Thank you for this review…I’ve been meaning to write something similar for a long time to respond to trolls like “frank booth” but haven’t gotten around to it.

What bothers me the most about the cannibalization of Lana Del Rey isn’t that people don’t like her music––that is fine––but the cruel attacks they resort to to put her down. Like all of us, she is a person with feelings, hopes, insecurities and so much more. It takes an enormous amount of courage, originality, daring, and fearlessness to engage in art at such a public, and widely publicized, level. We should seek to foster such qualities rather than destroy them.
