Lana Del Rey and Quavo “Tough” - OUT NOW!
barttttender replied to rocknrollgroupie's topic in New Releases
Yeah, that's another thing. There's no way it would have won over Frozen... That song was probably the most successful one of the decade in cinema. Thanks for sharing the tutorial! Really appreciate it. I feel like I haven't been giving enough love to the posts on here. -
No doubt about it. I just hope Lana sees it that way. I also think Lana doesn't "play the game" all that well. Probably not kissing enough asses behind the scenes, not attending enough parties, and not sucking, well, enough.... Also, she's not the one to sit on the talk show couches like Taylor, Gaga, and the others. She's a bit of a recluse, and does her own thing. A dark horse if there ever was one. The funny thing is: she's got the sales and streaming numbers. Like, she's right up there with Taylor, Billie, Gaga and the other pop girlies. She's been in the game for 10 years. She's proved herself. Her albums are among the most critically acclaimed (unlike Katy Perry and others). So, they really should put their jealousy aside and pay her her dues.

Please... Not that conspiracy theory. Harvey had nothing to do with it. They would have set a precedent for Lana especially. Why would they have? Y&B didn't stand a chance. Just like the soundtrack for Black Swan didn't have a chance because it was mostly re-using and repurposing Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake. It was disqualified because it wasn't deemed "original" music for the film. It's the Academy rules. Also, it's the composer branche who decide on this yearly, not the producer branch (Weinstein). -
yeah, they really hate her. if she couldn't win alternative song with A&W, which everyone called best of the year last year, then she doesn't have a chance if she does a full album of t swift collabs. not to mention they snubbed her for ob in alternative, and nfr for best album - in the year when everyone in the world thought it was the best album. my theory is: they're just supremely jealous of her.

I wish I could like/heart the comments on this forum. For months now, whenever I'm on my laptop, I'm getting an error message. Anyone else have this issue? But fully agree with you, especially the MTV-level TikTok joke. The only thing with Y&B is that she lost the nomination on a technicality. The song needs to be written specifically for the film, not previously produced and repurposed, which was the case with Y&B. It was just a Lana song that Baz L. chose for the film, and they rejigged it. -

100%. While the Oscars have managed to maintain some level of artistic integrity and credibility by continuously shunning cheap entertainment (popcorn flicks, Adam Sandler, Marvel, DC), the Grammys have been all-in on trash music for a good while. The music industry and their advertisers, the media and the fashion machine will still find the Grammys relevant, of course. After all, it's a highly publicized event and a well-oiled machine that enough people tune into into (for the sheer spectacle of it, and to see their favorite artists perform), resulting in the sales of cars, perfume, whatever. But they have NOWHERE near the repute of the Academy. Which still, after all these years, manages to give Best Picture to arthouse films like Moonlight or foreign masterpieces like Parasite that aren't even in the English language. Personally, I'd rather Lana win an Oscar for Alice (if she goes there), or another movie later down the line. I'm absolutely fine with her never, ever winning a Grammy. Leave that to the Katie Fucking Perries of of the world. -

Yeha, but they gave "Shake It Off" a Grammy, babes. Let's get real. That whole album won a Grammy. Mozart, if he was alive today, would be second banana to that -

i'll take it. they owe her about 27 so far, so at least throw her one so she could have one. i mean, taylor swift has 14 (fourteen). the whole thing is a travesty. -

Maybe there really is beef between ldr and quavo, and this was his way to say f you. no other possible explanation for this ear brute force attack -

barttttender replied to rocknrollgroupie's topic in New Releases
What. Fresh. Hell. Wtf is that? Of all the ways you can remix this bop, this is what they go with? A 6 am drugged-out party on the coast of, like, Bulgaria where no one knows who they are or care for what they're listening to? What an embarrassment. Can't believe he uploaded it to his channel. 823 views in a day...... I don't imagine it will amass much more than that in a year. Wow. -
Whatevs i'm over it gonna sign back in when theres sth happenin
-
basically, we've now entered a pre-pre-release era. we know for a fact that an album is in plans. Is it coming soon? No. do se have a single soon? No. was lana talking about lasso when she mentioned two singles this year? Probably not, maybe she did a collab with the weekend or other folks. have we been wasting time this entire time? Yes

barttttender replied to rocknrollgroupie's topic in New Releases
i just can't imagine lana giving in to her husband's jealousy. she's too badass for that. there's got to be another reason -
the record is on hold for sho. But i doubt lana will stop making music or change her name i reckon lasso 2025, something else family/child inspired 2027.
-
so, presuming lana wasn't talking shit (again) when she was speaking to vogue, and there will be 2 more singles coming out this year, is it safe to presume that one will come out in october, and the other in december? or do we think she'll randomly drop two singles on december 30th (maybe not even then)?

So, it's hearsay? I don't believe any of this for a second. Just because Lana hid some posts, we're not deep into conspiracy theories. -

If you were in charge of LDR Essentials on iTunes?

I mean it's one of the best cuts off lfl. But "essential"? Hmm 🤔 -

barttttender replied to barttttender's topic in Lana Thoughts
Haha. Isn't it just amazing how many great songs she's put out? All these essential still don't include songs like Music to Watch Boys to, or Taco Truck, or Wild at Heart, Cruel World, etc., etc. etc. Let's just hope Lasso gives us a few big songs. Praying for another Ride. -

barttttender replied to barttttender's topic in Lana Thoughts
That is true yeah. I wish iTunes would reel it in, and instead focus on adding new hits when they pop up, i.e. Tough. Which by the way has been Quavo's biggest song on iTuens for 3 months now, but they still haven't added it to his Essentials. -
It's really so sweet. Our Lanita is finally married. I reckon she'll probably get pregnant next year (if she's not already). We'll get a boppy Lasso (hopefully), and then after that it's all family content, Fingertips, Sweet Carolina, sweet lullabies for Clementine. I'm already bored of it, but again, as long as she's happy lol.
