Anyone who’s been a Lana fan for over 5 years knows damn well that we have to ignore her until the album is actually out 😂 I got excited about the idea of a country album but then I remembered that it’s probably never gonna happen.
If she scrapped that project, I think she took the best decision. If everyone in pop/mainstream suddenly decided that country is the trend, the best thing since sliced bread... Why should she being a mere trend-follower, when that's something she's never been?
I was just at the Fenway park show and she brought Quavo out to perform and debut the music video for ‘Tough’ and it was electric at that stadium! She also sound checked another new song as well!
I felt like maybe Lana wants to focus on different genre now that almost everyone is doing country and we should know that Lana is never a follower. Lasso might come out as unreleased and maybe even rework to be more, intimate? I’m kinda hoping she revisit her Lizzie Grant / sparkle little jump rope queen era.
I have a theory. Taylor is planning on releasing reputation, rumored to be in September. That’s when lasso was set to release as well. I could see Lana putting it on pause for now to let Taylor’s record pass so it doesn’t get blocked on the charts and she’ll probably also include a couple slight diss tracks abt Taylor for doing what she did to Lana on ttpd
We can’t blame her for being critical with her work and wanting to feel comfortable and ready to release bc it’s gonna be representing her so who says it even has a ‘style’ because she is her own aesthetic
Dude, if she goes hip-hop. I'm going to be so excited though I know we will probably not get anything remotely close to born to die, but this might be the closest. I'd love to hear some More lawn. Hip-hop upbeat songs again.
I am GLAD we aren't getting Lasso cause I am TIRED of Jack Antonoff. And I'm tired and totally fed up with everything that we call music today. In the words of Lester Bangs from Almost Famous "it doesn't sound like music anymore it sounds like lifestyle maintenance"
Rap/hip hop is a good direction for her right now. Summer Bummer was great and she can make an album of songs like that, with rap features. Country isn’t really appealing especially when it’s becoming a rebrand for other artists.
@@CultureJunkie100 Yep, oof size large, lol. Also, seeing who she dueted with at Fenway Park, definitely lends itself to the idea of her doing some more vintage style tracks in the near future, with maybe some bits of country influence (her dress and boots very ever so slightly Nashville) a trap track with a rapper on it, along with some fan service throwback stuff (that set she sang was 100% for the fans, with all the 'red dress' iconography in both the outfits of her & her dancers, along with her singing it in 'Summertime Sadness'). We're in for something good, that much I know for sure. Plus, she's looking really good again. Hard to believe she's almost 40! 👀
Honestly I don’t mind lasso possibly not releasing I always preferred Lana del reys bad girl vibe songs like off to the races cola and her lizzie grant era songs. I hope that her next album will be similar to her older musics vibe.
