At any point in your career, a Number 1 album is important. The ultimate vindication.
But for two artists in particular - Miley Cyrus and Lana Del Rey - their upcoming album campaigns offer fascinating insights into what it takes to play the big pop girl game in 2023 on your own terms, and what the success of a Number 1 album could mean for their careers right now.
Of the two, Miley is obviously the veteran - with her years as a Disney teen idol, she's been in the industry at the highest level for well over 15 years (!), while Lana has been a cult icon since her heavily influential 2012 LP Born To Die helped to change the face and sound of pop music as we know it.
With Endless Summer Vacation (Miley's eighth studio album) dropping March 10th and Did you know there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd.? (Lana's eighth major label release, her ninth overall if you count Lana Del Ray) now being issued on March 24, we've been spared a head-to-head battle from Number 1, but it's still worth analysing these album campaigns and what their success would mean to their artist.

Let's take Miley and Endless Summer Vacation first. The most immediate factor in Miley possibly taking the lead for the Number 1 album is that, well, she has the Number 1 song in the UK, if not the entire world, right now. Flowers has so far reigned supreme at the top of the Official Singles Chart for six consecutive weeks, and is still ahead for a seventh. It's the single that has returned Miley to the top of the charts after a near decade absence, and the fact that the song has been able to speak for itself (Miley has done absolutely no promotion or live gigs in support of the single) has been one of the biggest

during their marriage with the “Flowers" lyrics, but the lyrics to “Muddy Feet” seem pretty specific. The release of “Flowers,” the first single off of Cyrus's new album Endless Summer Vacation, and its attendant music video was greeted with an immediate flood of and that Cyrus was alluding to the (alleged) cheating in the lyrics. Some of the rumors seemed a little far-fetched (he supposedly slept with how many women?), and it wasn't until the full album dropped on March 10 that fans who believed the cheating rumors got a little vindication. To be specific, on the ninth track on the album, “Muddy Feet (featuring Sia),” Cyrus sings, “And you smell like perfume that I didn't purchase/Now I know why you've been closing the curtains (Uh-uh)/Get the fuck out of my house.” Well, yes, that does seem a bit more direct than in “Flowers” when she sings, “I can buy myself flowers/Write my name in the sand.” Social media has taken this story and run with it—but not everything is based in fact.By Other telling lyrics on “Muddy Feet” include the second verse, which goes, “Back and forth/Always questioning my questioning/Get thе fuck out of my head with that shit,” and the second pre-chorus, “You've watered the weeds and you killed all the roses/Worthy arrives when the other door closes.” Drag him, Miley. And “Muddy Feet” and “Flowers” aren't the only tracks on Endless Summer Vacation that seem to reference a certain failed relationship.
