besides the born to die title track, has lana ever released music in december that wasn’t for a movie? for some reason if she ever has it’s slipping my mind, but other than BTD and Big Eyes i don’t think she’s put music any other music out so close to the end of the year

It’s a bad time to be releasing music

i just thought of this after reading this and there were a few i could've sworn were released in december but were actually released in january so... it might be the only thing

exactly, that’s why i don’t think she’s coming before the end of 2022… literally nobody releases the week of thanksgiving or the last 2 weeks of the year, which gives us about a 3 week window for her to put something out if she’s coming before 2023. if she is releasing soon i think the second week of next year would be a lot more realistic

The poetry album isn’t classed as music so it cannot count as a 10th album, regardless of what Lana says. She can’t change how things are categorised she isn’t that powerful lol  she can say it’s her 10th piece of released works.

what the hell is going on lmfao

idk i mean i would definitely classify it as music, it’s just a different kind of music. in my head violet is still just kind of separated from the rest of her discography so the upcoming album still feels like LDR9 to me, but with the logic that spoken word over instrumentals isn’t music, then what is ambient music? hell what is rap music? lana is proud enough of violet to consider it a studio album, so even if we don’t necessarily agree with that or think of the album in that way, i don’t think it’s fair to say that she can’t choose where it sits in her own discography

I feel like the word album is such a dated term. Lana’s albums are bodies of work/art, why would Violet be considered less of an album than her others? She still put her soul into it for many years, plus it has original music in it. If she considers it her favorite album/project, then why wouldn’t fans respect that?

I agree. Plus if she herself wants to consider Violet her 9th album/body of work that’s completely fair

i love violet, if her automatic writing leads her to only read her poems with some background music on this album i will love it so much too

I think the issue is that it’s just not down to her, how it’s categorised depends on the label,  retailer and publishers.  So if it were to be a 10th album then it should be listed as such by her label and retailers.  I have no idea how they categorise something as music vs poetry album.  Because it’s a book, it has an audiobook release…many audio books also have music in the background. So i guess that’s why it’s not enough for it to be considered music?

Yeah if something is coming this year she's definetly releasing this coming week cause after that point is holiday season only  

There's Christmas music everywhere already 

 

At least the wait between stuff will be short if it all starts next year tho... but I still want a little taste

Does anybody have a quick list of the producers we suspect to be on this next album? I'm sure it's somewhere in here but I don't wanna go searching for it. 

Some of the famous ones are out of the album.

There’s the one on rockefeller and Jack probably have one track or another.

I’ll try to find eggnog here in Brazil to drink while I listen to this EDM x Jazz banger. Some of that christmas-esque sound on how to disappear will be on it too.

A wordy and angry album with the aesthetic of the W magazine shoot would be right up my alley tbh 

the album release would be right up my alley tbh

it's not that special it's basically just slightly thicker milk that has a cinnamony flavor

moving back on topic so elle doesn't move this to the other thread, i don't think we're getting anything in december

My prediction has always been announcement before 2023, release around March  I'm still confident in this timeline.

Drew Erickson and Jack Antonoff are the only confirmed ones. There's also that Ian guy but I think we couldn't find who he was so maybe he's not a producer but some music engineer from their teams? 

Jon Batiste could also be a producer but we still don't know his actual contribution to the album... but he's semiconfirmed too.

Rick hinted about being on the album (maybe in the form of an outtake/unreleased).

 

Then we have just speculation of Zach coming back (for a new song or another TLSP outtake) and Gabe Simons since they worked together in the last album (and the Summertime cover)

Me too. Announcing an album rn does not seems as a good idea tbh

[godsmonster 13,779]

isn’t Violet technically an audio book?
