I had no idea these two had any kind of relationship, but apparently they shared a manager a while ago, played in the same spots, and partied at Chateau Marmont together. However, something really bad must have happened at one point, as a new/old Lana Del Rey’s song entitled ‘So Legit’ has just surfaced, slamming the pop diva in the face with terrible lyrics:
‘Stefani, you suck/I know you’re selling 20 million/Wish they could have seen you when we booed you off in Williamsburg.’
Wow! Some true bad blood! It is not clear when this song was recorded, some say around 2008-9, but it certainly means one thing, Lana Del Rey was very angry about Lady Gaga’s growing fame, so angry she wrote a whole song about how bad Lady Gaga is and how ‘legit’ she is:
‘You’re looking like a man, you’re talking like a baby/How the fuck is your song in a Coke commercial, crazy?/I don’t get it’
‘How the fuck would you go switch it up and then replace me?/I don’t get it, I’m so legit’
The song leaked on Tuesday, but it has since disappeared, only Perez Hilton still has it for some obscure reasons, and I managed to repost it here. It’s so slow-druggy-sad, with Del Rey’s voice drawling all over the place, that it’s actually kind of painful… and no Lana, you can’t be Cat Power! And if it’s a Lana Del Rey imitation, it is well done.
Everybody is talking about it, but after all, this may be a complete sham built by Gaga’s army of little monsters in order to have an excuse to assasinate Del Rey? Who knows?
Here is the full text:
‘So Legit’
You were the freak king of the piercing shop
All the girls thought they could sing, but they’re really not shit
I don’t get it
You’re looking like a man, you’re talking like a baby
How the fuck is your song in a Coke commercial, crazy?
I don’t get it
Your taste once exquisite
What happened to Brooklyn, what happened to New York?
What happened to my scene, what happened to punk rock, rock?
You called me the queen of the downtown scene, babe
How the fuck would you go switch it up and then replace me?
I don’t get it, I’m so legit
Tell me, was it ’cause I wasn’t platinum in jewels?
That perhaps you thought I was a little bit even uncool
Kid, was that it?
Stefani, you suck, I know you’re selling twenty million
Wish they could have seen you when we booed you off in Williamsburg
You’re hurt, I know my words don’t hurt, yeah
Oh, girl, I see you walking ’round in your pearls
Thinking that you’re number one
You’re so funny, ’cause honey, you’re not
What happened to Brooklyn, the last frontier?
They said you could make it anywhere if you can make it here
But where, no magic in the air
What happened to Brooklyn, what happened to our scene, baby?
Have we all gone Gaga crazy?
Remember when the streets used to be dangerous and we were born bad
And we were born bad?
Punk rock, punk rock
The boys used to punch each other in the face and girls were walking around wasted
And everyone had a good night, come back in sunlight
Punk rock, rock, rock
