It was a white girl doing a tiktok or some shit and she was introducing her "black best friend" before saying, "see I'm not racist"
It was 99% LARP, but it got to the point where it seemingly went in a complete circle with her racism and stunts like this lately, so I guess in that case it became a lot less LARP.
Net? More like increasing her net worth!
Basically "Hey all this crazy shit with terrorists invading the US Capitol happened but my super cool music came out of it, so I guess it wasn't all bad eh?"
Her music is good, and her most recent album is her best one yet. Also because mainstream audiences don't care about racism or buffoonery and will let her comments slide in a second.
She whined about her successful and high quality album (NFR) not being #1 above Ariana Grande, Doja Cat, Camila Cabello, Cardi B, Beyonce, and other women of color (other than Ariana Grande). NO idea why she was whining about that shit either when her album was plenty successful, but racists gonna racist it seems.
Her music is super boring
Exactly my feelings.
Dropping in 4 pages deep to post this mess.
None of note. Did somebody mention them in this thread?
Aye. Not for me on multiple attempts getting into her albums.

Lana Del Rey hits back at critics who say she "glamorizes abuse" by dismissing other artists, mostly WOC
Twitter was on fire this morning: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/may/21/lana-del-rey-hits-back-at-critics-who-say-she-glamorises-abuse The thing is she's got a point; she got alot of shit by critics over the years. For being a indie white artist her singing about fucking the wrong...
Basically here's the short of it:
All of the artists namedropped there are women of color with the exception of Ariana Grande. She also doubles (or quadruples) down on it later.
She's had other really stupid statements too, such as her comments about Israel:
Lana Del Rey defends decision to perform in Israel: 'Music is universal'
American singer says she does not necessarily support governments in countries in which she performs
Autotune doesn't magically give you a good voice.
This whole hate-on for pop era is so weird. I'm not even among them, but there's just a strange amount of vitriol toward them in general. Pop music is also a lot more than Dua Lipa, Lana Del Rey, and Sia.
Eh, we all have different opinions about music. That is not relevant to the thread.
Norman Fucking Rockwell, her sixth and most recent album was one of the best received albums of 2019, making appearances throughout a hugely diverse amount of year end "top lists" and even making several appearances in plenty of decade top lists. Essentially, she's been more relevant these past couple of years than she's ever been in her entire career.
you really came in here, posted this, refused to acknowledge the instagram post, and bolted when asked about it huh?
