everything in this world is "Taylor shade" to them. Im tired of them, these people are the disgrace of internet culture

In case you are wondering how deeply online some people are, there is a group of Taylor fans that are on Twitter etc claiming this post is 'Taylor Shade' because there's some obscure thing going on about Taylor not using spice or not using the right spices or something, as though Lana walks around the supermarket thinking about Taylor

sorry if this is the wrong topic thread, please move it mods...
Larry Jackson speaks about getting Lana Del Rey on SNL & signing her to Interscope!
https://open.spotify.com/episode/7F3Xomh64jZibxbLuOhXuw?si=ca2f46102e8c4f75
Larry speaks about A&R and how amazing Lana Del Rey is! he helped sign her to Interscope and get her the SNL deal. calls her initially as "ah Lizzy"
Larry and his pal John Ehmann were fired from SONY Music. John Ehmann said Larry should listen to a demo called "Diet Mtn Dew" by an artist named Lana, who Sony just passed on.
Larry loved it!
says he met Lana 2 months after he himself moved to Los Angeles. she came in looking like she had walked off the set of the BTD album cover! Lol. he was enthralled by her.
Says the night before she signed w/Interscope, she got a deal from SONY UK for 2 times as much money, and she said No! and signed the next day with Interscope !!!! (our queen)
Larrys says lana means so much to him and Interscope. He says at that point he was willing to help her do anything to help her artistic vision come to life (especially understanding that 2 times amount Sony offered was a big deal to a artist trying to make ends meet)
He says she told him she wanted to be "Gangsta Nancy Sinatra" and he was sold! Ed/Ben/Lana signed officially and INterescope helped them make BTD with Emile Haynie and Justin Parker.
BTD cost only $183,000.
says he got an idea to write a letter to Jimmy Iovine to send to Lorne Michael of SNL about getting Lana on.
Discussed how being an A&R is about believing in the vision when no one else does. Says the Brian Williams article was very hurtful to him and to lana (bc at the time Brian Williams was a respected journalist - which is funny now because he got fired and lost journalistic integrity for fabricating a story about jumping out of a plane in the Iraq war in 2003 _ LOL did "did anyone else die for you")
Larry talks a bit more about how she and Chief Keef at such important musical figures who have shaped music and provided a breath of fresh air to a time of stagnant music.
Larry says he felt extremely motivated after SNL and so did Lana.
