Higher 2,406 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 This article tells no lies. Finally feeling free for the night, I got no worries. Finally got a claim on my life, baby, c'est la vie. ☄️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciccone Madonna 1,362 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I believe her best record is ARTPOP and especially the title track. When a ship sinks, you can say shits about it more easily. Thats what happened with ARTPOP. Apart the first 4 songs on the Fame, all the other are totally forgettable tunes and sound quite boring today. ARTPOP s opening track Aura is great song, also Venus, Guy and Applause are great tracks. Some may say overproduced but the whole essence of album is a psychedelic night in the club. Dope is one of a kind song for gagas discography. Mary Jane Holland has great production single worthy. If ARTPOP sold 5millions you would all praise it to heavens.

And ARTPOP is a good album, but not better than her previous. There are too many cringe-worthy lyrics. The ARTPOP era was a MESSS from beginning to end. Oh dear lord you're one of those "Donatella shouldn't exist" type of people. Not even gonna bother. I'm sorry, but I believe it is equal to her previous albums. And all of her albums have cringeworthy lyrics. It is not something singled out to ARTPOP. ARTPOP has many great lyrics as well. And that does not make it unenjoyable. People can enjoy music without everything else. I'm just now listening to music released in 2004 and 2008. And I have music even older than that, so I think that argument is not only null an void, but completely stupid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klou 2,414 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 ARTPOP is her most consistently good album other than TFM. I get the impression that this article was written by somebody that was easily influenced by the bad media the album got. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

freebit 6,240 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 4 hours ago, etron said: Yes, this annoyed me the most about the article. You don't get many people telling Kanye to shut up about his art. They tell him to shut up about a lot of things, but they would never silence his art. I think there's inherent sexism in the expectation that female pop stars should just "shut up and sing." Which is exactly why I want Gaga to keep layering her art with all kinds of subtext and talking about it in interviews. Because it's a hell of a lot more interesting than her talking about her engagement or her dogs. !!! It's such a narrow view of how female artists should present themselves and their work. I mean, sometimes Gaga's explanations puzzle me, but I love that she explains why she did something (like that segment she did on Sirius XM that explained each track on ARTPOP). Even if she might come off pretentious to some, her points are often interesting and thought provoking. It's like these people would rather have a Jennifer Lawrence type who sits around and talks about her favorite food & her farts. Or just only sing about partying, sex, and relationships in a very conventional way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mic 1,415 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I mean there are no lies. She is a pop legend, I wish she acknowledged that and celebrated that. Her career could be hard but she created legendary fantasy with her TF(M) and part of the other albums. why biggest talents always have to have so many issues? While basics just go for it and get praise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regiment 901 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Y'all up in here acting like Gaga creates these complex artistic masterpieces when she's singing about seashell bikinis and tans in Taipei. Get a grip, dolls! Her music is pretty safe, the one thing that's extremely creative is her persona. That's it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need a f*ucking era to enjoy music. There doesn't need to be music videos or high fashion or anything. I just need music. There's nothing else I need. Please don't turn around and agree with me if you're going to use the "the era sucked so the music sucks" argument. Yes, but the the good lyrics outweigh the bad, unless you want to take an entire song and album completely serious. Though Venus, Donatella, and whatever other songs you'd want to mention are probably not to be taken seriously. This argument would be much better if you were, I don't know, talking about The Fame Monster, which had a lot of serious songs. or were ment to be taken seriously. And what's wrong with using something that you've used before? I've drawn things I've drawn before. I've recycled. I've reused lyrics. I've rewritten sh!t. I see nothing wrong with Aura being bought from other artists or Zedd and Madeon reusing their old crap. That doesn't make it automatically awful. Plus, Gaga saw something in these instrumentals, and wanted to use them. And if I remember correctly, people were PRAISING Gaga like a goddamn Goddess for reusing Earthquake in FoHL.

Deliver on the promises you make Gaga promised so much ahead of ARTPOP's release - an all-singing-all-dancing app, a third video to complete the Paparazzi and Telephone trilogy, and even a second part to the album. The first turned out to be a complete flop, and the other two never materalised. The moral of the story here? Either don't make promises you can't keep, or blinking well deliver on them if you want to keep your fans on side. Gagz, please read.
