Lana Del Rey is gearing up to release her ‘Rock Candy Sweet’ album, and she’s delving up some controversy in the meantime.
Fresh-off the release of her ‘Chemtrails Over The Country Club’ album (stream it here), the singer took to social media to announce her next project and how it will “challenge” cultural appropriation.
Full story below…
Alongside a screenshot of a Harper’s Bazaar article called ‘Lana Del Rey Can’t Qualify Her Way Out Of Being Held Accountable,’ she wrote:
“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 June 1 titled ‘Rock Candy Sweet.'”

This is not the first controversy that the ‘Summertime Sadness’ singer has found herself in over the past year.
In May of last year, she criticized Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj for the lack of clothing, while leaving out many white entertainer’s names.
Then, in the unveiling of her album cover for ‘Chemtrails Over The Country Club,’ she preemptively clapped back over the lack of diversity in the artwork (as we reported here).
Needless to say, she has found herself in another sticky situation. But what are…
Yesssss💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿 Bring it on, dreamy pop Queen 👸🏽 we are ready for some controversial music. Show em haters what you made of 🤳🏿🤳🏿🤳🏿
At least she admits that Born To Die was a scam like I said in my deleted comment

If you have to specifically go out of your way to prove that you’re not something, then you probably are. Why weren’t healthy relationships and inclusivity a natural occurrence in her art? She has to “challenge” it? Girl, sit down. You’re telling on yourself now.
can’t sing can’t write can’t keep her mouth shut so now let’s resort to switching from fake woke to conservative lite to get some more koins… predictable and pitiful just like everything she puts out.
She ALWAYS WINS 💯🤣🤳🏽
[As do I 💋]
So, in other words she’s gonna try to infiltrate black culture, cash out, and move on. And she’s giving us this the heads-up in hopes we go easy on her. FOH!
