Tunnel widens Lana Del Rey's collaborator pool again while keeping her at the center: she wrote every song, reuniting with Jack Antonoff and bringing in Drew Erickson and Mike Hermosa, and the credits fill out with guest writers like Jon Batiste and SYML on their features. Several tracks sample her own earlier songs, so even the interpolations point back to her, underscoring how fully she authors her catalog.

Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd is the eighth major-label studio album by Lana Del Rey, released in March 2023. Sprawling and experimental at nearly 80 minutes, it weaves piano balladry, folk, gospel, trap, and spoken-word interludes into one of her most ambitious statements. Lana Del Rey wrote every song, reuniting with Jack Antonoff while also working with collaborators like Drew Erickson and Mike Hermosa, and threaded the album with family history, faith, and self-reflection. Guests include Jon Batiste, Father John Misty, Bleachers, SYML, and Tommy Genesis, and several tracks sample her own earlier music. The album earned Album of the Year and Best Alternative Music Album Grammy nominations and was widely ranked among the best releases of 2023.
