Lana Del Rey Talks ’Norman F**king Rockwell’ Working With Jack Antonoff, Covering Sublime & More
This Friday, Lana Del Rey drops her fifth major label album, “Norman ____ Rockwell!.” The piece can be described as a "mood" album as it's an album without any particular big song. Lana told ALT's Harms, that it's more like a "turn on leave in living room," record. Most of the tracks were written in the car as that is the places that Rey feels most creative if she's driving for more than an hour.
"I am a little bit of that kind of person where I sort of need to leave the middle of the culture..to really keep my finger on the pulse of it."
If you'll recall, last year, Lana took to social media to comment on rapper Kanye West's support for President Donald Trump. She commented under an Instagram post of Kanye's writing:
"Trump becoming our president was a loss for the country but your support of him is a loss for the culture," she wrote. "I can only assume you relate to his personality on some level. Delusions of Grandeur, extreme issues of narcissism -- none of which would be a talking point if we weren't speaking about the man leading our country.
"If you think it's alright to support someone who believes it's OK to grab a woman by the p**** just because he's famous-then you need an intervention as much as he does."
In her new song, "The Greatest," she uses that space to comment on the culture that she has observed and sings, “Kanye West is blonde and gone.”
When asked how important the state of California is to her, Lana stated that a lot of her time is spent on the road driving from the bay area and SoCal where she soaks up all the creativity. However, as a creative being, she's able to find creativity wherever she is, commenting on her past life in New York City.
After spending 15 years figure skating, the Young and Beautiful singer is now dedicating her time to rollerblading.
"Well, I thought I could rollerblade. I brought rollerblades to the set and I was like, 'watch me!'"
Turns out rollerblading may not be her thing, but one can appreciate Lana's willingness to pick up new creative work.

Will Mayfair-Richards she’s been

[@Mysteriuminiquitatis1998]

@@fan-tu5vy i think she’s really started to show more of her personality in the more recent years. In some of her earlier interviews she seemed very reserved and closed off

[@dianakoujan29]

She’s honestly so smart in the way she thinks and I love that she stays In her bubble and isn’t influenced by mainstream music of now and that she doesn’t feel pressured to change her vision. That’s what makes her a true artist as she has unchanged talent. Lana is the greatest musician and artist of our entire generation

[@TheEveana89]

But Lana is very much mainstream. Just because she is very authentic and embodies more vintage feel it doesn't make her not mainstream by definition. Just she is one of the good ones, there is always a good side of the popular music. Always have been, always will.

[@TheJamie6666]

[@DrokasMashUp]

I actually find his expressions quite distracting, like he's nervous or starstrucked or something, having difficulty to keep eye-contact, always looking down and touching the mic's cable... And I think Lana noticed it too by the way she looks at him sometimes but oh well, I'd probably stutter if I was in front of that woman so xD

Same!!! Same same same

[@beeball7348]

See this is why I look up to this woman, because even though she’s surrounded by so much musical influence, music trends, trending sounds, etc like he said, she hasn’t strayed from her own music, from her OWN art, like it’s no one else’s and she’s like no else, and it inspires me so much in life in general, when everyone is doing the same thing, and cheering eachother on for that, you’re kind of just left there like “but I don’t wanna do that, so I won’t, no matter how trendy or mainstream it is” and that’s why I love her and her music even after like 7-8 years, and I’m not the only one who appreciates and looks up to this amazing artist.

[@viviana2263]

Cuando el entrevistador menciona la parte donde dice que ella siempre está en su mundo, en su propia burbuja mientras toda la música está fuera de ella, lo que está de moda, tendencias musicales y ella sigue encerrada en su burbuja fiel a su visión +.+ ameee que lo mencionara, siempre lo he pensado y ver que hay mas gente que lo piense y se lo diga. Todos los que la seguimos hemos visto su evolución musical y que el hecho de que siempre lanza el álbum que de verdad quiere sacar, sin importar si va con la tendencia musical, eso me fascina de ella como artista. Aquí un ejemplo para muchos artistas que se puede ser una artista comercial sin tener que seguir la tendencia del mercado musical comercial de gran consumo para seguir en el mapa. Este hecho de sacar discos totalmente atemporales, timeless, aun con su propio estilo, es gran mérito! Hay artistas como ariana, taylor, katy, y ese tipo de artistas muy comerciales y populares, que seamos sinceros, te guste o no el pop comercial que ellas lanzan al final sus discos esta muy bien producidos, tiene a gente muy talentosa detrás y todo eso, SIN EMBARGO, siguen la tendencia, y lo hacen muy bien, me refiero, son muy buenas en hacer discos bien producidos que esten al dia con las tendencias musicales, pero mi punto es: que en 2012-2016 está de moda el A&B, hay van toooodas a sacar A&B discos, como ariana por ejemplo y mas aristas, que el trap esta moda, ahí van tooodas a sacar canciones pop-trap, que si ya si sucesivamente, no estoy diciendo que este mal adaptarte a las tendencias musicales, solo digo que les dan mucha importancia y lana NO, lana siempre hace lo que quiere, sin importar si está de moda hace que ella quiera sin importarle nada la hace una exponente muy fuerte en la música. Lo siento pero por ejemplo hablando de por ejemplo de ariana que se me viene mucho a al cabeza porque siempre esta on the top, ella no podría hacer un disco muy bueno y comercial (como el BTD) que sea un gran éxito Y POSTERIORMENTE sacar un especia de ultraviolence, osea, no puede, porque va contra la corriente del éxito asegurado imaginense, claro que esos artistas no toman ese tipo de riesgos, ¿porque después de tener tu propia bomba de éxito comercial simplemente no sigues la linea y te dedicas a seguir sacando hits si tanto a la gente le gusto? y ahí entra lana, sacando ultraviolence, en un camino totalmente opuesto y rebelde, en contra de la fórmula comercial sin importarle perder popularidad. Solo lana lo hace. Ari y selena aunque tengan buena producciones no pueden permitirse esto, porque ellas hacen música de gran consumo comercial y está dentro de su espectro de decisiones, no era una opción para ella, ellas necesitan seguir tras la tendencia (que repito, no es mala simplemente son un tipo diferente de artista). Y también como menciona en la entrevista para la radio que salió hace un par de días, la entrevistadora le dice que ella cree que la clave de su propio éxito es no tratar de encajar, si no simplemente estar ahí haciendo lo que debe hacer. Eso lo resume todo. Lana nunca trato de encajar con las demás artistas femeninas del pop comercial, lana siempre coció a parte y espor eso que ella pavimento el camino para artistas como billie, melanie, artistas con una visión mas oscura y alternativa, por eso es lana quien siempre está en glastonbury y estos festivales, porque es mas del gusto musical de muchos gustos variados, y ari o miley o selena o tay nunca la san invitado porque ellas son artistas mas para su tipo de publico, de consumo masivo que hacen enormes shows de esta índole, como un show. lnaa siempre es mas flexible y no tan estructurada, a veces desenfadada con sus decisiones. Lana nunca quiso pertenecer a ese club y me agrada que siempre haya seguido su visión sin importar si sigue el estándar musical del momento.
