Lana Del Rey is set to release her third album of 2021, ‘Blue Banisters’, this summer.
The prolific star already announced the follow-up to March’s ‘Chemtrails Over the Country Club’, ‘Rock Candy Sweet’, will arrive on June 1.
And now the ‘White Dress’ hitmaker has revealed her next record will drop around a month later on July 4.
Lana tweeted along with the artwork: “Album out July 4thBLUE BANISTERS.”
The 35-year-old singer will challenge accusations of her “cultural appropriation and glamorising of domestic abuse” on ‘Rock Candy Sweet’.
Lana faced a backlash last year after she made comments on the topic of equality after likening herself to stars such as Ariana Grande, Cardi B, Camila Cabello and Beyonce in a post about feminism.
The ‘Video Games’ hitmaker wrote on social media: “Now that Doja Cat, Ariana [Grande], Camila [Cabello], Cardi B, Kehlani and Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé have had number ones with songs about being sexy, wearing no clothes, f****** cheating etc – can I please go back to singing about being embodied, feeling beautiful by being in love even if the relationship is not perfect, or dancing for money – or whatever I want – without being crucified or saying that I’m glamorizing abuse?????? (sic)”
Lana later added: “There has to be a place in feminism for women who look and act like me – the kind of woman who says no but men hear yes.”
She was forced to respond and argued her comments weren’t related to race.
Lana said: “And my last and final note on everything — when I said people who look like me — I meant the people who don’t look strong or necessarily smart, or like they’re in control etc.
“it’s about advocating for a more delicate personality, not for white woman — thanks for the Karen comments tho. V helpful. (sic)”
