Honestly, I remember being on here when it came out and people saying it was better than TFM. The promo/videos/release is what made it a mess, not the music. And anyone who went to the ARTRAVE can clearly see that the music properly fit into her world and aesthetic.

I gave it a read and yes, they both laid out good points. Its highs are good while its lows could be interpreted as dismal. Still, a lot of the album has grown so much on me and I believe the title track is still her strongest title track to date. The kaleidoscope was a good way of putting it because really the themes of the album was all over the place.

That's one way to put it.

I enjoyed reading this. ARTPOP is still a great album, and was my most enjoyable album to listen to in full up until that time. There are aspects of the era and album I don't enjoy, but it's still a great album.

ARTPOP is shapeless, ugly in the bad way, messy but still good. She made a j-pop rave album about performance art, rape, gays tanning and sex at the beach with no connection or cohesion but I've got to tell you something: some songs really worked live. Especially Swine and Dope. They felt like completely different songs live. 

 

Also, despite ARTPOP being ugly, it's hilarious. Watching her going from screaming UR **** on Venus, syllabizing guy as if it was a mantra on G.U.Y and singin' nonsense over a cheap trap beat on Jewels N' Drugs to listen to art students essays turned into pop songs bangers, all mixed with a little bit of  pig squealing over instrumentals meant for top 40-wanna-be artists is a LAUGH. ARTPOP should've won Best Comedy Album at the GRAMMYs, I swear. It's fun.

I don't get what it is that people think ARTPOP is weird, it's one of the most generic albums ever (lesbionest)

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

So they have time for all these random articles about her but not enough to post dat 1000/100 review score for MC? :nails:

The fact that the album has everyone positively shook 3 years later says enough about the album's legacy, in all honesty. Flop? Binch where?
