Vertimus 9,851 Posted July 4, 2022 40 minutes ago, Venice Peach said: She has to... she's the queen of summer. Summertime Sadness (obviously) and Doin Time are her most popular songs. Even HBTB is slowly picking up on streaming again... People love summery Lana and her label should capitalize on that (even though she doesn't care). Maybe they could use the HM strategy with a more upbeat and "commercial" lead single to catch some attention even if the record is more lowkey I don't think artists and labels end to conceptualize 'summer albums' anymore, unless they're artists who spend the summer playing at festivals across the country, particularly in the South, and make the bulk of their income that way. Perhaps Lana is afraid that an overtly 'summer album,' which I would also love to see, would reignite the claims from critics that she is a 'superficial pretty girl' and not much more. I believe she still has a lot of unfriendly critics out there who would never think of dumping that sort of criticism at almost any other female artist currently making waves. Perhaps that's why the COCC and BB releases were on the down low side, and perhaps she'll continue that trend, knowing she can still be commercially and critically successful enough without doing more. 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She needs to stop caring about critics. If COCC and BB were her first 2 albums instead of BTD and Ultraviolence, I’m pretty sure that she would not have the fan base that she has right now. 5 minutes ago, hotshot2am said: The Lana cult worked, TikTok is full of videos again why Lana is racist and should be cancelled. I wouldn’t worry about that. Most of the people that try to cancel her aren’t really fans in the first place, so it doesn’t end up having that much of an impact. They’ll forget about it in a couple of days and move on to trying to cancel someone else. 15 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not seeing them but either way I think that some of her actions are worthy of talking about, especially the QFTC & the COTCC cover post. The only hate I'm seeing is directed at the coquettes. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

star Iux 5,995 Posted July 4, 2022 Lana really is getting cancelled all over again, do these people not get tired? Hopefully this doesn't discourage LDR9. Spoiler It's weird to me that ppl are bringing up the Native headdress since that was so long ago & Lana has apologized for it, but I understand criticism for the QFTC & the whole kissing Chuck thing. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
