100% agree. The UN has announced that the death toll has reached 5,000. This is beyond belief that the world leaders have allowed this to happen, and are continuing to turn a blind eye. And don't get me started on people losing jobs, the social media algorithms reducing the visibility on pro-Palestine posts, or the Israelis messaging influencers offering them money to support the western narrative. It's crazy af. Honestly, if this has taught us anything, it's that there's a lot of power in social media, and it's become the go-to source for free speech and getting educated on a topic somewhat, and being able to offer support. It's ironic, however, that this support isn't moving anything. All those phones, all those voices, and the death toll keeps rising. The whole situation is absolutely shocking, revolting, and proves yet again what an unjust and disorderly world we live in. It's vomit-inducing.

It was their land originally. It was bad enough they lost half of it when the Brits split the state in half and gave the other half to Israel. the Palestinians should never and will never denounce their land. It's their heritage, their culture, their home. it's despicable that the world is allowing them to lose it for as long as it has.

you should absolutely drag her for it. If she signed a petition defending the Nazis against the Jews, she deserves to be dragged for it. Unfortunately, this is a similar scenario. It's a very black and white situation at this point in time. not saying Palestine is all innocent, no. But the mass extermination of Palestinians right now is basically Nazism all over.

I know. But this time she has voiced her support for Israel. Check her Insta. It's got videos of Israeli children with signs like "Free Israel". Free Israel from what? The Palestinian children who are being held hostage by Israeli terrorists in their own fucking homes on the land where their parents and grandparents used to live? It's pandering to the dumbest of Americans, who will surely lap it up. I've unfollowed Natalie (I couldn't live with myself if I hadn't). And I will unfollow Lana if she says one thing that's pro Israel.

In a nutshell, Palestinian group Hamas killed a number of innocent Israelis at a concert (about 250 Israelis). They did it because over the years, Israelis, who never had their own country before, occupied their land (Palestine) and took full control of it. Today's Israel is essentially Palestinian land taken over by Europe-fled Jews and Zionists by sheer force. All of this is available in history books, on YouTube, official UN documents, etc. To retaliate against the massacre, Israel decided to commit a genocide in the remaining Palestinian land (Gaza) and they've already bombed and slaughtered thousands, mostly women, children, sick people in hospitals, and so forth. They also cut off their electricity, water supplies, etc. leaving thousands of innocent people in the dark as they're getting bombed. Israel's aim is to expel Palestinians into the Sanai desert or into Egypt (another country that Israelis do not own but have said that Egypt has to "play ball"), so they can remove them from their own territory forever and finish their occupation, i.e. extermination. Biden and America are supporting the genocide - openly with visits to Israel, moral and financial support. They've previously funded Israel's attacks on Palestine and supported them with weapon supplies. Because it's in the interest of American Jews, of course. Now, most sane and educated celebrities like Cate Blanchett, Mark Ruffalo, Roony Mara and many others have openly come out in support of Palestine, demanding ceasefire (for the genocide to stop). Countries like Russia, Ireland, Spain, the United Arab Emirates, among others, are defending the Palestinians and some want to cut their diplomatic ties with Israel. The world of social media on a global level and protesters everywhere are asking for the same thing. Especially since there are thousands of videos and images of these mass graves in Palestine, confirming the genocide. (To spare you from seeing all this footage - think bodies of babies after explosions, mothers sreaming, doctors discovering their own family members' dead bodies at the hospital, thousands of houses turning into ash, families being wiped out, ice-cream trucks being used for body storage, reporters being killed, and so on.) On the other hand, you have Natalie Portman, Gal Gadot, Amy Schumer, Quentin Tarantino and other Jewish celebrities or Jewish aficionados, asking for the "war" to continue because the Palestinians mean nothing to them and, as the Israelis say, they're "just animals". They're advocating for the whole nation to be wiped out in plane sight. Of course, they're using the concert massacre as an excuse and spinning the story their way via the western media. But it's tough because we live in an era of social. So, it seems that Lana has - once again - shot herself in the foot, not really informing herself and educating herself enough on a topic before putting her finger in it This just proves how dizzy she is at times and that her managers and publicist let her get away with anything - as long as they get paid. I feel sorry for her, in a way, because she doesn't seem to be that smart about her career and, if she keeps this up, she will surely get cancelled one day. Lastly, before anyone who's Jewish or is misinformed comes after me, you should know that I'm a Serbian Christian Orthodox guy with no ties to Palestine, Israel or the US. What I wrote her is just pure, unbiased facts. If anyone wants to challenge me on this, let's discuss in a civilised way. But I hope you have access to Reuters and other fact-based websites. Hope this helps.

