Welcome to the Lasso Pre-Release Thread

Annual Discussion & Meltdown!

To be released September 2024

 

January 31st: Lana Del Rey has announced the title of her newest record "Lasso" during the NMPA x Billboard Songwriter Awards + Showcase. The album will be a country record with production by Jack Antonoff set for release in September 2024.

 

 

What we know so far:

- In a journal entry dated March 28th, 2023 posted on Instagram, Jack Antonoff wrote that "Lana refuses to leave [the studio]"

-  Lana Del Rey has revealed to a fan while at a Waffle House in Florence, Alabama that she is "working on a new recording" in July 2023. Later that month, she visited Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Sheffield, Alabama where she recorded 3-4 songs.

- In November 2023, Lana Del Rey hung out with Luke Laird, a country music producer/songwriter, in Nashville. They later visited again in January.

- In January 2024, Lana Del Rey stated she was working on new songs with Jack Antonoff in an Instagram story post.

 

Potential tracks (unconfirmed):

- Henry, Come On (created with Luke Laird, snippet uploaded to Lana's Instagram on January 18th, 2024)

- Take Me Home, Country Roads (John Denver cover originally released on December 1st, 2023)

if Lasso is the real name of this album, it might be the only one that we cant abbreviate (excluding Paradise)

we have UV and HM, but that's because they're compound words

Do modern country singers have horses on their cover?  This is my main concern at the moment: that the album could be a parody of country. She would seriously be dragged by critics and country music lovers. A horse, lasso, giddy up… It could be incredible and kitsch, I just hope it’s not a parody of the genre 

 

I see what you mean but I honestly wouldn't worry about that. Another artist tackling country maybe, but Lana is a musical genius and feels very connected to classic artists. I think she's definitely going to do the genre justice. 

 

I don't expect this album to reinvent the wheel, but I think she's going to do something really strong and universally beloved.

The way the abbreviation of DYKTTATUOB is even longer than Lasso

Im not kidding myself, we’ll get a Nikki collab for sure. I just hope though that there won’t be three… Give us the best one so it won’t be a complete Lana X Nikki LP (I don’t hate Nikki by the way, but she ain’t my fave collab either)

I’m not typically a country fan but I know Lana will make it into her own so it makes me excited to see what will come. That being said, as long as there’s no more than 1 Nikki lane collab I’ll prob be happy  preferably no Nikki lane but I doubt it so
