"Regardless of anyone’s view on Lana Del Rey’s music, whether you like it or not, there is no way to deny that it has been a pioneering and industry-changing force. Without her, there would be no Boygenius to win ‘Best Alternative Album’, and no Billie Eilish to win ‘Song of the Year’. There would be no Gracie Abrams, The Last Dinner Party, Katie Gregson-Macleod or Etta Marcus, with a whole lineage of exciting up-and-coming names coming directly from the Del Rey school of music.
 
Regardless of opinions, there is no reason why an artist as defining and vital as Lana Del Rey should be snubbed so routinely while her impact is so visibly on display at every ceremony." - Far Out Magazine

What happened yesterday keeps disgusting me. 

WAITTTT I just thought of something. Imagine if Lana takes some of her OLD old unreleased stuff, like the more soulful and folky songs, and reworks them so they have more of a country twist. Next to me, my momma (although I doubt she’d do that one lol), FORDHAM ROAD… I would die 

Omg sorry 😭 I couldn’t remember the rules around it. I saw it posted in another thread so I thought it must be okay lmfao
 

It sounds like a new leaked snippet that’s tagged with someone saying #scammys repeatedly over it
 
I can only make out a few words

COUNTRY PSYCHEDELIC YES
 
also 18 songs… imagine… I could die happy

iirc candy necklace was the only one that wasn’t leaked, oddly 

Lots of the leaks just before OB were released last year were tagged tbf (Rosemead exclusive baby)

i love on our way 

I agree with you so much!! I feel like it would probably be so refreshing and relaxing as well for Lana considering how complex and emotionally devastating OB was. Also agree so much on the trap part… let’s have some country trap!! I want to feel like I’m hooking up with a 70 year old man in a New Orleans dive bar

on our way would work really well in a country rework just saying

not sure if this is an unpopular opinion, but i am SO excited for a simple album like lasso. chemtrails was the perfect peaceful album, and i think this one might be similar. after how heavy ocean blvd was i actually don’t want anything grand or groundbreaking. my only hope is that the guitar will be loud and clear throughout the album, and that we’ll get some unexpected ‘fun’ songs like we always do on her albums; i smell 1-2 songs with trap in them lol. 
 
i really hope this will come out september! the fact that she said that month specifically, maybe means they’re wrapping up the album this month and vinyls will be pressed until the release date. lana always changes shit last minute tho  however because this has been worked on for the past 4 years, things should be more decisive this time. 

They were some heartful fucks being given. Well said. 

I know I'm late to this but I'm so so angry. Any song on Midnights does not hold a candle to Fingertips, Kintsugi, DYKTTATUOB, etc. Ocean Boulevard is a generation-defining album and I'm so sick of Lana being belittled by condescending critics who make no effort to understand her artistry. Album of the year is supposedly judged by artistic excellence yet Lana pushed the boundaries with every aspect of this album and is consistently ignored while Taylor made 1989 2.0 and was rewarded. If any other artist besides Miley won AOTY I would've been less upset, but there's absolutely no reason for Taylor to win besides the Grammy's knowing she would announce something and give them more views.
Not only that, but Lana should've 100% won SOTY. A&W is one of if not her best song, and it sweeps every other song that was nominated. I know I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up but literally everyone has begun to recognize Lana as the visionary she is, even Fantano admitted he was wrong about her music, except the Grammys.
Maybe next year Lasso will be nominated and she'll beat out Taylor's new album, but I think she should stop submitting. The Grammys need her, she doesn't need them. The fact that their critics still judge her by her SNL performance shows that they don't care about music.
 

Piece by piece...... 

ocean blvd songs leaked before its release?, i wasn't that active in the fandom at that time, that's kind of a mean thing to do against lana 

literally every ocean Blvd snippet 

I love those songs and I feel like they fit well with the Henry, come on snippet so I really hope they're on Lasso! 

Help what is going on? We need Henry Come On released as a single and not things l-wording seven months before the release
