Sorry, Guys, We're Just Not "Deep" Enough for Lana Del Rey
It seems like Lana Del Rey has based her whole entire career on being obnoxious and unlikable -- remember that time that she said that she didn't want anyone to listen to her music in an interview with Rolling Stone to promote her new album? -- but guys, that's all wrong. That's not the way it is at all. See, it turns out that we're just not deep enough to intuit what Lana's doing. We can try and try all we want, but it's just not going to happen because we're too dumb. That might sting a little, but it's the truth, according to Lana:
"I choose to write about what I know. I choose not to discuss those stories any further than my music. It doesn’t make things easy for me publicly or in interviews and I do interviews because I believe the music is good enough for me to support it as best I can. Sometimes when the things you say and the way you look don’t add up- people are quick to label you as an impersonator or feel like you’re not entitled to the life experiences you’ve really lived. They’re not deep enough to intuit."
And if you still think you might just not care for her, it's probably because she loves the terrible Azealia Banks:
"I f--- with Azealia Banks because I have the same artistic inclinations as her and the same taste in men."
And then, in the most incredible moment that has ever happened in any interview, Lana was asked who she relates to most in terms of her career. Her answer? Lil Kim. Lil Kim. Have you ever read anything more perfect in your entire life? Or rather, wouldn't that be the most perfect thing you've ever read in your entire life, if only your poor, feeble mind could comprehend it?
