Escapism

Born To Die

 
Ultraviolence

 
Honeymoon

 
Subversive

I honestly don't think anyone has an accurate idea of when anything is happening

I don't usually go into full on speculation mode (especially when we have no official information, like definite dates and what not) but if there's any truth to the supposed November/December timeline that 2 radio stations have mentioned, what would that timeline look like? Announcement in Nov, single in Dec? Could there be a an album release in January to mark the 5 year anniversary of BTD? Just a thought, please don't drag me

nnn, not for nothing but you really can't talk about melanie  when you stan for an artist who made this 
 

There's just one thing missing that could make this whole thread even messier
 

Even if Eclipse were lying he's not really gaining anything from out. If you don't beileve him just keep it to yourself unless you yourself have amy evidence

I was just wondering who which photographer took this photo and when
 

This is one of the proofs
 

i honestly hope she does some nice record releases this time around like she did with the btd/paradise era. i mean UV and HM missed out on that imo when it comes to  picture discs/7in singles type of thing.  

wow love how my alternate account is leaking iconic bops  something I could never do 

Reading 83 pages of a pre-pre-release thread like,

The UV boxset was honestly the best in terms of the pictures and aesthetics. I mean quality wise the vinyl didn't play well but it's gorgeous. Here's to hoping Neil Krug is the photographer for LDR4/5 or at least someone new!

That reminds me that I still need the Blue Jeans and National Anthem picture discs.

lets argue about something more interesting; Subversive is a dumb album name and I'd hate for Lana to name it that

Paradise is not an EP though. Interscope used the same strategy like they did with Gaga for The Fame Monster. Technically, counting the tracks, it is an LP by definiton. Interscope just sells it as an EP so the sales get added to Born To Die.
So next album is LDR5

I see this as LDR5 but don't count LDRAKA because she wasn't even REY back then. You can't buy it either, and BtD is the beginning of her current form, so btd is ldr1.
 
I count paradise as separate because it genuinely differs a lot from BTD, and has different religious themes and cutting lyrics. So Paradise is ldr2 in my eyes, even though it is just an ep.

The thing is we know by now how sellings and charts are simply based on how an artist is known and how he/she promotes their work with big budgets (just like the elections). Some big pop music stars don't even write their own music, but they have built a name that's so solid, that the name ALONE is enough so that their album reaches #1. It doesn't mean quality at all. People don't even know the songs sometimes.
For example, I remember when Lemonade was realeased, all my straight friends (who don't listen to pop music at all) knew about it, even though they didn't like Beyoncé or knew nothing about her music, but the media was so explosive about it that everyone knew about its releasing.
BTD being in the charts years for now shows that the promotion that was done by the label worked. But with the fame came a lot of suffering and Lana saw herself in a position she really didn't enjoy. I feel like her music was always somewhat intimate for her and, although she wanted to share her creations with the world, all the harassment put her in a very sad and depressing place. That's why I would prefer if she continued to stay hidden, I feel it's healthly for her, it's the way she found to keep composing and being true to herself and to the songs. Going back to exposure, big budgets and her name all over the place must be really frightening and uncomfortable after all she went through. Besides, even though UV and HM sales are very low compared to BTD, it's undeniable how richer the last two are when compared to her debut. But, as she doesn't promote and people don't know about it, it just doesn't sell. It may be even better, 'cause the fans who truly get her mind and love her sound will keep following her work and praising her, while those that just came for the beats and the bling will be gone.

even though ive said this is ldr5 before, i truly believe this is ldr4 because aka isnt even purchasable, she ignores it, and it was lana del RAY
