It was Rick Nowels who added life to her music by giving it much fuller and finished-sounding production. Rick made her sound both human and elegant, something Jack Antonoff failed to do! Not surprised people in this thread appreciate this fact. Expand So true bestie 7

Expand I would love a late June/July single and some mags/hype then a September release. Maybe another single just before drop. A quick little pleasant rollout ala Honeymoon. 6

Also I still think it's kinda weird that they dropped BB Digital & Physicals like one or two weeks apart, they could have waited to drop both together since there was not a long period of time between them. My inner Delulu thinks that they maybe were carefully testing out how things will play out with the dumb new billboard rule & a digital drop Expand I think it was the plan all along, for both digital and physical copies to be released the same day, but, like I said a couple of times, vinyl plants can’t supply demand. There are delays for everyone. FJM’s latest should have been out in February and got released two months later, Beach House vinyls in Europe were very rare and scarce to come by. There is some new hype around Lana on Spotify at the moment and maybe a digital release could be possible after all. 5

Jack added a lot of nuance to Lana's sound. Expand There's plenty of generic and soulless music out there... with dated vocal distortion, caked-on production and generic drum loops. You'll be fine.

West Coast Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 I'm fully convinced that there are people who became Lana stans overnight with NFR, who disregard everything she's done prior and will do after. An interesting POV to say the least. 17
GeminiLanaFan Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 When I read this morning that she started following Rick on her HM account, my mind went immediately to an announcement, where she’ll tag the producers of the song / album… (call me delulu) 16
Venice Peach Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 So Ben went from "music in the works" to "music incoming" to "album coming soon" in just 2 weeks so at least we know now that we are not getting another NFR with random singles without an album in sight a year early. The fact that he specifically said album has to mean that it's done (so the vinyl are already being pressed as we speak or we are getting it early via digital only). I don't think CDs and cassettes take that much time so maybe we are getting everything but the vinyl first 24

Expand It's funny that you say that when it's legit become a thing/meme online where people beg their favourite artists to stop collaborating with him because he "ruins" their music/albums. I like that this album seems to be a bit of a melting pot of producers, because that actually brings balance and nuance. It could potentially be a bit chaotic, or lack cohesion. But to me that's better than another album where Jack is fully in charge, we've heard enough of the "Jack + Lana" sound. Rick is a fan favourite, Jack is not. 11
NikoGo Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 I’m absolutely convinced we’re getting an album this year and I’m convinced it’s coming sooner than later. There is absolutely no other reason for Ben to do this, the fans weren’t even going crazy about when new music was coming 32 "Don’t forget me"

And it's not like it would be for promo reasons cause I doubt anyone other than Lana fans would read Ben's IG comments We are going to buy her albums regardless so I take Ben's words as a nice gift for us so we know it's coming 8

I'm not saying her work was bad, just that the production was the weakest link. Expand But that wasn't exactly what you said.. You said that her previous producers made her sound like ''a soulles barbie'' This comment reminded me of people not trusting her vision and artistry in the start of her career because they paid more attention to her looks. Many times a woman's work is discredited due to her image and people tend to not take her artistic vision and talent seriously because they think that she is superficial. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that you believe on what I stated above .. just wanted to share some of my thoughts .
