Lasso - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

[BethDufreneOnTheBayouByYou 9,150]

Finally a question about Lasso even though the answer left me with more questions  She said in her speech yesterday she has off years where the muse isn’t as strong and she doesn’t feel as inspired as other periods. After opening up so much on COCC, BB and Tunnel maybe she’s not exactly sure where to go next and that’s okay. She should take the time to experiment with her ideas and music instead of rushing…..even though according to her this has been three years in the making

i think lana is genuinely concerned about looking like a trend hopper (“four major artists announced country albums”) so i think the country thing has probs been shelved for now  which is unfortunate bc i think it would’ve slayed but i’m just excited she’s feeling a bit more playful and melodic for the next record !!

[WhiteHot4ever 636]

Well this is so Lana code… hopeful, we will have the record next year…. Or maybe never.

I think it’s obvious from this interview that lasso has been cancelled and the country is gone and the best case scenario we get another album in 2025. Hopefully working with quavo redirects her to trap again

just a dream I had in mind

Which I think it's good because it means she wants to keep doing her own thing, which is exactly why she's one of the GOATs.

I'd go full jazz/electronica/trap if I were her but I'm sure whatever decision she makes will pay off creatively. I just don't see it coming anytime soon. She's now living the things that are probably inspiring her into writing new material.

But didn't she say to Elle that Lasso is still gonna be out in 2024 or something? She probably revamped the album's concept, like @rosemead ramada said, she has done it all the time since UV.

Honestly you can’t trust Lana with an album release date until you see an actual preorder up.

Tough was going to be a country song infused with trap beats according to an insider. We saw a still from the music video and she was holding a guitar in the middle of a field. What’s happening 

[Embach 43,633]

Lasso vs GTA 6 which is going to be released first

[crazyforyou 4,322]

the best case scenario is that we still get an album this september but it’s fully trap 

[Chanele 446]

I feel like its gonna be Country but obviously infused with her own elements. I dont think its cancelled or scraped because she has done so much work/meeting country artists recently.

I feel like her saying “everyone went silent” - because no one believed that the music industry was going country. But then the week later 4 aftists were going country so she was trying to say “did I prove my point”

[Americen Whore 10,256]

There’s no way she canceled the album or changed the genre, like the country theme they did for coachella with a rope, wearing all these country outfits, singing with so many country artists, opening Coachella with a country song, Margaret calling her country queen, henry being produced by a country producer, tough having country lyrics, and her saying she’s going country, all went for nothing? 

[jimmyjimmycocoapuff 5,891]

i'm 100% here for melodic, structured songs. i'm kind of sick of the stream of consciousness writing we've been seeing from her and other artists lately.

 

also my dad just texted me the NME article- i think he's more excited for this album then i am

absolutely agreed! if being singular and standing out from mainstream pop is important to her (which, like you, i’m sure it is!) i think now might be a good time to put out a shoegaze, trip hop or acid jazz inspired album, bc i just have this weird feeling that these will be the next major influences in pop music over the next year or two. it would be great if she could get there early and put her own stamp on it before it becomes the next big trend, since she likely feels that now is a little late for a full country album!

RIP Lasso you would’ve loved the Nikki Lane collab album that never existed

[Trash Magic 28,435]

That was a really fun interview. I loved the anecdote about the green contact lenses. Not someone finally asking about the album only to leave us in more uncertainty than before

LITERALLY 

[honey dew 11,795]

She's so funny for saying all 5000 people in the audience went dead silent after she said the industry's going country bc am I demented or was there not applause when she said that?
