Lana Del Rey Drags Music Culture And Also Announces New Album Date

[plastiquedoll 147]

The fact that she didn't mention any female writers or alt female singers who allegedly criticized her is really interesting. She knew that would lead to a frenzy. Which makes me think that she had no bad intentions whatsoever by mentioning Beyonce, Doja and the others. I can totally imagine her being so clueless to how offensive the statement may seem.

LANA BANANA

It's more ballsy to say you're not a feminist then to say you are 

[BLOODANDSEMEN 248]

I don’t think she was dragging the artists, but the culture.

Wtf strippers have to do with this? You don't need to shame sex work in this conversation. Feminism is about not shaming other women decisions even if you are not ok with them and even more if we are talking about work or ways to survive in this world.

This is why I’m making the point that the same people who get upset when people shame the decisions of strippers are the same people mad about Lana singing about enjoying being in a submissive relationship. I think sex work is respectable and I think what Lana sings about is respectable.

@KanyeWest what do u think about this

I understand it, I'm not reading between the lines and see it in a race perspective, or as an attack. Anyone who has reading capabilities would understand what she said. There's nothing to debate on 

[Fish 6,086]

if you make this about race you're missing the whole point. sad

Did Lana at any point say "I am the first female artist in history to ever talk about being submissive in a toxic relationship"?

The answer is no, therefore this person read between the lines and used a very specific lense as to create the idea that Lana has officially disrespected black women in the music industry. Too far, relax.

What even made her come out with this statement? It seems so unwarranted. The first paragraph really wasn’t needed and if any of you have heard Gaga’s latest interview with Zane Lowe about how female artists put her down and didn’t give her guidance well this is what Lana is doing right here to young female artists.

I’m so confused since Lana has some rather provocative and sexual music. Ride music video has her against a pinball machine with a man behind her? This is really disappointing but if it’s publicity she’s after to promote her next album it’s worked.

what is desperate to you? Please tell me

You can search Google how they tried to get #1 or for that matter few other singers who used lots of tricks to get #1 spot. 

See I am not trying to hate on specific singers for doing so. I understand they have a career and label behind them but music should not be made only for getting that #1 spot is what I want to advocate because music has a huge important in most people's life and bringing unity. See how people in 1990s of 1980's or even earlier made music for humans. Not for #1 charts.

she’s literally just saying those people have hit songs with the kind of material that she’s been criticized for. she never said anything bad about them.

She’s complaining about the double standard of praising women for being open about their sexuality while bashing others for being submissive in their relationships. To strengthen her argument she mentioned critically acclaimed women who not so subtly talk about sex. 
I didn’t even think about Cardi, Beyonce etc being Woc, because that has nothing to do with Lana’s argument

end thread/

If you didn't comprehend that, re-read it and train ur reading skills, not saying it as a mean way but u need to get away from ur own head and just read, without being instantly mad bcs u read three names of black women artists and instantly think 'OMG RACISM!'. 'OMG LANA IS WHITE AND SHE NAMED THREE BLACK ARTISTS! SHE IS AGAINST THEM!' this is literally how y'all read

That's exactly my point. I am just surprised how many people think she is dragging them when she is not.
