Lana Del Rey's post was this:
"Now that Ariana, Camila, Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Kehlani and Beyonce have sung enough songs about being sexy, about nudity, betrayal, etc. can I go back and sing the incarnation, be beautiful, in love? even when the connection is not perfect?
Can I sing what I want without being crucified? Am I tired of female writers or singers who say I give ?shine to abuse?? When in fact, I'm just a singer singing to reality and what I see around me are emotionally abusive relationships all over the world. "- said Lana and followers opposed her comparison and were caught with the fact that most singers mentioned were women of color.

After all the comments and reactions she received, the singer thought that an answer was needed to close the whole debate created for nothing.
"Let's be clear, I know you want to confuse things a little bit. I love these artists very much and I know them, so I mentioned them. I just said I would like to have the same freedom of expression without prejudice. hysterical. And by the way, the singers I mentioned are my favorites, but since you definitely want to find something, I'm telling you that doesn't change the fact that I haven't had the same opportunity to express myself and what I feel without "You're wrong. If you want to link something like this to racism, that's your problem, but not what I said."
In the comments addressed to her, there were many who crucified her for the fact that she mentioned women of color, accusing her of being racist, but the truth is that they simply came out of the context of what Lana wrote.
"My last clarification. When I said 'people who look like me' I was talking about people who don't look strong or necessarily smart, or like they have everything under control. It was a kind of protection for people who have a little more personality. fragile and this has nothing to do with white women. "- she concluded.
