Untitled fifth album is the fifth major-label LP release by Lana Del Rey, currently in production.
Background
In December 2015, three months after the release of her third major-label studio album Honeymoon, Del Rey opened up about writing her next record in an interview with NME, saying "I do have early thoughts about what I’d like to do with [the next album]. My label, Interscope, is pretty flexible and open to my records coming out at any time, so I don’t have that pressure. I’m just happy to be able to keep on making music I can stand behind. That’s enough for me."[1]
In January 2017, the song "Love" was registered under the title "Young In Love"[2] to the Harry Fox Agency.[3] The title of the track had been long speculated previous to this due to leaks of information on social media by fans. The track leaked in full on February 18, 2017 before any official announcement had been made regarding the song or the upcoming album by Del Rey or her team, and was rush released onto iTunes later that day. It is confirmed that the album will include guest featured artists and it is set to be released in 2017. About the album, Del Rey stated "I made my first 4 albums for me, but this one is for my fans and about where I hope we are all headed."[4]
Production
It's expected that Del Rey will work with previous producers Rick Nowels and Emile Haynie, both of who worked on "Love" alongside Benny Blanco. On November 4, 2015, long-time collaborator Justin Parker posted an Instagram photo of himself and Del Rey in a studio together, hinting towards potential involvement in new music.[5] Two songs, "Beautiful People" and "Wild One", written by Del Rey and Parker had been registered earlier in the year.
Sound and writing
On February 15, 2016, Billboard posted a short video interview with Del Rey on the Pre-GRAMMY Gala Red carpet opening up about the new records sound. Del Rey explained, that while the album would be in a different direction to her previous record Honeymoon, "it's kinda in the same aesthetic" and "[the fourth major-label studio album] has more to do with just like... I don't know... a clarity of inner dialogue that I feel is coming through better."[6]
Release
The album is rumored to be released in 2017.[7] Promotional posters advertising a new project by Del Rey titled Love, directed by Rich Lee, were found across Los Angeles on February 17, 2017.[8]
The first single, "Love" was released February 18, 2017.
Possible songs
Since the release of Honeymoon, a total of four tracks have been registered with Del Rey as a collaborator and could be featured on the upcoming album.
