I find it annoyingly ironic that the same media outlets that’ve been championing Lana Del Rey ever since her meteoric rise to manufactured stardom are the ones now bashing her for the same reasons they praised her.
Everyone’s on a non-stop bandwagon of bullcrap, and that’s what’s wrong with music media…actually, all media.
Personally, I don’t hate the record - I don’t like it either; I’ll leave it at that. I’ve not really been a fan of hers, but I truly do believe she’s talented; that is, if she gets rid of the awful exterior that her marketing team built up around her.
I’m probably contributing to the Lana circus by writing a blog entry about her. Sigh.
