Lana Del Rey
(Interscope / US)
Lolita in the hood
Lana Del Rey, alias singer and New York model Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, is a true phenomena in the internet age; the practical demonstration of how a cocktail of talent and charisma can result in something highly explosive. She was recently awarded the ‘Brit’ for best International Breakthrough Act, and last year's winner of the Q Award for the Next Big Thing, same category due to the commotion that her first hit Video Games caused: the glamor of the golden age of Hollywood passed through a filter of contemporary pop and the digital culture, with the emphasis on a powerful voice which stands out for its rich tone and long range. “Born to Die”, her first LP as Lana Del Rey, has reached the top of the charts the world over thanks to its dense, slow pop with orchestral arrangements, and the spirit of Elvis Presley and Kurt Cobain watching over her from above.
