Overall: The article is only barely above the minimum length, and could easily be made more concise. The sentences "After Norman Fucking Rockwell! (2019), things took a "huge turn" and has been "going down that path aggressively". Musically and privately, her fear turned out to be the circumstance of being "scared into making safe choices" but instead taking "cool-off"s after releases to "reevaluate things"." are extremely confusing. Furthermore, the nominated hook does not meet WP:DYKINT—there is no reason it is intriguing to an uninformed audience who have no idea who Lana Del Rey is. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:54, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, AirshipJungleman29. Del Rey just announced the album and unfortunately hasn't given detailed interviews about it. I did just clean up the article quite a bit based on what Background information critics have covered in the context of this album's announcement. I guess the hook could be turned into this to make it more interesting:

ALT1 ... that Lana Del Rey, who is known as an alt-pop artist, will release her first official country album, Lasso, this year?
