LOL How do you appropriate white european culture? Especially one from a super power which almost took over the world not even 100 years ago.

It’s from Marina Del Rey Just because a friend from Cuba told her that Lana Del Rey sounds cool, it doesn’t mean she’s appropriating Cuba’s culture because the name has nothing to do with Cuba just to begin with. Im sorry but trying to be so shady and hateful towards Lana for every single little thing about her is starting to sound tiring and ridiculous. Honestly Gaga herself has done way more problematic stuff than Lana but you guys insist that she’s problematic for some reason. What does anything I said have to do with Cuban culture? Lana took a latin name because her friends said it sounded cool. Those friends happen to be Cuban. End of story.

NYC Monster 260 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I always thought her name was from Delray Beach, the city in Florida. I remember she said she had a boyfriend that lived in Delray and when she'd visit him she loved it, hence why her name was originally spelled Lana Del Ray and then she changed it to Rey eventually Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjaf 1,313 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 y’all really need to stop using SJW that way lmao you’re just fueling right-wing rhetoric also the fact that there’s a similar thread about cancel culture or something similar every week and that it always gets 5+ pages of people complaining about it “going too far” is... worrisome not commenting on this particular instance because, as it turns out, nobody cares! if you’re looking for a place to channel all of that frustration with like-minded people I’m sure you can find a ton of reddit threads Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nativenewyorker 1,190 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Denying the cultural appropriation in Elizabeth’s artistry is ignorant. Things like Tropico, Florida Kilos, West Coast etc. come across as a privileged white girl dipping into Hispanic culture when it’s convenient and for profit.
