I don't understand why she just doesn't apologize. She posted a 5 minutes video about the situation, and she keeps rambling about stuff, but doesn't say anything new (oh wait, she mentioned the album title, but I don't even remember the name) Worse: she evens end the video with; "if you don't like my post, freak off."
She clearly doesn't understand why people are mad. She compared her poledance-clip from Tropico with the Cellophane poledancing of FKA Twigs, wondering why hers was received as 'whoring' and Twigs' as 'art.' Again she drags WOC to the whole situation, and is repeating her mistake. When I check the commentary on both videos, I see lots and lots of praise. Of course there is always an hater, but why focus on that - when there is good stuff as well?; that's what keeps you going on! I really don't think FKA Twigs got better off, I even think she had to work harder and got much more backlash. But her video is so beautiful, really... You can see that she worked so damn, damn hard to get this amazing result.
I want Lana to focus, or get off social media. The vague poems she is posting, while you are looking at a palm tree or her feet for circa 6 minutes long, doesn't do it for me. BORING! But the fact that she gets lots of fans commenting on it, loving whatever she is saying, should be the reason to go on. Not to impress or overwhelm other artists... especially WOC. Leave everyone alone.
