Lana Del Rey’s Feminism Roast: Glamorous or Problematic?
Lana Del Rey's 2020 Insta letter fiercely defended her vibe as 'the epitome of white woman feminism,' name-dropping Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj to argue she’s just singing about love, despite critics calling her 'pathetic' and racist. From Grammy glory at London's Wembley to internet backlash branding her 'problematic' for her 'conservative Southerner vibe,' Lana doubles down like an indie-rock diva in a Waffle House with a microphone. Her attempt to own emotional abuse lyrics while praising her 'delicate' mystique landed amid allegations that she misses the nuance of Black female artists' long radio struggles.
