LANA’S PAST
Lana Del Rey was born in New York City on 1985 July 21; though she was born in the
awards for song of the year city, she grew up in Lake Placid, New York, with her younger brother and sister. She
for the following songs: eventually moved in with her aunt and uncle, learning the guitar in the process; it was when
‘Norman F***ing she studied philosophy at university that music sparked her interest, then later became her
Rockwell’ and ‘A&W’. main focus.
She first started her music career singing at clubs and open mic nights, though she lost a
songwriting competition she entered in 2006; a judge on the panel saw potential in her and
helped her make a demo, ending off when she signed off an indie label and earns 10,000 to
move to New Jersey.
Lana Del Rey’s orginal written
soundtrack ‘Young and
Beautiful’ was written to fit the

the 2013 film adaption of the Lana del Rey has gone viral for her earliest hits, showcasing a gloomy vibe she called
Great Gatsby. “Hollywood sadcore.” Examples include the old cartoony mixtape nostalgic clips in her
music video for the song Video Games, or the music video for her song Born to Die,
which was more rebellious, grand and royal-like, decadent with the colors of the

Why Taylor Sucks-tayssip Taylor Gossip Yeetaratzi
Taylor Swift's successful songs frequently address
relationship troubles, capitalizing on men or
women who have disappointed her or left a foul
taste in her mouth. While it is fine to convey
negative feelings about previous experiences, not
every song should be about reconciling haters or
healing bad blood among friends. If you're having
difficulty maintaining a relationship, it's possible
that the issue isn't with the person you're dating.
Perhaps the problem is you. In a sense, her songs
sell all that is wrong with the other without ever
going within to see what, if anything, you can alter
about yourself.
Taylor’s Receding Hairline
The Taylor you see on stage is much different than the
real taylor! Shocking photo’s of Taylor has been
released! Taylor’s fans are disloyaling her, the Swifties
are shaving their head for her.

Is Taylor’s Feet Ugly?
YEETARATZI-Storm and Molly
According to Feetify Taylor’s feet only scored a 37 out
of 100. Taylor’s fans are going crazy, the reasoning is
that her feet are stinky. Many before and after her eras
tour feet pics have been released showing a shocking
display of stinky feet!

Now that we’ve heard the statistics, we should hear about what the fans
think; we have one YouTube channel that responded to our Reddit page.
they wanted to be featured so here are the words of

Brittanyl: “Oh, my awash. Gïrly pop, guess what tay tay just did!
I can’t BELIEVE what she DID. First, she took a plane for 13 minutes
instead of driving for 30 minutes! But now she had surgery. And then, she
wanted a banana! She asked her mom for a banana, and then ‘she said,
“That's not the one I want.”
Carniefe: “Like womanhood, that is so selfish!”
Brittanyl: “But to be fair she still was under the surgery effects.”
Carniefe: “This story just proves that even the “best” of us can have
some lower moments in our career.” Honestly, her best song is
“Firework.” Yuh know-uh, the one where she’s like: baby im uh fieeeeee uh
work!” And I should know! I'm uh swifty. yayyyy.”

MUSIC TODAY YEETARATZI-STORM
Today we’ve been introduced to hundreds of amazing songs and artists. in this magazine, so
far, we have touched upon the Arctic Monkeys, The Weeknd, and Lana Del Rey. But now
we're going to take a deep dive on the classic’s.
Lots of people have their
own opinion on today's
music, some say it’s better
but an overwhelming amount
a no “Music today is worse
than it was in the past”: The
Debate
So let’s see what differences
may drive this thought.
I will not argue that modern music is all the same; it's all just four chords, that' 'lyrics are so
crass and repetitious nowadays,' or any other familiar and strangely unevidenced cliche. For
instance, while many Coldplay songs have a similar feel, no one can listen to the 'Best of Fats
Domino' album and not notice that at least three tracks have the same instrumental. After all,
we have to bring Taylor Swift here, she really needs to switch it up. No one wants to hear
about your boyfriend. Also, we get it already: you’re obsessed with your exes, but honestly,
that sounds like your problem. It’s easy to see why they broke up with you. NO ONE LIKES
YOU TAYLOR.
But, to be honest, none of these are
Grammy worth. So enough complaining,
lets understand why the music just isn’t
the same. “Much of the time, it has to do
with context, memories, and history.
Music is strongly tied on a societal level to
the time in which it came out, and on a
personal level to individual memories.”:
The Oxford Blue
And I entirely agree
for example, The Beatles came out in a time when most music had a jazz element, and
when music was more scarce. This ment their new look into music with a rock style stood
out compared to the jazz norm, making them increasingly popular. This is especially true
when we associate music with specific experiences. That is why TikToks of the top 10 songs
from ten years ago are so popular: curiosity about which songs were popular in 2013, but
more crucially, the ability to relive 2013 through those songs. So music artists, if you are
reading this, make your song new. Different from the others, and release it in a crisis, add
elements from older songs, bringing memories
