pls don’t come for me but i think it’s kinda cringe  but as long as she’s happy then slaaay petty queen! 

Are we finally getting the studio version of Heart-Shaped Box?  Or is this record supposed to be something different? Otherwise, can the manager of leaking unreleased stuff please leak the studio version of Heart-Shaped Box? 

Jesus. I just watched her Instagram video and my heart sank. I'm still processing it, just like we all are. I do agree with many of you that it is strange that she is doing this as her new album is being rolled out.  It reminds me of an interview she did many years ago, where she was talking about her past and how she spent a lot of time volunteering and doing work to help others. I wonder if she's getting back to doing that. I also remember interview a long time ago that mentioned she was looking at possibly writing a musical or something for Broadway? I could be wrong, ultimately I just hope she's okay and that nothing tragic happened to trigger all of this. When I think back on different things she said over the years, I remember when Ultraviolence was being rolled out and she said made a statement in an interview, along the lines about how she didn't want anyone to hear it. I really do believe she struggles with Fame and all that comes with it, and now that her sister's baby has been born, maybe she's realizing that she wants to dedicate her life to other things right now. Sorry for rambling, my head is spinning right now, I just really truly hope she's okay. I was paying attention to her tone and her blinking and she definitely seemed sad in that video. Still, I'm looking forward to the new record just like everyone else is ❤

Imagine Black Bathing Suit is the trap influenced bop little sister of Summer Bummer (an over-hated amazing song btw) that perfectly transitions from the interlude in a Freak/Art Deco fashion... manifesting

I've been thinking about something for a while ... It doesn't seem strange to you that took Lana about two years or so to release records. And suddenly in a matter of 6 months we have had two albums? In BB, half are songs that we already know.
This reinforces the theory that she is going to sign for Capital Records. Perhaps to end her contract with Interscope she should release this record. The cover album has been announced for almost a year, and has not yet seen the light. This may suggest that Interscope disagreed with the project, and same with the second book of poetry.
 
Of course the timing to leave social networks is strange, just before the album. Also in this era there has been less promotion than in COCC, and there was little there. We have known everything thanks to the insiders.
It is also very strange that in the BB era we did not receive many of the vinyl versions in Europe.
 
We already know how Lana is. She was not comfortable with social networks. She uploads photos and after a few minutes delete them. I think the best thing is to take some time for herself and disconnect. Also at the beginning of the year, she said that she was going to be away from SM for a while. And she came back weeks later, and surely that will happen again. All we have to do is respect her decision and support it. 

I thought that too, the reason may be she wants less attention and people coming up to her in public so be not being on social media she is seen as less approachable or something.
Could be with her sister having the baby and her becoming an auntie she would like to take the kid out and spend time with her/him without being bothered.

I’m so fucking nervous about this 
When is she deactivating? 

Listening to Text Book this morning and reading this thread and I have some thoughts. Just a note, this might be a COMPLETE REACH but 
First, the lyrics "I guess this is really the end I've never felt jealous before this year but I'm jealous now" really hit me differently after her announcement last night. Maybe she's referencing the experience of watching her friends live a normal, fame-less life on Instagram. We know she wants privacy more than ever and is probably sick to death of the trolls commenting on her posts. Her thoughts, body, music are all open to be critiqued in the comments of her posts and I'm sure she has read some hateful things. I don't see this announcement as spur of the moment.  @lustforlife said BB is "the end of Lana Del Rey". Maybe de-activating her socials is just the first step down a road of seclusion and letting the music speak for itself. 
 
Secondly, we know Text Book starts the album. Lana said BB is about "what it was like, what happened, and what it's like now".  The lyrics "and then there was the issue of her I didn't even like myself or love the life I had"  stuck out to me. I see these lyrics as young Lizzie speaking about not liking herself or the emotionally unstable home she lived in as a young girl / teen. In some ways, the creation of the Lana Del Rey persona saved her from that life (or maybe it felt this way to her in the beginning): it brought money,  instant adoration and freedom to build a new life for herself. Years later, though, the "Lana Del Rey" name has also brought a ton of baggage: think pieces, 0 freedom or privacy, twitter hate, etc. Maybe deactivating is just a way for her to begin tearing down this image of Lana Del Rey and only letting the music shine through. I could see her being very reclusive (like Fiona Apple) and popping out for interviews once every few years. 
 
I don't think she will ever retire from music but this record is definitely a turning point for her. I'm excited to see the story she paints in BB and hoping it all comes together. 
And maybe this is just me dwelling too much on the fact that I won't get a "Lana Del Rey posted" push notification for the foreseeable future 

What if she deactivates her sm because her next song will be controversial 

No, but it will be hard for us. Her managers rarely to never post about her. Y'all never trust insiders, until Lana says so herself (and even then, we can't trust her) and now she's gone...
It's really over for us

a dream 

RIP Ben's inbox

i really think that's a good idea. or perhaps she couldmake her own forum site or forum category on her lanadelrey.com website where she updates us with texts and cute photos ans selphies

If she did an email every once in a while like Lorde I would gladly love to subscribe! But I don’t know if she would consider it. If anything though it’s way more beneficial, she can write long ass essays about her current life and only fans would be able to read them. 

There's something about this whole thing that doesn't sit right with me.

It's just straight up weird like she's been posting up a storm with all this rando stuph and now she's suddenly like "see ya"
It'd be more understandable if she hadn't been posting much and was like, "I've realised that socials just aren't for me, bye" but she's been doing the opposite?
I feel like it's some sort of personal crisis. I hope she's okay

I mean i think its not the best timimg with BB coming in a month. 
Its sad but we have to respect her decision.  and yeah the video seems odd but maybe just because shes not feeling well. We just have to support her.

Watch her comeback on BTD 10th anniversary to announce BTD megadeluxe 4 disk version, AKA re-release and LG2
