I am very happy I am not the only one hearing lemonade because I thought I was going to have a hard time convincing you guys omfg

Ultraviolence causing all this Ultraviolence

On iTunes. Yay!

you are literally being so negative like you said you didn't like it and we got it the first time. no need to keep reminding people about how much you hate it.

Oh. My. God. That was amazing. 

Cosign that. 
 
I went from 5th row to 2nd after multiple people passed out and had to be taken over the barricade by security, so I guess I got lucky? Literally had to be on my guard for pushers and shovers 24/7 and don't think I have ever been so dehydrated/in pain from shoving. I have been waiting for this foreverrr and I really questioned leaving multiple times. I don't even remember half of the concert because I was so hot/sweaty/uncomfortable/having elbows dug into my back/my side jabbed by elbows. I could barely walk after and I feel like I have never been under so much stress in my entire life I swear to god. 
 
On the bright side though I got to hold her hand for a second (while she was holding someone else's but w/e I still did) and it was super soft and she was so pretty 

<p>You fall in hard, I push away.</p>
<p>Your love, your love, our love.</p>
<p>I'm feelin' hot and on fire.</p>
<p>I guess that no one ever really made me feel that much higher.</p>
<p>Te deseo, cariño. Boy, it's you I desire.</p>
<p>Your love, your love, our love.</p>
 
I can see my sweet boy swayin', he’s crazy, y Cubano como yo, la-la. On the balcony and I’m sayin', "move baby, move baby,
I’m in love."

Or maybe because we actually like it lmao

This is an amazingly baseless overreaction

I don't understand why she would be going on a tour, especially having dates in the U.S, without having a new album out. That doesn't make sense. I am pretty sure the album is coming sooner rather than later. 

I know I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but...     
I always liked Lanaboards because people didn't act like complete assholes here compared to other forums, and I feel like in the last few months people have been PMSing all over this place, and it's not a nice development. If you enter a forum or any webpage at all with the intention of making others feel bad about their opinions or thoughts then go away. I just don't understand why some people feel the need to come across as superior dicks when they get their point across. "Haha, you don't have as much knowledge as I do. Here, let me spell it out for you in a smartass way in a condescending post that takes up a whole page. Eat it up, bitch!" Example: I don't want a fucking rant about quantum physics by my teacher if I mistakingly think 1+1=3, get it? Tell me, inform me, teach me basic math, it can even help me. But I won't take it to heart if you're leering at me in the process. 
 
Honestly, the only valid reason for roasting people on this forum is if they're being racist/homophobic/internett trolls or if they spell it Lana Del Ray. DONE.

She originally said Black Beauty will have Spanish guitars- (something like that, if not mistaken) the "snippet" we got was fandmade and the song that leaked was obviously a demo so if it's on the album I'm expecting big changes- maybe even some lyrics changing. It's all in all very beautiful .

Beyoncé is certainly no stranger to accusations of plagiarism in her videos. Considering the large number of videos comprising her eponymous visual album, it would not be surprising if some of them were less than original. Did she copy Lana Del Rey?
 
Compare the album cover design and font to a Paradise box set booklet:

With Tropico, the "Ride" video, the "Blue Velvet" promo for H&M, and the "Song of Myself" promo for L'Officiel set to the intro to "Cola", Lana released some sort of video for almost every song on Paradise. One could argue that even the idea of releasing videos for the entire album is derivative. Now let's look at those videos.
 
