New Music Tuesday | Lana Del Rey: “Born To Die
Within a few months’ time, Lana Del Rey went from viral sensation, to SNL musical guest, to favorite punching bag of “music journalists” – all before her debut album dropped. This week, Lana’s first LP Born To Die is released internationally – and it is already topping the charts in eleven countries. “Shoutout to my haters, sorry that you couldn’t phase me.”
I, and a lot of people from the office, became obsessed with Lana over the fall when the “Video Games” clip blew up online. We’ve been eagerly awaiting this album, and it doesn’t disappoint. There isn’t anyone else out there right now doing what Lana does.
You need to listen to Born To Die. I’ll give you some tracks to start out with. If you like them, you can go from there. Choose your own adventure.
VITAL TRACKS: “Without You” // “Off To The Races” // “This Is What Makes Us Girls” // “Million Dollar Man”
