Sorry, but this album was a pile of.. A massive disappointment. I'm still traumatized by that one song that sounds like a trashy Eurovision song. It's not that I had high expectations - I just expected a decent record. Yet it seems that this album is completely flopping as it should be. If I were Dua I'd be embarrassed and hit the studio big time - especially since she''s dropped it between Cowboy Carter and HMHAS - two very strong record by artists who have obviously put in a lot more effort, not to mention have more talent in the first place. This Dua era is best forgotten asap.

Maybe sportscruiser is having drinks with her as we speak, getting the full scoop, down to every last lyric and production choice.

Go get that tea! You and I butted heads a few time, but bring some Lasso tea, and I'll be your slave forever lmao

Realistically, Charlie XCX could only dream of having the kind of success Billie has. I don't know what else to tell you.

Worked really well for Barbie, though. Would work really well for any video game adaptation or, like, another doll-to-screen adaptation. The Sims movie.... But that's where my interest in this artist stops.

Her music sounds like literal noise to me. Like a trashy soundtrack to a dumb chase video game. Gave Brat a shot after glowing review from Pitchfork and gave up on song 3. How on earth did this trash get an 8, while Billie Ellish got a 6? Time for me to stop reading Pitchfork

but quavo just dropped a single (clear the smoke). that's it. That's the quavo single for june. He aint gon' drop another one collab or no collab. maybe it's the first single off a new album and the lana track will be the second single in july

omg the level of delulu

I mean, tomorrow will be 28 days or so since the little teaser we got, and it's Friday. It's not outside the realm of possibilities that the single would drop. Especially since Billie is done with her rollout. A month is more than enough to edit a 3 minute music video. But yeah, with the way things are, I doubt this will happen.

As I've said multiple times on this forum, it's pretty darn obvious that the album is not coming out this year. We're mid year already and there are no official confirmations, no singles, no proper teasers, no insider scoop. All we have is a throwaway line at an Awards Ceremony, which Lana herself has backtracked on. The only thing we can hope for is the Quavo song since we already know it's registered and an MV is underway. But even that she can decide to drop next year if it happens to be part of Lasso.

Really? I think 3 minute is perfect. Lana has over a 100 of 5-minute songs, while she only has like 3 that are at a good bop run-time, the two being Doin' Time and White Mustang. Most pop songs that get radio play or end up on Billboard nowadays are 3 minutes or lower. To release this collab is a very strategic move on her part, that much is obvious. I feel like she's tired of not charting at all with her last three albums (her last album track that charted was Doin' Time in 2019), and she's back with a vengance.

Her team sucks though - we've known this for a while. They haven't pulled out a decent album rollout since, what, NFR?

Reminder: we still have no idea if Tough even is on the album. It could be a one-off collab that has nothing to do with either of their records. I'm hoping that they collabed at random, and she liked the track, and decided to add it to Lasso last minute. Kind of like when she realised Doin' Time is a hit and added it to NFR even though it was done for a film, and it's a cover, and it's not even the same producer. A bop + collab with an MV would be a fantastic way to usher in a new era. A standard lead-up to an album and something she hasn't done since, well, NFR. I agree that she's unclear about the genre, though. And it's exactly this lack of clarity that's making me think the album is still WIP and none of these things are really coming until March 2025. Realistically, albums need a lot of time to be produced, mastered, etc. And this woman doesn't even know "where it's going" yet! Let's not be delulu and think that it's finished.

I kinda want Lana to postpone Lasso and rework it, and in the meanwhile drop a hip-hop/R'n'b masterpiece. Quavo collabs, The Weeknd, a little bit of Frank Ocean, some Playboi Karti / ASAP Rocky in the mix, a bit of Billie... Damn, that Quavo collab better fucking drop soon.

ok thanks. I still feel this is dropping soonish. Like next too weeks It's coming to summer and that is the time to drop a lil' bop

Huh? Didn't understand anything you said.

A quavo x lana EP ala Paradise would save us all. Also, in 6 days, it'll have been a full month since the teaser. So, I think we can officially start hyping ourselves up.

The thing that I don't get is that she's already said "The music industry is going cuntry. We're going country." So, if she KNEW that everyone is doing country, why is she now all like "and then three other big pop acts announced their country albums, so I dunno know what's gonna happen with Lasso." Yes, gurl, didn't you know that already? Is she just afraid of Lasso not being on par with those other records? I don't get it.

Yeah, the stream is live! It was soo good the whole thing! European crowd just knows how to appreciate Lanita. The US crowd was dead. This is how you do LANA, Americans! Ffs, live it up.. https://youtu.be/EryAtHj3xew?si=Qtd0WxesGd87biR-

even i agree she needs to retire that song asap. 5 years of it enough. No one liked it that much even in the nfr era, sheesh. Let it go Do say yes to heaven instead ffs

It's coming to a month since we first heard about this. Hopefully, this drops in the coming week. Maybe next Friday or the Friday after that.

never seen any of these. But seems apt for this collab excited to see lana back in her hip hop zone properly - for the first time since lfl

A good few years ago, she was giving a radio interview in the UK. She'd just walked into the studio and the talk show host made a joke along the lines of, "Oh-oh, Lana's just pulled out a giant dildo out of her bag," and Lana responded with: "That's because I knew you were gonna be here."

This thread is dead.... It was more fun when we were all delulu.

Who's the director? The post is appearing in Spanish for me some reason.
