Also I didn’t know Jon batiste was cool like that. he seems like such a genuinely lovely guy, he’s so charismatic and I really hope Lana continues to work with and be friends with him!  I feel like the style of candy necklace might be prominent on Lasso? But with a more southern gothic country sound rather than piano (think Ethel cain-ish). I really hope Jon has a collab or does some production with her on it. I love his sound and they both seem like very insightful souls

I’m so happy that there’s a prerelease thread already 
 
Lock in girlies… this one is going to be big

idk i didn't read it that way– if anything, it seemed to me (not a taylor fan tho she has some bops) like taylor benefitted from the all-time public high lana is on, a kind of cool factor (lol sounds corny but idk how else to put it) that tbh taylor is never gonna have. and most of all it just seemed like two girls having a super fun romy & michele's style night on the town during an event where both were being honored. lana and taylor both embody diff sides of the "girl next door" coin and i loved how they looked (lana all in black, taylor in white) like a cartoon version of that.

This is so true. I'm kinda shocked still how much this award show proved that no one needs these awards. 
 
I hope of they ever invite her again, she'll just reply "if you want some basic bitch, go to the Beverly center and find her." They just don't deserve her. 
 
Anyone knows what important critics said about Taylor's Midnights? I got the vinyl back then because I loved Folklore and Evermore. However, I listened to Midnights three times and then I was done with it. It didn't strike me to be the same quality as Folklore, and surely not the same quality as Tunnel... I was and am still really shocked it won over Lana's masterpiece. 
 
Well, maybe it's just like it was for Hitchcock, maybe never winning despite of nominations proves the highest quality...

Cmon now folks, we cant be sitting here all day and being sad about the grammys, coachella is coming, LDRX (11) is coming, the whole world tour is coming 

I hope next era is big. 
 
radio push, multiple music videos, actual promo!! (TV interviews/performances)
 
I’m as upset as everyone about the result of the Grammys, but I woke up realizing that she probably lost because, while she absolutely deserves every Grammy she was nominated for, she doesn’t do much. She released one video for tunnel and while she was critically acclaimed, every artist that won exposed themselves as much as possible

She’s in good company at least 
 
also love Jay Z .. king shit fr

I love that Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Jay-Z all basically said fuck the grammys on stage

I'm really disappointed because, just like most of you guys, I was so confident she was taking home at least one award. I know it's a competition and I don't want Lana to be a victim but this is all so unfair. Everyone was getting their awards, and nothing for Lana? Who was second best selling woman in the world, even more than the people she lost against? Who had one of the most monumental, critically applauded albums of the 2020s? Who didn't stop making the news for her magnetic performances at some of the most important festivals in the world? Who had the most talked-about album of the entire year? 
 
Midnights was the Best Pop Vocal Album, why give it the AOTY too? What Was I Made For won Best Song Written for Visual Media, the category it totally deserved as it was, well, the best song written for visual media of the bunch? How does that song reflect 2023 as Song of the Year, and not A&W with its actually thought-provoking lyrics?
 
Boygenius for Best Alternative Music Album; I know The Record was acclaimed too, but in what world Ocean Blvd wasn't the alternative album of the year? The one that's actaully left-field, deeply conceptual, with multiple sounds, instruments, dynamics and lyrics that actually represent the alternative side of music; topics that aren't talked about, that are feared by most, and not as explored as they should. Why give This Is Why Best Alternative Song, when its parent album won Best Rock Album? Couldn't they, really, give anything to Lana?
 
If this is a popularity contest, yes they all deserved... Miley, SZA and everyone else; but 2023 was undoubtedly Lana's popularity peak, and it only seems to rise. How, seriously how wasn't she awarded for that? What does she have to do to have this level of mainstream recognition? She doesn't need it, of course, as she's a critic darling, a festival darling, a GP darling... everyone loves her. She hasn't reached the tip of the "music industry" iceberg, but does she really need to? Prime TV, the Grammys, the Oscars... maybe her fate really is to be a trailblazer, watch all of her disciples come and go, grab the gold and the applause, but she will remain strong and influential, discussed and forever relevant.
 
I love you Lana, and I love you Ocean Blvd; others are thankful for seeing their favorite artists reach #1 and undeservedly break Grammy records; I personally am thankful for experiencing the music, for being part of this global movement that is Lana Del Rey, driven by her pure talent and timeless songwriting.
 
By the way, she looked breathtaking.
 

all i know is that she will always come back stronger than the last time. UV, NFR, OB are prime examples. let's manifest that with LASSO era

her hairstylist called the look “vintage goth coquette” i think

I'm loving her look more and more. It's like Honeymoon if it was goth

I have to say I do really like the fact that Taylor brought her up on stage and shouted her out and it’s really nice that she’s always paying homage to her and respecting her. You can tell she genuinely adores Lana. Also the hair fixing moment and them holding hands was just
