very smart considering that billboard changed their rules last year to benefit country music/radio and in 2023 the biggest song in the US was a country ass song so yh 

do you really think lana's intention behind this is to chase the charts?

Damn! This woman is an album-making machine!

Gaga aught to take a leaf from her book.

I’m not overly fond of country music but I’m sure Lana will nail it!

 

Love the album title tho.

"Lasso" is nice, short and snappy compared to “Did You Possibly Know Or Have You Ever Had Any Inclination That There May Or May Not Potentially Be Some Kind Of Long Unknown Tunnel Or Expansive Passageway Built Directly Underneath Or Along The Underside Of Ocean Boulevard, Hmm?"

Can you help me with understanding the genre better? Like what aspects or which songs from Chemtrails are country? For me most of the record is actually folk, or at least folk-inspired, especially the second half from Not all who wander are lost.

On topic: I wonder how different her sound will be for the new album. And as someone pointed out already - we are definitely not getting it in September but by the end of Q1 25 it should be released and we'll hear at least 1 or 2 more working titles for it.  I just love how messy she is with her anouncements, at least she keeps us in the loop. 

I'm not a country connoisseur, I don't really listen to the genre (clearly) all I know is I don't like most 'country' songs but I do usually like folk songs. Well to be fair the one country song I can think of on cocc is Dance Til We Die which to me is her worst song. I kinda like breaking up slowly and not all who wonder are lost, but it's not a sound i'd want again for a whole album idk. Also I just didn't like her recent "take me home country roads" song

Anyway, this is gonna be her 4th album in 3 years, i dont understand why everyone keeps acting like oh there's no way we're getting it she keeps making music

Anyone who isn’t hyped for a Lana country album… 

I really hope this song makes it too. The last minute is honestly one of the best recordings from Lana, Jack did great with the guitar licks.

Lana Del Rey is going country. 

The alternative pop star will take a musical detour on Lasso, a new collection due out in September, Del Rey told the audience at Billboard’s pre-Grammy event in Los Angeles on Wednesday night (Jan. 31). 

While paying tribute from the stage to Jack Antonoff, who’s in the running to become just the second creative to win the producer of the year Grammy for three consecutive years, joining Babyface, Del Rey let guests in her next project.
 

”If you can’t already tell by our award winners and our performers, the music business is going country. We’re going country. It’s happening,” she said from the dais at the Billboard Power 100 Party 2024. “That’s why Jack has followed me to Muscle Shoals, Nashville, Mississippi, over the last four years.”

The result of that musical journey is a new album slated for release in September, titled Lasso, she explains, her tenth studio LP.

 

The forthcoming release is the followup to 2023’s Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd, which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Antonoff is on a hot streak, with eight Grammys in his trophy cabinet. He has six more chances to add to that collection at the 66th annual Grammys, set for this Sunday, Feb. 4 in L.A., where his work on Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd and Taylor Swift’s Midnights are up for several honors.

To be nominated for producer of the year for five consecutive years, notes Del Rey, is “anything but luck.” Antonoff, she continues, was “born under one of those talent, lucky musical stars,” and as a producer and creative, he can essentially do it all.

Del Rey recounted her first meeting with Antonoff, at one of Clive Davis’ legendary pre-Grammy party. It was 2018, a particularly “interesting night,” she explains, having broken-up with a boyfriend just days before the recording industry’s big night — the second time in her public career. An instant friendship was struck with Jack, who is “friends with everybody.” That friendship shifted to the studio, where five songs were created in a single day. His chord progressions are “timeless, like instantly classic,” she explains. And his “instincts are unique. And apparently award winning.” The music man is a “one in a million.”

Del Rey is on a hot-streak of her own, thanks in part to her musical partnership with Antonoff. Lasso will be her fourth album in just three-and-a-half years. Or five since that fortuitous meeting with Antonoff (six including the 2020 audiobook Violet Bent Backwards over the Grass).
