imo DYKTTATUOB as an album is far superior to NFR, musically and lyrically
BUT
the thing with NFR is that the era itself was massive! the rollout was great, the music videos altough some being simple, were good and well received (emphasis on videos, plural), the music seemed like nothing lana had ever done before, it had so much popularity! i think that's what holds NFR at such high standard for a lot of people, it's not just the music, it's the nostalgia of it all
not saying this era is bad at all, we got some amazing photoshoots (Neil ), cute merch, so many cds/vinyl variants, lana is engaging with fans so much more, but there's still something missing and i believe it's the music videos (i'm looking at you CN, patiently waiting )
