting will be the cover. It could be the back cover. Frankly, it could be the cover of the second poetry album which will come out in March 2021. Or maybe Joan Baez just loves Lana so much that she wanted to paint her.
-
Joan Baez didn't paint that cover. No one would make that leap. Many artists release albums where the cover is a painting. Doing that isn't a new concept. As I said, painting as album covers have been used for years. It was done before Lana was even born.
-
Her spoken word album drops on the 28th
-
And the car could be a rental for a music video about Sean. But enough with beating a dead horse. We should be talking about the possibility of Lana working with Joan Baez because that’s about music rather than who she is dating which is none of her business.
-
The entire deck was stacked in that Grammy race. Lana doesn’t have a team that stacks the deck. Billie took part in GrammyU as a kid, she grew up around the academy and with industry connections. Of course she won. Welcome to Hollywood! Lana is not a Hollywood insider. She is for the people. Not the establishment.
-
Agree 100%. As I said, Lana speaks for THE PEOPLE. She will win a Grammy, maybe Spoken Word Album next year. She’s got a real shot. But she will win a Grammy at some point. The Hollywood walk of Fame Star is a lot of politicking, but she could get one one day. I have been saying for the past two years that she should get a Netflix documentary!
-
So on the topic of Joan Baez knowing Lana; 1. Joan just painted Lana. This could be an album cover. 2. They performed together in Berkeley CA last year. 3. They attended an event together in 2016-17. They are huge fans of each other’s work. The question is, if they work together on this album, it is a new song or a cover of one of Joan’s or maybe a cover of some other folk song?
-
No problem! I live for music, study it. This is my idea of fun!
-
Those Joan Baez paintings she posted were lovely. I think the one of Lana could be used on the next album. Maybe as a cover or back cover. Perhaps the vinyl version. Joan is so amazing! Thrilled she is getting the Woodie Guthrie prize!
