PopBitch 1,218 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Different could be experimental. Experimenting means that you are trying something new, and guess what? Different. The reason why something is different is because you haven't seen such things before. And Gaga incorporate many "different" things into ARTPOP.I find ARTPOP the least experimental of Gaga's music.

Whispering 18,865 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I think we have several definitions and interpretations going on here in this thread. There is a difference between Experimental Music as a genre and an artist being experimental with their music....either in pop or in mainstream music.

MelbHawker 6,583 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 It really isn't.It's an eccentric Pop mess. Sometimes I feel like you go against the obvious truth of the matter to differentiate yourself etc etc. You're entitled to your opinion of course.. but ARTPOP was never intended to be an experimental album, it's commercial pop that's come straight from Gaga's mind/heart. Vocally it didn't give us anything we hadn't heard before. The songwriting was quite similar to that of her previous albums. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jjang 2,262 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Once again, I am talking about a rape EDM song. Not something that Madonna did years ago. And is not hopping on a trend, because even taking into account EDM's popularity, no current artist thought of incorporating a very serious topic like rape on EDM styles.That is so ridiculous. The wall you've created which separates electronic music from the rest of the music world does not exist. Not everyone had the misfortune of being raped, therefor, they did not create a song addressing his or her raper. Madonna incorporated very serious and dark topics onto her Pop - EDM album MDNA one year before Gaga. MDNA should be an experimental pop album in your book then. Anyway, I can't wait for Gaga's Legacy section in Wikipedia to be updated : "She was the very first (!) person to sing about a topic revolving around a personal incident of rape through an EDM song. Such thing has never been done before and therefor contemporary critics hailed her for her artistic bravery and experimental genius. After ARTPOP, trashier versions of the album were furthermore created by artists like Miley Cyrus"Credit & Sources : Enigma's thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, is not a wall or separation that I created, the ones that made a wall separating EDM and serious topics are most musicians. Gaga on the other hand is breaking that wall and sharing very negative serious aspects of her life, with a style of music that is usually reserved for partying or just easy listening. The fact that Madonna did this or that, does not take away from the fact that Gaga is trying something very new and unsual(and yes different and unusual could be experimental). People that make this type of music are very rare, specially in the mainstream world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyliesChild 16,907 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I'm so done with some of you If you're on this GAGA site stop insulting her work and just log off. When you reach her level and actually see how difficult it was to release diverse music, you can criticize all you want, but while you're just someone freely judging whatever the **** you want behind your computer screen for hours, just judge people at your level They aren't hating her they are just stating the obvious.

GloZell Green 11,723 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 They aren't hating her they are just stating the obvious.Yes but they're bringing their **** about other artists here. They're different artists as everyone would say, and "experimental" in different ways. ARTPOP wasn't experimental, it was different.

yourfaves 317 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 ARTPOP was not experimental. Same Gaga songwriting. Right on par with contemporary sound. And that's all it is.The thing about ARTPOP was that it wasn't intended to be any particular. She has described all her music as ARTPOP, a genre. This would be like Katy Perry releasing an album titled POP or any artist releasing an album titled COUNTRY, R&B, EDM. It's intentionally vague. She didn't want to be put in a box like she was the first three albums, all of which are ARTPOP but also other concepts. ARTPOP's concept is that it doesn't have one. The songs are ones she wants to make come from the core of her person, which is ART and POP. It's Gaga continuing to be Gaga, therefore not experimental.
