Why do people still compare Gaga to Madonna?

Ronson, Beck are both music powerhouse. Florence is one of the best vocalist.

And that is exactly why I mentioned them. She is aiming for quality this time, not #1 songs.

Madonna is an icon yes, but to say she paved the way for everyone is a bit much. I'm sure Beyoncé and Rihanna and Ciara and Tinashe were more inspired by Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, michael Jackson and others ha

At the pace Gaga is going, she isn't comparable to Madonna anymore back during her earlier years in the 90s. I think Gaga is more similar to Belinda Carlise level.

Lady Gaga has always reminded me of Madonna. It's not bad comparison. She is the queen of pop. Lady Gaga would not be here without her setting the blueprint for female pop singers.

Well Madonna is The Queen of pop, a pioneer, and The one and only to which everyone else after her is compared to, not only Gaga. Her slayage has been unbelievable and not yet matched. As we see today if we think of Gaga. First three years seemed like she maybe could rival M, but then The Star started to fade and today eight years later Gaga is sadly not The number one or hasnt been in years. On comparison M was on Blond Ambition/Vogue point. Still Absolut slayage. (And ppl need to know that MJ and M truly were megahugestars, like Katy+Rihanna+Justin etc combined). M's career was just getting bigger and bigger as opposite to what Gaga is doing. Her first "flop" was Erotica which is far from a flop. And she kept going with it and with success 'till mid 00's, untill her fifties.(ans sence SLAYED The tour etc other aspects) That has never ever happened that a pop star remains succesful for THAT long.

Im not saying Gaga couldnt climb back to success and that all hope is lost, no, she can possible still do it. But looking this moment and past years, she has fallen quite far from M&MJ slayage level. Their status is not just made up, The really were unique.

But why should Gaga even be that? There are many many brilliant artists that werent the absolutely biggest megastars but had an AMAZING career and legacy and become huge legends anyway. The body of work is much more important than only superficial success.

And please don't come for me, I was being polite and Im not trying to put anyone down.

She could fart and somehow, someway, they'll make it about Madonna's twelth studio album MDNA (2012).

It's been there since the beginning since people (even Gaga herself) called her the new Madonna. It will never stop.
