In this episode of Shut Up N Talk, we discuss American sweethearts in music Lana Del Rey and Ethel Cain. In her new track A&W, we hear Lana abandon her romantic quest in a tragic ballad confession followed up by a hip hop beat that calls backs to Lana's early roots over an innuendo reimagined as a catchy chorus. In the second half, we deep dive into Ethel Cain and her hauntingly beautiful concept album Preacher's Daughter and the story that follows the life of a young woman who is murdered and then eaten by her abusive lover. Listen to DJ Queen Mean break down each artist down and compare their parallel expression of American womanhood.

Warning: This episode involves commentary about sexual abuse and descriptions of fictional violent crimes. Listener's discretions advised.
