If she wants to complain about how she was treated early in her career, I think that's fine. I mean she was treated awfully and even when I read reviews praising NFR, critics always have to find a way to put down BTD. However, I think she's so hyper focused on this she fails to take accountability for other things, like the QFTC. I cringe whenever she goes after people in BB, because she needs to acknowledge that her actions caused her to get "cancelled."

Kanye disses are all well and good, but I'm afraid there's an unfortunate, unintentionally problematic reading of these lyrics.
She's nostalgic for the Beach Boys.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. (Hey @Monicker!)
But the Beach Boys exemplify and are inextricably bound up with the period when rock and roll, originally a black genre, became thoroughly appropriated by white artists (*cough cough* "Surfin' USA" *cough*).
Then there's these lines which echo "So Legit" and AFFA:
The so-called "death of rock and roll", largely at the hands of rap and hip-hop, newer less-appropriated black genres, is something mostly lamented by white people.
She cites this as symptomatic of the cultural aspect of the civilizational decline she's singing about.
And who or what does she pick as the embodiment of this cultural decline?
No surprise, it's Kanye West sporting his MAGA hat over bleached blonde hair. Almost as if to say that not only has rock and roll been supplanted by rap and hip-hop, but rap and hip-hop in the degraded form of a rapper who has in some sense disappropriated his own blackness. (The blonde Kanye line reminds me a lot of that Hooper X quote analyzing Star Wars in Chasing Amy about how "Vader's beautiful black visage is sullied when he pulls off his mask to reveal a feeble, crusty old white man".)
In the next line she references David Bowie, a white guy obviously.
Don't get me wrong. I love this song and really feel the general civilizational decline she's speaking to and even some of the specific sentiments in isolation. But the way she strings them together, without any positive references to black artists and the only reference to a black artist being used as a sign of the decay, reads problematically.

4 minutes contains exactly 240 seconds.
"Lana Del Rey New Album" contains 18 letters + 4 spaces.
240 - 184 = 56
Lana is 1 person.
56 + 1 = 57
57 days from today is OCTOBER 14TH.
something regarding Lana's new album coming October 14 confirmed