Most underrated moments on Lana's albums?
barttttender replied to barttttender's topic in Lana Thoughts
100%| that track is probably the single most underrated track of her career. it is stunning. But never gets mentioned anywhere 😩 i wish she still made songs like that. Just very positive ones another gravely underrated track. If it was me deciding, i would have made it the first single and cashed out 10 million for a ride follow up with porches and horses in the mid west -
Hey, y'all, Time to highlight some of the less appreciated moments on Lana's records. I'm just re-listening to Blue Banisters (a rare moment for me as I think it's her worst record). But Mike Dean's work with Wildflower beats is something else. Can we have a full album with just her and this style of beats, please? What are some of the moments you appreciate that aren't really talked about much?

I'm kinda thinking a duet with Adele would be be incredible. They're kind of like two sides of the same coin. With a good producer, I think this might be song of the year kinda stuff. Any takers?
-
yeah wfh, how come snow on the beach wasn't submitted? Maybe it goes through taylor's team as she's the main artist??? It'd better be in the mix since it would have a higher chance than jon batiste collabs. It also reached 4 on billboard, and broke a streaming record for a collab. oh shit, yeah 😂 good catch
-
I love these banners! 😍 interscope is spending money and it's looking great. honestly, guys, with strong record sales, strong streaming numbers, tons of high profile press, the taylor support, the highest charting song on billboard ever, the billy support, the tour's success, the artist of the decade award, the VMA for CN, the surprise huge success of say yes to heaven, the strong reviews for ob, the correct category submission, the weak competition in alt, and the overdue factor - THIS IS LANA GRAMMY YEAR. There would be an outrage if she doesn't win, and the awards would lose all their credibility (which has long been shaken anyway). Especially since there's no controversy recently and everyone's firmly on Lana's side (more then ever). The stars are aligned! She's winning at least one Grammy, and my money is on Alt album of the year. That said, i can imagine there being a surprise win with aw or ob; too, or best duet (CN). I hope she goes with a great dress (not from the mall) and slays the fuck out of this award ceremony
-
me too. We can start celebrating literally. No way are boygenius or mitsky winning this when she's outstreaming and outselling them by a huge margin. Thank god she's submitted in alt. I have some hopes for ocean boulevard the song to get a nod. They nominater nfr (the song) and this one is just as timeless and classic. less confident about aw and it's slutty aesthetics. Too contravercial for grammy
-
I reckon she'll re-release some of her old stuff (debut album or the Sparkle Jump Queen stuff) under Lana Del Rey. Because why not? Also, I don't think she'd choose to name this Sparkle Jump Queen if it wasn't about her old music - right?
-
Cola is her ultimate sexy stripper inner slut track I miss that lana. But most of all i miss the pop and hip hop lana
-
Let's face it. She's sitting on about a 100 unreleased tracks. God knows how many tracks were scrapped from OB, Chemtrails, Norman or even BB. We already know she's been to to the studio, so probably has one or two new songs. She's been working with Cass McCombs who might be cooking up things instrumentally for her - even if she's not there. If she makes one song per month, she can have a about 10-track album ready in by summer next year (counting a few tracks she could recycle and the ones she already has). But the time it's all finished mixing and pressing, we're looking at December next year or early 2025, like I said. She's never gone more than 2 years without a record so 2025 is guaranteed, and we're already at the end of 2023. So it's just a year before the next single drops. And who knows, she might be doing soundtracks, collabs, covers in between.
-
nah. It's lana. She works super fast. Late 2024 guaranteed, early 2025 latest. but i hope she releases a shorter record - will take less time to produce and press. We just had the longest album of her career. If we get another chemtrails, nobody should cry about it.
