The countdown is over for the Reyettes [Lana Del Rey fans] as their Queen Lana has released her sixth studio album right on time.

The singer-songwriter began teasing Norman Fucking Rockwell! since early 2018, dropping a number of singles like “Mariners Apartment Complex,” “Venice Bitch,” “Doin’ Time,” “Fuck It, I Love You,” and “The Greatest.” Del Rey co-produced the album with Rick Nowels, Zache Dawes, and Bleachers frontman Jack Antonoff, who contributed to 11 out of the album’s 14 tracks.

In a recent interview with Billboard, Del Rey admitted she was somewhat hesitant to begin working with Antonoff on the project, as she was feeling uninspired at the time he had approached her.

I wasn’t in the mood to write,” she said. “He wanted me to meet him in some random diner, and I was like, ‘You already worked with everyone else; I don’t know where there’s room for me.

The 14 track body of work was announced via Instagram with a post captioned;
