West Coast 45,795 Posted May 22, 2020 Having the opportunity to have a sleepless night and really re-think about the whole situation and everything that unfolded yesterday was not the best experience. Nevertheless, I think it was somewhat eye-opening. I still feel as though that the wording was very, veeery, poor and there was absolutely no need for Lana to namedrop any of these successful female artists to make a point, as it actually made it look like she was victimizing herself and that was frankly insensitive to the hardships any and all of the women she mentioned actually went and are still going through. It made her come across as selfish, insensitive and to a certain extent quite ignorant on other important issues. But, getting passed the first paragraph, I feel like the rest of her letter is actually spot on. She specifically called out female indie writers in her post for the way they treated her and are still treating her today, in regards to the her lyricism and her so called "submissive" image/persona. I don't know if many of you guys have been around since 2011-12, but what she said hit close to the bone to me. Back in those days, these same indie writers they legit made a sport out of hating Lana and making up stories about her to further their narrative that she was this dumb, self-destructive, inauthentic industry plant. Which I think Lana still hasn't let go, regardless of the recent critical acclaim she has received over 'NFR!'. She clearly has harnessed strong resentment towards this specific group of people. It all definitely came out wrong, but I feel like it comes from a place of personal frustration of being apart of the industry, as it's the first time she actually directly alluded to the whole thing. Still, I wish Lana had a PR person, this is way too messy even by her so called standards. And that was my last post on the topic, I've already lost/pissed off enough LanaBoards acquaintances as is. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. 19 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drowning mermaid 1,706 Posted May 22, 2020 thought about it a bit and came to the conclusion that this whole thing is even dumber than previously thought. lana handles criticism from an army of snobby male critics without speaking out and never protests when men say disgusting things about her (eminem, anybody??) but god forbid a 17 year old girl express her thoughts about her work or ann powers to criticize her even a little bit in an article. jesus christ. i’ve never seen a clearer case of internalized misogyny in my entire life 15 Quote all my wounds are due to love, to love, love, love Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mkultraviolence 5,832 Posted May 22, 2020 I think something good that has come from this is that we've had awesome discussion where we brought up important issues. It has been really, idk concerning and disheartening reading a lot of people's posts (thank you for dismissing valid discussion with the dozen of posts saying we are lacking reading comprehension skills), but I hope this can open up a place for more conversation about women in the music industry and artistic freedom. 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He gets called out for it here and there on a very rare occasion and it dies down incredibly fast. Why? BC he's a male. It's nothing compared to the criticism Lana has and still does get in her career. Exactly. And Lana faced harsh criticism since day 1. There was a point where nobody, absolutely nobody but her then-not-so-big fanbase supported her. January 2012 was a nightmare for her psychologically. She still believed in her art and kept going, even if people judged her for every single thing she did. And you can't deny 90% of those reviews and commentaries were sexist. The industry was more anti-feminist towards LDR than LDR's music supposedly was. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

godsmonster 14,221 Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Exactly. And Lana faced harsh criticism since day 1. There was a point where nobody, absolutely nobody but her then-not-so-big fanbase supported her. January 2012 was a nightmare for her psychologically. She still believed in her art and kept going, even if people judged her for every single thing she did. And you can't deny 90% of those reviews and commentaries were sexist. The industry was more anti-feminist towards LDR than LDR's music supposedly was. I did a project regarding women in the music industry and their experiences, and Lana's early career was one of the three topics I chose. People tore her to shreds for being "inauthentic", especially when information of the Lizzy Grant days came forward. But we all know that story, but I have never seen, or heard of, a male artist be torn to shreds like she was, for public performances, to authenticity. Although, I've given this some thought since yesterday, if she felt like she couldn't truly make the music she wanted to since BTD and UV, does that mean that Honeymoon, Lust for Life, and Norman Fucking Rockwell are inauthentic to herself? I read somewhere here that someone said maybe she wrote those records to appease critics, and if that is so, does it take away from the things she sang about? I am having trouble articulating this, but it makes me challenge my perception of her last three albums, in a way. I mean, if she changed her lyrics and such to appease critics, that's fine, and artists make songs all the time that have no meaning. And I'm not trying to reignite that authenticity thing, but it makes me wonder. idk im having trouble putting my thoughts into this post, hopefully someone understands what i'm trying to ask/say EDIT: maybe im looking to much into it/overthinking things Edited May 22, 2020 by godsmonster 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
