In an interview with The Guardian,
Lana Del Rey said: “I wish I was dead already”, citing Amy Winehouse
and Kurt Cobain as heroes. Both of them died at age 27. While this
worrying statement might be a sick way to gain publicity and consolidate
her “dark and edgy” aura, it is also representative of what the “Lana
Del Rey persona” is about: Sex Kitten Programming.
After a failed attempt to launch a musical career as Lizzie Grant,
the singer underwent a “re-tooling” period where she got a new name, a
new persona and a rumored plastic surgery to then re-emerge as Lana Del
Rey. She then signed with Interscope Records – home of countless other
Mind Control-themed artists. Her second album Born to Die was received with great enthusiasm by her fans and heavy criticism by her detractors who claim she is “fake”.
Going beyond the “real or fake” debate, a
common thread found across her work is MK Ultra and Beta Programming (to
know more about this, read this article).
In the video National Anthem,
Lana reenacts Marilyn Monroe singing Happy Birthday to JFK. As noted in
several previous articles, Marilyn Monroe is the prototype of Beta
Programming and served as JFK’s slave for several years.
In the video Ride,
Lana finds “happiness” by getting following a bunch of strangers who do
not seem to care too much about her. While the video was accused of
glamorizing prostitution, it also describes the strange mental state of a
Beta Kitten.
In
the short movie Tropico, Lana’s father is Elvis, her mother is Marilyn
Monroe (Beta Slaves are obsessed with Monroe) and her best friend is
Jesus Christ. As Eve, she bites the apple of original sin (which might
refer to introduction into MK Ultra) and turns into a
stripper/prostitute/ Beta Kitten.
Her third album is entitled Ultraviolence, which is a reference to Stanley Kubrick’s classic movie A Clockwork Orange.
In the movie, ultra-violence refers to the Alex DeLarge’s favorite
pastime: Getting intoxicated, sadistically beating up innocent people
and raping women. Alex is “cured” by the Minister of the Interior with
“aversion therapy” which include mind control techniques such as
drugging the subject, strapping him to a chair, propping his eyelids
open, and forcing him to watch images of violence. Was “ultra” in the
word “ultra-violence” a way for Kubrick to reference MK-Ultra?
The subject matter in her new album is a continuation of her Beta Slave persona. For example, in the title track Ultraviolence, Lana sings “you’re my cult leader” to her abuser; In the song F-cked My Way Up to the Top, Lana prettymuch describes what entertainment industry Kittens are about.
