Monsterious 26,867 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Lady Gaga may be pop’s version of multiple personality disorder, but on her latest record, a prominent stab at genre promiscuity can’t hide the voice and the heart at the core of her talents. Many artists have an ARTPOP in their catalog, an album so off-base that it forever defines their output into “before” and “after.” In Gaga’s case, the “before” was pop perfection: a string of endlessly danceable, empowering singles that raised her profile from one of many experimental singer-songwriters eking out life in New York City to Mother Monster. The “after” was a calculated attempt at rehabbing an image that musically had begun to succumb to excess Counts for MC http://consequenceofsound.net/2016/10/album-review-lady-gaga-joanne/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is where many pinpoints that the artist has improved/declined significantly, changed their genre/image, etc. Joanne was a return to form for Gaga at least in musicality and was also noted for not being extra (i.e., stripped-down) Flyin' like a 1000 Doves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leaf 2,429 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Quote The answer of course is almost certainly somewhere in the middle. Gaga isn’t naked on Joanne, but she has stripped off the flank steaks and AutoTune. The result is a work that may not close any circles, but instead start the pattern of a new shape: something weird, but compelling, and largely authentic. Gaga may have an ARTPOP in her catalog, but now she has a Joanne too, and that’s a good thing. Essential Tracks: “Diamond Heart”, “Hey Girl” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
