Yes, I think Lana always is the most involved in her work (I don’t agree with the arguments I’ve read on here about Jack monopolizing the creative control over the last 2 albums) but I think he really did bring a lot of great writing out of her - as a producer/songwriting partner should! She said she wasn’t in the mood to write a new album after LFL but after she met Jack, an album was just spawned!

Aww that’s even more beautiful! Jack seems like the guy who you meet and feel comfortable with. Lana shared Hope with him. That song still scares me by how touching it is. I also think because the rollout of NFR! lasted a year we felt we no longer could get a connection to it, but it is still a very pretty album! I cried to every song when the album came out and I never had that at first listen with anything else, well, later when LiB leaked I cried. 
 

And I agree her writing was strong on NFR!, but I don’t feel she ever fails in her lyrics
 

I’m happy you’re spreading your thoughts for some of us to think about. I like NFR! And LfL and all the other albums too, for sure, but for different reasons. Some should stop hating on people who have different taste. Maybe I like strawberry more and you might like blueberry more. We all get our favorite flavor

A cover like that could be cute, meaningful and symbolic:

 

 

But with baby Lana 

[palemoonbaby 15,104]

Jack gives totally artistic freedom artist who he's working. Lana wanted 50/60s inspired album with some surfy elements- he did that. Taylor wanted cottagecore, folky songs- he did that. St. Vincent wanted go to more pop vibes- he did that. And many others. He did what artist want, not what producer or label wants.

This is disgusting… Lady Gaga is extremely talented and some of her songs are considered the greatest ever. So this aged very badly. Even Katy she has some good pop songs.  Taylor in my opinion is no better and has some awful songs…and she’s nowhere near as good as MJ not that the two are comparable. Jack should shut the fuck up

[Make me your Dream Life 87,836]

I think she should sell hollow boxes disguised as books for her merch this time around. have it decorated well with gold trim, and titled on the spine 



she could make it into a box set even that comes w a cassette or cd or something. maybe have it come w a journal or a lyric booklet/insert inside or something

and. it'll be practical as well, where u can put stuff in it, jewelry knick knacks etc. 

it's stylish, on-brand and useful. who wouldn't want that.

I guess there are also personal reasons. I‘m really not an expert, but what I‘ve read and what the me too movement has shown, is that the music industry can be very toxic- especially towards women. Jack seems to be the type of producer who gives his artists a lot of freedom and is more interested in working together than following his own vision.

Oh, I didn't think about that! It makes sense 

Anyways, why are we hating on Jack again?  We won't have another NFR! so I think we can leave him alone now

Agreed! I’m lucky in the way that I always love what Lana does and I can objectively say that her gift of writing shines through every song we’ve heard. I’m just here for the journey she’s been taking us on and I can’t wait to see where she goes <3

Katy Perry released with Teenage Dream a bonna fide pop album. And at that time Taylor‘s 1989 didn’t really stand out in the sonical landscape to compare her to MJ. If he wants to talk about great, great pop music, then Madonna is today still that icon and surpassed imo MJ long ago.
He could have simply simped for Taylor and called it a day. It’s just obnoxious to look down on other artists like that.
