LDR5 - Pre-Release Thread

[Flowerbomb 65,558]

Well, if you are that artsy fartsy like you claim you are, you should maybe try it with Joanna Newson, take her fucking harp and shove it deep down your own .... to overcome you holier than thou attitude

Lol who?

 

I'm sorry but I just cannot understand why you're even on here, you talk down about Lana more times than you've said anything good about her. Doesn't makes sense to me.

[leaked_version 10,499]

I hope Lana serves some moves in her new video while I put three ppl on here on ignore to avoid any further discussion with them in the future

 

[Amadeus 11,293]

We want her to succeed, but just because she doesn't market herself the way Halsey and,Lorde do doesn't mean she's unsuccessful.

 

How exactly does Lana succeed though? Everyone always wants Lana to be this "musical icon" but how can you become an icon when no one even knows your songs. I know people who enjoy Lana's music and listen to UV and BTD and some of them didn't even know about HM until i told them that she released another record...

A contest from Polydor France

 

Btw I was casually half asleep in the metro going to uni this morning, turned my head to see the station name and yelped. Does this count as actual promo And I got my Lasagna Del Rey tshirt on today so now half a train knows I'm a Del Rey stan

 

 

i want to see your tshirt

Lana opens Lanaboards, wishing the gays leaked So Legit Part 2. "You know you that bitch when you cause all this conversation", she laughs reading the fights.

I'd say she has a cult fan base and I'm fine with that she has an alternative sound to her and she's definately iconic but her iconic status is more gradual I mean even in the fashion world you can argue she resuscitated an interest in flower crowns

Not being mainstream doesn't mean you're unsuccessful. I mean when you think about it, she's done her time in the major spotlight. She's made her legacy. The success of BTD, sold out shows etc.

She also went from being treated as a fashion icon and having a mulberry bag being named after her to topping worst dressed lists within 2 years that's truly impressive tbh.

BTD was a success yeah.. that's 1/4 ldr5 doesn't seem like an exception to that tbh. The metacritic data has nothing to do with being mainstream.

Fashion icon - I'm guessing the whole H&M shoot, Prada clothing? You know, the clothing that was handpicked for her by professional stylists.

 

Worst dressed - Down to her personal style and incorporating her own tastes at events.

[LDR5 2,738]

I hope she puts out something tomorrow or the 24th lr 31st. I need a single this month

[The Greatest 8,803]

why do so many people feel the need to come on here to bash Lana? I understand the frustration with the lack of promo because that's part of the era that we end up missing out on, but you will always be able to find someone more successful than she is, no matter what she does. She is not the person you stan to get really elaborate promotion, you stan her for beautiful music. That's what she cares about, and just because not everyone understands or enjoys it that does not take away from what it is. There is true garbage out there that ends up chart topping. I will take the good music and everything she gives us because she has such a unique vision. And if you don't like what she's doing you don't have to be on here and you don't have to listen to it.

first of all, all what Lana wants is being herself

lana isn't a fu*king fashion icon, she's the one who wants to wear any piece of sh*t from her closet and she'd be totally fine and she already knows that her taste in fashion is not that good and she said that before 

we all want her to do what she actually wants, because if she wanted to be a fashion icon she can tell Johnny Blueeyes please darling let me be a fucking fashion icon

when she started the UV era with the Next liberation magazine photoshoot she asked them that she wants to wear from her own closet whatever she wants and i guess that was a good and CLEAR introduction 

she doesn't need to follow up some rules to be successful by the others standers 

there's gaga there's katy there's the thirsty Halsey, anyone who wants to stan someone who's thirsty for the spotlights can stan one of these

so let her do whatever she wants bc if she wants to get back to her glory days as what most of you said she CAN but she does NOT want to.

[White Hot Forever 4,160]

Why are you guys so critical of her? I don't get why many of you are even here if you don't like the direction she's going or her approach in the industry. I don't know if you've realized, but she does what she wants, and that what makes her great. She's not trying to be mainstream. You guys are way more concerned about her sales than she is.
