Lana Del Rey is the name Elizabeth Woolridge Grant, born in 1985 and raised in upstate New York, took on after she moved to Manhattan in 2005 to chase a music career. The payoff came when "Video Games", a slow, sad, cinematic ballad, went viral online and landed her a deal with Polydor and Interscope. Her whole aesthetic was right there: melancholy romance, old-fashioned glamour, and a head full of '50s-to-'70s Americana.
Born to Die, in 2012, set those torch songs against moody, hip-hop-inflected beats and went to number one all over the world, with "Summertime Sadness" creeping up as a sleeper hit; it holds the record for the longest run on the Billboard 200 by a woman. Ultraviolence and Lust for Life both topped the US charts, and "Young and Beautiful", written for The Great Gatsby, picked up a Grammy nomination.
Norman Fucking Rockwell!, in 2019, was the one the critics fell hardest for, a woozy, drifting record that earned her an Album of the Year nomination and carried "Doin' Time" and "The Greatest". The acclaimed "A&W" and the dreamy "Say Yes to Heaven" followed in 2023, alongside Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd.
