What is with the Obsession with Red One?

What is with the obsession with Red One? I mean, I understand that he created Gaga's biggest hits but most of you seem to be siding with whatever he says and never think about what Gaga may want  (as far as LG5 goes). For example, he revealed that one of his songs was scrapped as a lead single, and you are all pissed off acting like the song was perfect without even hearing it, and being mad at Gaga without considering that she simply did not like the song or that she may have made a better first single with a different producer. This obsession was Red One has become so big that at this point many of you have more faith in him then on Gaga (who is supposed to be the main artist).

He produced Just Dance, Poker Face, Bad Romance, Judas, Hair and on and on.

He's the reason why most of us are here, so I do get why most are pissed that he might not be on LG5 despite the teasers from Gaga.

But after he said that the new songs may sound like old but just "evolved", I'm not really too pressed about him not having eight songs on LG5 anymore

Because MeltdownDaily hasn't had this much motivation since ARTPOP,

Did someone confirm that all his work is scrapped? Cause he didn't say something like that.

I mean it more like that he has instead of all eight, just one or two on LG5.

I think this site would nuke itself when he would say that he isn't a part of LG5 anymore

Leave RedOne Alone!

Because he's the reason Gaga has immaculate discography.. Got it??

The music he does with Gaga is amazing.. I feel sorry for everyone who thinks that those 'no-tempo' Mark songs can be popular.. I hope i'm wrong

He has made horrible songs with other artists so the main talent is Gaga. Also, you have no clue how Mark's songs are going to sound like.

Okay, I get that the meltdowns are extra right now, but tbh it's Gaga that's sending mixed signals for the 1000th time. Last year, even late 2014 her statements were "I'm working on my old self like a cadaver, it feels really good, it's great, we (RedOne and I) make magc, we wear our shades at night" I mean you can't just attribute the disappointment to the fact he produced her biggest hits.

It's just Gaga pissing us off for having so much material that it's really up in the air. I mean he is bitter, but apparently he was left in the dark, and he spent a year working with her. Remember when he said they are going to write 50-100-200 songs until they have it perfected. Obviously, he was passionate and devoted, so it's a real bummer for him not knowing what's going on now.

I kindly remind you that we don't know for sure he was scrapped off LG5 but he confimred changes were happening AGAIN. So fingers pointed at Gaga, not him, tbh. She is the one with original ARTPOP, Act II, first LG5, currently working on another LG5 or whatever. I mean it's just annoying with her already. 

Rihanna's approach is much better with music. Yeah she has pretty terrible songs sometimes, but we have 8 full albums, don't we? And when you have that worth of material released, it's easy to ignore the mishaps and enjoy the good stuff.

yes, we dont know how will their songs sound, but we know how his previous work sounds.. and it's not very satisfying

have you heard of bad romance? godejandro? monster? just dance?

gaga x redone sold about 60-70 million singles combined

For once I actually agree with you lol

Most of it seems to be rooted in fan's insecurity about Gaga's commercial prospects. People are saying she won't get hits without RedOne despite the fact she's had several. Out of her thirteen top twenty hits, six were made with him. Yes it's a large amount, but it's also less than half. She's more than capable of succeeding without him. People are underestimating Gaga and putting their faith in others. It's not all about popularity and I find it weird that so many people on here have that as their priority. Plus, as I said in the other thread, he hasn't had a hit in like five years... Clearly Gaga is the special ingredient as far as that goes.

I totally understand also that some people are just fans of his work. That's fine. But for whatever reason, it obviously just didn't work out. If she stays working with the same people forever, it's possible that we might not be able to really get to know her full potential as an artist... Madonna was constantly switching up her sound from album to album by working with a range of producers and she has one of the most consistent discographies of any pop-star - both commercially and critically.

I wouldn't mind if Gaga had songs with RedOne on the album, but from what he said they were making songs similar to the old stuff, and Gaga has always been about growing and evolving. That's what I want to see as well.

Thankfully not everyone has your taste. Gaga should be fine.
