Lana Del Rey Talks Billie Eilish, Madison Beer & Olivia Rodrigo | Billboard Women in Music 2023

[@tom_j.]

The way everyone on the stage mentioned her just shows her impact, glad that she's finally getting the recognition

[@waihtet3027]

Lana Del Rey is constantly getting recognition throughout her career but the way she is recognized is just different with the other artists. She is not recognized for charts and sales, but for her songwriting skills and her poetry. Therefore, her impact is recognizable only by professional musicians. For instance, Taylor mentioned her names many times on the stages and interviews. Lana Del Rey's music style is also unique among the mainstreamers. For me, Lana's songs are not quite entertaining, but I obsessed with her songs. I can't mention how it happened. My emotions got elevated and connected to her songs. I believe that Lana Del Rey's music are like artistic materials, not for entertaining, just to feel with that. That's why her songs are like drugs for some people. They can hurt you and heal you at the same time. If you don't believe it, I can give you a tip. Just listen "Hope is a dangerous thing" first. Then, listen "Get free". You will see what I mean.

I’ve been a fan of Lana for 14 years and I just hope she realizes that Madison Beer, Billie Eillish and Olivia Rodrigo wouldn’t have been able to be as vulnerable and open in their music if she didn’t pave the way. She walked the walk and now they all can run. I just hope she realizes that her music was and will always be revolutionary. There’s absolutely no one like Lana Del Rey.

as time goes by, it's becoming more & more evident how Lana inspired & revolutionized women in whatever genre in music. her art shows that it's ok for a women/girl to be sad, vulnerable, talk shits on men and just be wild and free. for that, Lana is a real Visionary Artist for paving the way for these emerging Artists & I'm just so proud.

[@MrsShimmyOnDown]

Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Jewel... did that fucking thirty years ago...

[@DxrlingDoll]

@@MrsShimmyOnDown They absolutely did but a lot of the up and coming girlies in music (i.e. the younger ones) didn’t necessarily grow up on Fiona Apple, Tori Amos, etc. - so much as they did Lana. So, what OP is saying holds a lot of weight as far as the modern day scene is concerned.

[@MrsShimmyOnDown]

@@DxrlingDoll No, it's simply incorrect. The OP's lack of knowledge of music history does not render their false statement magically correct.

[@DxrlingDoll]

@@MrsShimmyOnDown At what point did they say that Lana was the one and only to do anything? All they said was that she paved for the way for EMERGING artists, in the same way that Fiona, Tori, etc. PAVED the way for Lana at the start of her career. Like, I’m sorry they didn’t grow up listening to the aforementioned but to act as if Lana didn’t play a pivotal role in so many people’s/artist’s formative years is just being willfully ignorant. And so, OP does indeed have a point.

[@MrsShimmyOnDown]

@@DxrlingDoll The OP said Lana revolutionised music in making it OK to be sad and vulnerable; and this is simply not true: Lana's predecessors had revolutionised music in those respects - Lana just picked up the baton.

I knew I thought it was only ok because Lana rote it lol.😜 But now that I hear about how Tayler changed the verses and makes it all with her own voice it makes it sound so fake.

Sometimes i think she doesn't realize how influencing is she. How her music is changed the industry. But I'm really glad she's that honest and humble ❤️

[@iyellow]

Tbh I think she does know her influence more than most people. She has developed sounds that she wished she heard more and then slowly heard them more and more on the radio as she said. Personally I think she knows her worth and the worth of her work. Definitely humble like you said and carries a confidence about herself❤️❤️❤️ It would be hard to believe that she is unaware of her artistic greatness. She has a unique way of putting her life experiences into her art and to me it almost seems like she knows very few have this talent.

[@louloutre]

@@iyellow I really like her music but I don’t believe she writes her songs. I think Daddy was rich, and paid some very talented producers to write some songs.

[@louloutre]

@@HannahTag Songwriting talent exist, but it takes years and years of practice. People who wrote the most iconic pop songs are usually old dudes who spent their life writing music. The musical prodigy that was Michael Jackson worked with Quincy Jones (who was a lot older and had decades of experience in music). to make Thriller. So It's hard for me to believe that Lana wrote masterpieces like "Video Games" at 25.
