The singer's March 20 Instagram story post read: "Just want to say thank you again for the kind articles like this one and for reminding me that my career was built on cultural appropriation and glamorizing domestic abuse.I will continue to challenge those thoughts on my next record on June 1 titled Rock Candy Sweet." Lana Del Rey unveiled the cover and tracklist for her upcoming album, Chemtrails Over The Country Club, on Sunday and she's already on the defensive about the visual. Her announcement was seemingly inspired by a Harper's Bazaar article called " Lana Del Rey Can't Qualify Her Way Out of Being Held Accountable." Just a day after the album's release, the singer shared a teaser for a new album called Rock Candy Sweet, slated to release June 1. Later, she continued by comparing herself to FKA twigs, who is mixed race.This follows up the singer's seventh studio album released this past March, Chemtrails over the Country Club.
“When I mentioned women who look like me, I didn’t mean white like me, I mean the kind of women who, you know, other people might not believe, because they think, ‘Oh, well, look at her, she f**king deserves it,’ or whatever,” she said at the time. She also posted a divisive cover artwork that had fans talking. Blue Banisters is set to be released on July 4, Independence Day in the US.The American singer shared the news with her followers on her social media platforms today (April 28). She added: “Let this be clear, I’m not not a feminist – but there has to be a place in feminism for women who look and act like me – the kind of woman who says no but mean hear yet – the kind of women who are slated mercilessly for being their authentic, delicate selves, the kind of women who get their own stories and voices taken away from them by stronger women or by men who hate women.”ĭel Rey refused to apologise in the face of criticism, dismissing racism allegations as “bulls**t”. Lana Del Rey is back with another album, months after her last record Chemtrails over the Country Club, released in March this year. “Now that Doja Cat, Ariana, Camila, Cardi B, Kehlani and Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé have had number ones with songs about being sexy, wearing no clothes, f**king, cheating, etc – can I please go back to singing about being embodied, feeling beautiful by being in love even if the relationship is not perfect, or dancing for money – or whatever i want – without being crucified or saying that I’m glamorising abuse,” she wrote. In May, she was heavily criticised for a tone-deaf post comparing herself to a women of colour in music (and Ariana Grande), which had the effect of suggesting they were given an easy ride by the industry while she was the victim of misogyny. This isn’t the first time Lana Del Rey has been called out over race issues. Lana Del Rey criticised for comparing herself to women of colour. Lana Del Rey announced that her upcoming album, Chemtrails Over Country Clubs, is being delayed, but that she'll be putting out a new covers album in its place.
