Stephen 30,423 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 cuzz she genuinely likes his music and admires his talent and they got along well, and she's pretty naive sometimes. She strives to see the good in people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 97,985 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 She said she was in Chicago and decided to put him in there yes, this is her official answer If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STDMNC 368 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Probably because she wanted to. She likes him amid whatever the GP and media says about him, it'd be like asking why did her and MJ work on a project before he died. + Robert's situation really fit the theme of the song.

Joemayzin 4,021 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I remember hearing in an interview that she wanted to make an awesome R&B song and she needed the king of R&B to make it right! Don't quote me but I legit remember her saying that hahaha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koreku 2,387 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I don't know. I genuinely feel that this was a bad choice on her part. You don't deserve a point of view if the only thing you see is you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Temptation 11,209 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 First and foremost, Do What U Want is Gaga's love letter to R&B. So she wanted the King of R&B to give it his blessing (Gaga only works with legends). Secondly, she seems to like supporting artists from Chicago. Remember her collaboration with Chi town rapper Wale? Lastly, R Kelly plays the role of the media in the song. You know, the media which tried to destroy his career? And hers. So it's like a pop culture soap opera, with the audience in the middle going "Oh no she didn't!" Both R Kelly and Gaga are very operatic in their performances. The decision to have Terry Richardson direct the video, who famously worked with Beyonce and Miley Cyrus, only adds to the epic Greek comedy-tragedy of it all. This song is so confounding. It's a "**** me" song as much as it's a "**** you" song. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quartz 12,535 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 If I remember correctly, they have just finished mastering for the solo version and they had to present it to the label in a day or two. DJWS suddenly had an idea and asked Gaga if it's OK if he called some people. Gaga gave him the go ahead and DJWS sent the song to R Kelly's camp and in just a day, he got a copy of R Kelly singing his verse. It was all spontaneous, no planning, Gaga and R Kelly did not even record together. I guess Interscope picked the version with R Kelly in it which I am grateful for because that version slays, disregarding the history and just looking at it as a song. Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
