@disguttodeath please tell us that her wedding is not the secret project… It’s sort of a collab and a gag…

He did that for A&W though and also Fly Away (I know she was writing credits there). He also shared credits and song length for Tough, so yeah.

the streets are saying that there is a spoken word song on the way 

Let me tell you one thing what I have noticed all over the years here as an user and as a lurker. If Lana is about to drop a single, Eclipse has usually shared the release date details, song's length and details like one or few days before the release. I'll never forget the the shock when on a good May evening I opened Blue Banisters pre-release thread on LanaBoards to lurk and the first post I saw was Eclipse's announcement that Lana will release three singles the next day! 

The debate is over. So about that single @JinnWithin 

When the collab is a song called "Alabama Trailer Park Countryside" featuring May Jailer and Lizzy Grant 

I don't see an album dropping until April at the earliest. This is just my *personal opinion* but I think she is in the middle of -- and this album will serve to be a bit of -- a reinvention. She reached several more career peaks in 2024 and her fame is at an all time high. Other than the recent BF drama she seems pretty carefree and to be having a ton of fun with her career / in life. She got a lot off her chest with COCC, BB and OB and this new era could be a great chance for her to lean into something completely new. Kind of like when she took on the role as a baddie poet in between LFL and NFR. She should take her time with visuals and let the era breathe. If she hadn't said anything in February we wouldn't even know about Lasso. Until we get an official first single (praying it wasn't Tough) I don't think we've really kicked off the new album era. Hopefully it begins this month or October with single #1 and we can finally get a glimpse of her vision for where she wants to go next. 

I think the album is probably finished but they don't want to release it around the holiday season or rush the rollout to release it before December.
 
First single late September/early October and second single + preorder mid November for an early February release would be nice. 
 
The only counter point I see is that Gaga is releasing in February too but she's the only (relevant) Interscope girlie left other than Lana without a recent album so... they probably have both rollouts somewhat planned already so it's not too close.
 
Either way I doubt that she has two singles planned without an album in mind (Norman was an outlier... we never had to wait more than 4-5 months from lead to album)

I love that Lana associated songs like Ride, Video Games and Tough with country, then drops Blue Banisters as her describing it upon as revenge album, whilst it being her most southern/country thing she’s ever done  
So I guess I’m happy with whatever she says 
unless country really means a nikki lane feature 

If Ride is country then pink champagne is also country. That’s a good sign then

I know that she'll prove you wrong.

Just because it’s insanely dry in here let’s do a thought experiment: IF Jinnwithin is an insider and IF what they said about new music being dependent on US politics (single releasing after the debate this week; Lasso being released only if Trump loses) then that makes me believe these songs could be somewhat political. Which would…… scare me  When I type it all out though it sounds insane. 
 

She called Ride and Video Games country, are these songs horrid to your ears as well?
Source: trust me bro?

Ok here's the thing. Lana will be 39 when she releases this album and Madonna released Ray of Light when she was 39. Maybe her magnum opus is coming 

More vibes manifestation since Lana is not moving


 

Maybe @Elle hasn’t changed the thread title bc Lana told her somethin somethin when they met a few months ago 

I like the fact that despite her successes at Coechella she  does not seek to impose her name wholesale in this field which is relatively new to her.
she goes back to the fight

What I need from Lasso next year:
- Jimmy Gnecco as an interlude 
- Dolly Parton, Nikki Lane, and Holly Macve as the sole features on this album (not no man jk)
- Velvet Crowbar needs to be on this album idc
- An ambience/soundscape on songs, I need to feel immersed in this album
- Lana's old singing style (dark and heavy vocals and different funky cadences)
- Pawn Shop Blues, Fine China, My Momma ON THIS ALBUM PLEASE
- This album better be over 12 tracks; I don't want another Chemtrails. At least 13 tracks, aiming for 15 tracks
- Linda Ronstadt cover on this album, she should do 'Long Long Time' or 'Blue Bayou'
- Like Beyoncé's album, even if the sound isn't country, I need the lyrics to evoke country themes 
- She should sample other songs from her discography like she did some songs on Ocean Blvd
- VOCALS PLEASE, love Lana to literal death, but lately the vocals on her songs aren't hitting as they use to. So, I need some songs on this album to show her haters she can really sing
- Hey Blue Baby, PGICM, IMBSFBH, Stand By Your Man needs to be on this album, the ones she showcased in 2018 and 2022
- Dark americana country, with southern gothic elements, but I would really appreciate different experimental sounds on this album (ex. country trap/hip-hop)
- Don't expect the setlist to change after this album drops but she needs to put many songs from this album on the setlist, as well as more Blue Banisters and Chemtrails songs because those give the vibe for Lasso
- I NEED THIS ERA TO REMIND ME OF HER PAST!! Lately, ever since NFR!, Lana's era for her last three albums haven't been giving anything really. Ocean Blvd had fantastic photoshoots, and her tour has been really good. But I need more than that. Promote the hell out of this album until it becomes annoying. Do a proper album lineup (announcement - lead single - album announcement - second single - album teaser - album trailer - third single - album drop). Also, the music videos and photoshoots need to evoke COUNTRY COUNTRY COUNTRYY! Need horses, beers, haystacks, cowboy boots, farms, barns, wildlife, everything of such in this era. I want to be fully immersed in the country experience. And then after the album drops, interviews too. I know Lana doesn't do interviews anymore like that, but one or two is perfectly fine. I feel like the album won't do well if she doesn't promote her album. I know country is a popular genre, especially nowadays, but that doesn't mean it won't flop. Lana's fan isn't super big on country, as I've been seeing all over X and other platforms. So, she needs to promote it well to intrigue her fans, and those outside her fanbase. 
 
If Lana does this right, with a correct album lineup and features, I can see this being NFR! era, or at LEAST, Lust For Life era like. Where Lana was active and people like the album for the most part. She needs to have the right features on this album if any. Bring old country artists that everyone knows or love and introduce new country artists to the game. Or even non-country artists too! We saw that with Quavo, how Quavo fans boosted Lana's popularity more, and they began listening to other projects/singles by her. I love Lana Del Rey, and her music and hopefully she does this properly. If she does, I just know this album will be album of the year during of 2025 at the Grammy's. And if not, I'm sure in due time the album will have over 1.2 million streams.
 
All love and Lana won't see this probably or even care but yeah, I'm just bored LOL xo

If you think about it, we might get to hear one of the album's best songs as early as this month. 

yall basically want her to have her Preacher's Daughter, and I can't be mad about that 

Money Hunny is the vibe I'm claiming
