Ray of Light 8,134 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 It's not her worst album. It contains two future classics, possibly three. It's fresh and stands aside anything else released around its time. Unlike Art pop, which is her "worst". The critics, general music listeners and many other fans agree. Sorry some are emotionally attached, that's just the way it is! :sistrens: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMonster 1,806 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 The Fame is my favorite Gaga album. If you're just going to say "It's basic", please kindly leave this thread. Thank you. It is the most trashy gaga album. no thoughtful lyrics, no over to top quality beats. just simple catchy pure mainstream pop. And I do not like pop at all... The reason why I became a little monster during BTW era is that. She put more meaning into her music, and she evolved from mainstream pop to pop-rock, electronica, gothic pop etc. The difference is simply in there. Fame can be a Katy Perry album, nobody would bat eye if Katy Perry did Fame like songs. But it is so obvious that Born This Way and ARTPOP smell like Lady Gaga to the core. Of course this is my idea. Nobody has to agree or anything so please do not quote me like "ARTPOP is flop Fame sales blah blah" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lona Delery 7,214 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I recently read an ARTPOP review which stated "Though, ARTPOP is still better than the whole non-singles of The Fame" Which sums it up pretty good. Most non-singles of TF are filler and/or quite bad Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleBoot 27 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 The Fame to me is a "young" album of a budding pop star still a work in progress -- but not her worst at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HausOfMark 4,276 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I personally think its because we are used to now hearing Born This Way and ARTPOP. She has improved on her craft of music and how to make it. She has improved in so many ways on the sound of music and the way of crafting it. So obviously when you listen to BTW and ARTPOP which are improved and better crafted music, The Fame will sounds "bad". Yet, in 2008, that did sound really good and was the best of that time. It all has to do with growing and improving. -Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nino 12 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 TF set a new standard for pop so looking back on it, it just feels standard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creyk 17,817 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 To answer the OP, most people consider TF the "worst" because it's not artistic/deep liker her following work, and contains lots of "filler" songs. I for one enjoy her lighthearted songs like Summerboy and Boys Boys Boys, they are so chill and amazing. Every song on the album is great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornAsUnic0rn 2,097 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Fixed I like The Fame a lot, but... Summerboy Brown Eyes the mess that goes like ''bang bang blah bah and rich'' or something like that :madge: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monster2015 1,117 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 lol what are you smoking? all of her main hits came from this album...maybe because it didnt debut at #1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donatello 129 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 They don't listen to it anymore so they think it's irrelevant. Imo it's her closest album to being called a 'masterpiece' and it's no coincidence that The Fame is her only album with a grammy (TFM's grammy is only for the vocals).
