The video Quavo posted has me convinced this is for Lana. Why would he release a song with country visuals? Unless Quavo is also in his country era. 

Omg this twitter Lana update acc I have notifications on for read 'Tough' as tonight and tweeted that its gonna be released tonight as a mistake... I yelped so loud when I saw that notification
I'M SO EXCITED THOUGH SHE LOOKS SO PRETTY
It's a country rap song, it's gonna be anything but generic.. have some faith!

Everyone go look at Quavo’s insta story

i’m not thinking of any one song in particular but i swear some songs are overlooked but if they were unreleased they would be huge
 
like bel air or guns and roses maybe

holy shit the way how people pay so little attention to Is This Happiness is a crime. this is one of her top best songs ever. but i also don't want it to be viral either. i want it to be in a cult status tbh

Is This Happiness/Flipside because of their availability  

Her doing a lip other than her usual nude/brown.. life changing.

I wonder if we're actually getting this album anytime soon, with it being worked on for years and Tough being recorded in February...
 

Periodddd, we can identify who it is for later-- just drop it already lol!
 
I guess thinking about it, why would Wally be handling stuff for the video for Quavo. Don't we think he'd have his own people. Hmmm, I don't know. Either way ready to hear what they've cooked.
 
I definitely think Lana would and could pull off a blend/hybrid of country and or rap/trap. I really don't see Lasso being one faceted, she's never been that type of artist lol.

Quavo posted a video at the same place where the polaroid was taken, and later a picture with some kind of country boots - I guess they're shooting 
 


 

New photo dump post - 

“It’s for Quavo” “it’s for lana”
 
IDC just release it!!!
 
I hate waiting 

wanting a cohesive country album from Lana when nikki lane would be her first choice for a coherent country feat  
I hope the song is for Lana thus it would elevate the record in terms of bops and publicity  plus a quavo feat on a country album for lana is so unhinged i luv it i luv it 

All of Lana's albums are cohesive. Cohesion in a record is not just about sound, each Lana album is beautifully crafted to take you on a specific and thoughtful journey.

Also, I'm so disgusted the U.K. voting public gave 12 points to Israel 

Can this drop already, I'm so curious to hear it

I’ll give it back when I get there 

lana posting boobs on instagram just to distract us from wally's post omg 

I think it’s all about the listening experience (which differs for everyone) and to me a cohesive album shows completeness, it’s an art in itself as it shows the album was well thought out 
 
it doesn’t in any way mean that the songs all have to be the same genre/soundscape or even the lyrically content be similar as long as it flows well, I mean CC showed that and OB to me was very cohesive as it was a journey and it was well segmented. This is where interludes can really step in and help with cohesion and the story of the record, I’m all for interludes!
 
What I don’t want is an album akin to putting her music on shuffle and going from trap beats to steel drum guitars to a piano ballad to hip hop without any sense of flow or direction

I respectfully think we overstate/exacerbate LFL’s supposed lack of cohesion. It’s a two halves record in which the first relies heavily on trap/hip hop and the second half leans onto folk/americana - the thing is both halves possess sonic elements of one another. There’s a folk sensibility in the first half of the record and some very subtle infusions of trap/hip-hop in the songs of the second half (the beats in Heroin and WTWWAWWJKD are trap). It’s really not that disjointed and the storytelling makes a good progression that ties everything together. A record like Blue Banisters is way more all over the place and abrasive.
 
Also, how much can we fault artists for our decision to play albums on shuffle? lol

Deleting what I said earlier because I’m going crazy. Reading other people’s opinions before writing my own can really influence me for some reason right now.
 
I posted before that I want a classic sounding album with no features. Some how I got really excited for the Qu4vo collab, but then I posted again that I don’t want it . I think I got really excited for it because it’s the first commercial sounding song she’s going released in ages. Then, I realized I don’t know if I want commercial sounding songs (because it could end up sounding generic and gimmicky with the country rap thing), and I actually don’t want features on the album because her lastest album was already full of features.
 
I guess I’m open to features even though I prefer the album to have no features. I can’t really change what’s happening right now, so it’s better to just get exicted for it. I’m also open to her doing a more commercial sound because it is unexpected coming from Ocean Blvd that’s why I was excited for it. Something different is always good, especially from your last release. I just have some worries with the “commercial” sound. I will remain cautiously optimistic.

I still hope that the album is concise, even with the features. 11–12 tracks. I just don’t want another long album loaded with features and interludes like OB and LFL. We don’t want another album like that again consecutively.
 

Wait a minute (this may be very delulu but hear me out) I know we've already made the out of the black into the blue -> out of the blue into the black connection with her Coachella outfits. Last track of LFL get free ends with her singing out of the black into the blue.
 
Maybe this is another sign Lasso will be LFL pt 2? 
 
Watching the second weekend back, her outfit change into that country themed black leather dress with the fringe, rhinestones, and belt buckle makes me think it's her way of bridging LFL & Lasso. If she started making this album in 2019~ (right after NFR?) maybe it was supposed to be LFL -> NFR -> Lasso and NFR was the transition? In the NFR title track, she ends the song with "you make me blue" and keeps singing blue as it ends.
 
She's been posting a ton of LFL related things on insta in the last 6 or so months. In December, she posted an insta pic of the Sunday Times magazine shoot and used Heroin. In a post at the end of December, she includes a vid of her performing 13 beaches with the original clip used in the intro. In that same post, she includes a video using blinding lights by The Weeknd. On new years day, she hinted on insta she was headlining coachella using her song coachella, woodstock. In February, she posts that throwback pic of her during the LFL era in the blue short sleeve top.
 
I think Lasso is the darker, younger country sister to LFL 

it’s giving this
 

this mv needs to serve national anthem mv i don’t care we just need that kind of cultural reset
