Others are simply not available in traditional places on the internet, like del Rey’s early album, “Lana Del Ray” from one of her original stage names, Lizzy Grant, which was released on CD and not converted to streaming when Grant became Del Rey. Most of them, according to a rumor, were released after a leak from an external hard drive taken when del Rey was staying in a hotel. Along with these songs, there are many-over 100-unreleased songs that continue to make her the giant she is without the recognition, money, or streams that traditionally released tracks garner. These tracks have amassed millions of streams on Soundcloud, despite lack of promotion or availability on traditional music streaming platforms. As an artist with eight studio albums, dozens of singles and several EPs, her music has left and will continue to leave an indelible impact on music and pop culture. Why would a cultural giant like herself quit social media?ĭespite her recent announcement, it is clear that Lana will never disappear. Like any announcement of a pop star with Lana’s fame, the announcement was met with anger and sorrow, along with confusion. While she will continue to release music, and possibly poetry, her presence as a social media icon will cease.

Meanwhile, Del Rey is set to take the stage at the Chicago music festival Lollapalooza in August.On an Instagram video last week, Lana Del Rey announced that she was deactivating all of her social media accounts to pursue other interests. Gaga, who landed the top spot on Forbes highest-earning celebs under 30 list, is currently gearing up to perform her first single from her upcoming album ARTPOP at the MTV Video Music Awards-her first major performance since undergoing hip surgery in February, which forced the singer to cancel the remainder of her Born This Way Ball tour. If the two did have any beef, they have seemingly buried the hatchet, as the singers had a well-documented slumber party with Lindsay Lohan at the Chateau Marmont last summer.

While a rep for Del Rey had no comment, an apparent 2009 Facebook status update from Lana's page (under the name Lizzy Grant) has also been circulating online, in which the singer supposedly expresses her distaste for the pop star.Īlthough it's unclear whether the post is real, it reads, "When will people be over her? I am Hater," and includes a link to Wale's tune "Chilln," which features Gaga.

"What happened to Brooklyn, what happened to our scene, baby? / Have we all gone Gaga crazy? / Remember when the streets used to be dangerous and we were born bad / And we were born bad?" goes the song's lyrics. Fans have interpreted the song as seemingly criticizing Gaga's career as she struggled to make a name for herself in the music biz.
