The Brockington Review
nprfreshair: Ken Tucker says “There’s something weirdly mean about all the negative press Lana Del Rey has received before Born To Die was even released. It’s like high-school level meanness, directed at someone who wants to be a star and is really going for it. It’s like being punished for ambition.” Lana Del Rey appeared out of the blue and turned the musical world around. The ‘gangster Nancy Sinatra’ (as she describes herself) seems to be a paradox; a simple Google search reveals pretty much everything about her, yet she and her songs remain a compelling mystery to the fans. Her album Born To Die was released 30 January 2012 in the UK. Have you had a listen yet? - L.H.
