I'm so sick and tired of these kinds of narrative that these people try to attach to Lana's brand when it comes to the subject matter in her music (especially in the earlier of her career). It's always "Lana glorifying this, Lana romanticize that" whenever she sings about anything. For fuck sake, her using Lolita as a kind of symbolization never meant for "glorifying" that shit a legal love story. And both of her BTD + UV era as well - her singing about how he hit her but she felt like a kiss doesnt neccessarily she's glamorizing domestic abuse & her singing "i'm nothing without you" does not mean she's an anti-feminist. 

 

It's not LDR9 related (but kind of - since the way media falsely portrays her & take her story away from her could be what this upcoming album is about). So... Your thoughts on this?

 

 

So many think pieces such little critical thought in such think pieces.

I wonder what is the aesthetic we're getting for LDR9. Even when she doesn't really plan an "era" we get a more or less cohesive look for the album (maybe for BB it was cause she picked everything from the same MV ).

I can't stop thinking about those leaked pictures from an early NFR photoshoot that didn't make any sense at all but I lowkey love them. A random circle, the church (?) background, the silver aluminum dress, the black shades... 

I'd like something really different this time around (even though I'm okay with another photoshoot of Lana just looking classy and beautiful by Neil). I hope she picks up the witchy vibes from LFL but with an album that makes sense sonically this time

I have a hot take. Most people dont read in between the lines in lanas songs. shes always been empowered i feel by telling her story, no matter how heart breaking or honest shes been. Its obvious her music has deep emotional, sometimes very dark themes and it does resonate with a lot of damaged people or people very in tune with their emotions. I feel a lot of songs have been her way of coping and she has such artistic and diaristic ability that i feel the general public will always criticize her if they dont care to understand her lyricism. Ultraviolence for example, if you listen to the rest of the lyrics in context of the whole song, you can tell shes talking about the struggle that domestic abuse survivors often have. Feeling attached, feeling as if you need that person to survive even if you know the relationship is unhealthy. What i believe she was saying in qftc was that “shes not not a feminist” in the way that its not what people typically think when they think of feminism, but being being brutally honest about her experiences is what empowers her.
