Honestly just found out about this artist today, but I think I'm in love. I usually am not a big fan of modern female singers -- I'm not sexist or anything, it's just rare that I find one whose music really resonates with me. Hell, last one I can remember myself listening to regularly was Mazzy Star. But anyway, I love Lana's style, she's got that magic touch, I don't know what it is, but her music is just powerful. I think she's an amazing artist, and am extremely surprised that I hadn't heard of her until today. She's also gorgeous and has some pretty awesome videos.

Here are some examples of her work.

Same here. I look at videos like hers, and then videos like Nicki Minaj's "A$$" and see that it has over 5 times as many views, and all I can do is shake my head.

You realise Nicki Minaj is the voice of our generation, right?

I don't generally enjoy that type of music; but I do like most of her songs.

That I find sad because you let something like that sadden you. I choose to look to the positive and enjoy her music. Though I'd rather she kept rapping rather than moving over to pop, but what can you do.

There's nothing redeeming in Nicki Minaj at all. I don't know what proverbial crack pipe your smoking but you are on something I want no part of.

My sentiments exactly. When it comes to the degeneration of an industry I love and hold so dear, it's not a matter of opinion anymore. I dislike deathmetal, but I still respect the opinions of people who like it. People have different tastes. However, what the **** is this and how the hell can anyone call it music? I honestly don't understand it in the least.

Please be so kind next time to just mention the video's name, so we can quit posting it on here, and giving it more views when people are curious as to what you posted :). But I can't agree more.

Duly noted. I'm just glad I'm not alone :D.

Though I've got to admit, I'm surprised to have even found a Nicki Minaj fan here on GameSpot. I thought the closest anyone came to the mainstream here was Lady Gaga.

Only song of her's I really like is Off to the Races. Her other songs are pretty catchy, but for the most part they're all too depressing.

That whole quivering voice thing she does is awful. there are way more talented singers that attempt it and actually pull it off. also her name, Lana Del Rey? your real name is Elizabeth Grant, name changes and pseudonyms are for rappers:roll:

Thats a stupid reason to not like someone. Also I am sure Lady Gaga is real hurt.

She sounds so depressed, when i see her i think "for god's sake cheer up you daft cow". From what i've been told the first half of her album is good but the second half is a let down.

I knew like 2 years ago, before the media started covering her and nobody knew who she was. Her music is ok, nothing to get jazzed about, 6/10 to me.
