Following a string of leaks over the last week, which has seen the premature release of at least 10 new and unreleased Lana Del Rey tracks, a new song has dropped. And this one is a doozy. "So Legit" is a simple acoustic crooner track, but the lyrics reveal that the "Young & Beautiful" singer has some major beef with mother monster Lady Gaga.
"Stefani [Lady Gaga's real name], you suck, I know you're selling 20 million, / Wish they could have seen you when we booed you off in Williamsburg, / You're hurt, I know my words don't hurt," Del Rey sings roughly midway through the song, making it clear who exactly she's talking about.
The entire track, however, is full of biting lyrics aimed toward Gaga, who Del Rey seems to think ruined New York's punk rock music scene, which the two seem to have risen up through together in the early-to-mid 2000s. This becomes abundantly clear through Del Rey's laments about Brooklyn and the punk rock scene wherein "the boys used to punch each other in the face and girls were walking around wasted."
"What happened to Brooklyn, / What happened to our scene, baby? / Have we all gone Gaga crazy?" Del Rey asks in "So Legit."
The song itself is slightly underwhelming. Over a waltzy acoustic guitar, Del Rey warbles the lyrics, really letting the words shine through.

Lady Gaga's little monsters are less than pleased about "So Legit" and have taken to Del Rey's Facebook page to fire off their anger. "What kind of b*tch makes a song about pissing on Gaga when she has 10000x the fan base you will ever have, that's A LOT more people to piss off... don't be a b*tch, you b*tch," wrote one Gaga fan. "That's what you get for dissing the only queen of pop gaga :) 90% of ur fans are monsters now you lost them :| and 50k ppl on twitter! Jealous c*** #lostafan," wrote another angry little monster.
Meanwhile, Del Rey's fans have stuck by her. "We are true fans of Lana, and we will support her forever, we love her so much <3," fans are posting in retaliation.
It's unclear when "So Legit" was recorded. Leaks from Del Rey have included old, unreleased songs and new demos.
