What happened?

These lyrics are so eerie that they're even darker than songs from AKA or UV. That is some concious poetry here!

For those interested, from Wikipedia:

Lana was definitely in her true crime podcast era in 2022 when she created Candy Necklace (Black Dahlia) and Zodiac (Gilgo Four)

When Lana's computer got robbed in October 2022, she said that there won't be a new album anytime soon, but yet 5 months later, in March 2023, she released Ocean Blvd album. On February 1st, she announced new album Lasso. Five months later there isn't even a lead single released yet. Well, we've got Tough but it's still unclear who's song it is or on who's album it belongs to.

Happy Lust For Life release month!

This song reminds me lowkey of Lana's unreleased songs from 2010-2011. It's so bittersweet. The strings and the mood. I can also imagine Nostalghia's vocals over this!

:dance5:

tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather boots like the blue-collar, red-dirt attitude like a thirty-eight made out of brass tough like the stuff in your grandpa's glass life's gonna do what it does Sure as the good lords up above i'm cut like a diamond shining in the rough

I saw this on Instagram and I thought it was fake and I googled it and I'm screaming, it's real The tags are also killing me The Cut is really a one inspired magazine! https://www.thecut.com/2014/09/self-proclaimed-gangsta-shops-with-her-parents.html

The song is available for pre-save in streaming services!

I wonder if the MV has like an interlude, intro/outro like in Arcadia with The Trio or White Mustang with that trumpet music (although they put the music there to fill the video) or a monologue like in Ride or National Anthem. Or have behind the scenes scenes like in Candy Necklace

Maybe it samples Blink? Wasn't Blink co-written by Clay?

We're having a whole new song less than in a week and we're still talking about leaks, nothing against it but it's just so funny how leak-obsessed we are

Tough slander before the song is out Weren't y'all happy that she's doing this kind of sound again and didn't you say before how such a bop it is?

I do think it will have a certain success after I read now about Quavo's solo/duet chart successes. I'm sure it will be guaranteed that it is going to be viral on TikTok tho

When it's a collab album

Since we're talking about Stupid Love, I remember when I listened to it for the first time and I was like omfg Butterflies pt 2 sample! I think I have listened to Stupid Love like once or twice, so I can't really remember that song besides that certain part which was similar to Butterflies 2 ("sicko psycho sicko psycho" part). But about Katy, I don't like Woman's World but I don't know why but I have a feeling that there will be at least one good song like hit level song from the new album. Maybe I'm just delusional lol

Then we might be in for an actual hit hit

I don't think it will be a chart hit (and to be honest I have really never cared about charts) but I hope I'm proven wrong. Has Quavo's songs charted? Because I don't think that it will be bigger than Say Yes To Heaven or Love or High By The Beach. Idk, the promo has been weird. But has Quavo charted solo, like without Migos?

Where did it even come from?

What day is it out though 3rd or 4th?

The chemistry is chemming, their vibes are so hot

I'm excited for the song but this teasing and announcement was her WORST so far. I know that her single teases aren't that professional but this was not smooth. Worse than the way how The Greatest/FIILY were announced and released (it had an awful glitch release in streaming platforms) because this song has been teased for almost 2 months. Even COTCC and White Dress releases went smoothly than this. Most of her single releases for GP and fans outside LB (because you know...insiders have usually teased us beforehand) has been more spontaneous releases like Let Me Love You or A&W. I do think that the song will be great but it's going to be a hell if her other new singles will be announced and released like this... Who leaked?