 
PRETTY HURTS
Much like the opening bars of "Ride", the opening bars begin with the image of Beyoncé singing into a slender microphone, wearing a mostly white dress against sparkly blue stage curtains:

 
The song's themes—eating disorders and the dark side of being a beauty queen—are straight out of "Boarding School", "Brite Lites", and "Pin-Up Galore". Indeed, here we see Mrs. Carter in Ms. Grant's short-cut meth-haired beauty queen style complete with sash accessory:

 
Beyoncé also replicates Lana's arched back & cupped hand underwater poses from the "Blue Jeans" video:

 
She not only borrows Tropico co-star Shaun Ross, but doubles down on the African albinism by casting Diandra Forrest. To top it off, Beyoncé even has the audacity to lift Lizzy's iconic trademark sequined bra:

 
 
GHOST
In "Ghost", Sasha Fierce is not herself, assuming the identity of Lana's Rosalita alter ego from her "Song of Myself" video for L'Officiel:

 
 
HAUNTED
The "Countdown" singer's video for "Haunted" begins with a hauntingly familiar countdown straight outta one of Lizzy's DIY "Gramma" videos:

 
Then in true diva style, Beyoncé makes her male servant light her cigarette for her like a little bitch like Barrie at a Lana show:

 
The whole video imitates the imitated Lynchian style of Lana's "Blue Velvet" promo for H&M complete with the requisite Doppelgangers:

 
Yet it borrows scenes from "National Anthem" & Tropico. Black guys gambling? Check.

 
Strippers giving lapdances to white businessmen? Check.

 
People in whiteface? Check.

 
Bubbles? Check.

 
Originality? ...Anyone? Bueller?
 
 
DRUNK IN LOVE
In addition to lyrics that sound like a first draft of "Brite Lites" ("Flashing lights, flashing lights, you got me faded, faded, faded"), this intoxicating concoction's potency is poured from "National Anthem", where Lana grinds on another snifter-wielding rapper, A$AP Rocky:

 
 
BLOW
The cotton candy confection of the music masks Lana-like lyrics ("Every time I close my eyes", "I'ma let you be the boss of me", "Give me that daddy long stroke" and an interlude in French) in a video easily summarized as "pin-up girls at the roller derby". We also see a close-up of a disco ball a la her DIY "Yayo" video:

 
And Beyoncé perched on the hood of a car in a fuck-me pose like Lana in the "Born to Die" video:

 
In this case, we're lucky that "Blow" doesn't Soileau. Bradley sucks.
 
 
NO ANGEL
In an inversion of Lana's "angels forever" refrain, the "Halo" songstress proclaims, "You're no angel either, baby." She asks, "Tell me do you want to ride?" Like Lana in "Ride", Beyoncé is Queen of the Gas Station, knocking off Lana's hot long curly hair and cut-off jeans look. Unlike Lana, at least she's responsible enough to only be figuratively smokin' at the pump.

 
We see chicks on the back of motorcycles:

 
Tacky word bling:

 
And pole dancers making it rain:

 
 
YONCÉ
In "Yoncé", she continues the ghetto theme, banging around with her gang of ghetto girls like Lana in Tropico:

 
Who does Beyoncé think she is to appropriate all these signifiers of ghetto culture from gangsta Nancy Sinatra? Rather uppity if you ask me.
 
 
CONTINUED...

A for effort. 

Yes, but she's not talented in anything I place any value on.  

Genuinely not trying to start anything or liven things up, I just don't know why the Kardashians inspire such a defense. 

@@maru @@Viva Can you guys just fuck already and get it out of your system?

You're right.
 
I mean, 150+ songs, sex tape, becoming famous off own merits, trashy reality show...
 

 
Sorry, I can't. There exists like a pseudo hate for Lana on this board and it is so funny. Don't worry, you don't even have to make another post, I got you covered. "Ohhh her lyrics are so bad" "Ohhhhhhhh that outfit is soOoOOOoo terrible what is she thinking" "ohHHHhHHH video games is soooo overrated it's not even a good song" "she thinks she is sooo great and she isn't even greattt lorde is bettttterrrr"
 
I mean, have your opinions, but jesus christ can we go make another Lana bashing circle jerk thread with actual legitimate points? Trying to say she's conceited by comparing her to the Kardashians is just lazy. 

By Lana? Yeah, totally, except for the fact she has like...I don't know...talent??

I hope we are not getting another Cola/Dark Paradise treatment.
