The album goes from alien glam to heavy metal to religion to country.. it's my least favorite as a concept

But it has "heavy Metal lover " on it. One of my favourite songs from her ever.

Because Gaga hyped it as something it wasn't. The music didn't speak for itself. All that talk about art and pop, and warholian expeditions(which had nothing to do with the music), the app, the fashion, the half assed videos, all the lies. It feels like a bunch of random mediocre song thrown together as Gaga kept screaming "look at my art, I'm an artist!".

TL;DR: It was a hot mess.

It sticks to a subject though. It's about accepting yourself the good with the bad. Gaga cares more about subject and lyrical matter more than sticking to a genre.

Gaga has absolutely no album where she sonically sticks to one sound concept either. Even Fame Monster has the faux gospel darkness of Teeth fall out of the goddamn sky and plow you into the ground.

On topic:

As I said before, I think there's many reasons why ARTPOP kind of went underappreciated.

But a thing that I think was one of the main failures of ARTPOP was the fact it was built up. Hype, yes. But, born This Way, teh Fame Monster, had good foundations and kept getting bigger and bigger.

ARRTPOP was started off as this big thing. It was supposed to be this extremely large and extraordinary project. But it never really amounted.

People can't separate the album/music from all the failures associated with it.

I think that's it. Hype combined with expectation I guess.

I love the album we got BUT I wish it was more conceptual and experimental. ARTPOP is basically pop songs with weird lyrics.

I really hope Gaga ends her contract with Interscope and makes albums that are more than just pop music.

 

Don't come for me :awkney:

 

i 1000% agree! when she spoke about how experimental act II was, my hype was sky high! 

the fearless lady gaga going experimental??? GIVE IT TO ME. :grr: 

instead we got generic-ish bops with, as you said, weird lyrics :derpga:

Pacify Him

It was a very dark time for Gaga. Everybody left her (manager, little monsters, media, friends). Left a very deep wound for her.

I still enjoy the album to this day more than her other albums tho.

I’m getting on your nerves

Idk, it along with Born This Way are my top Gaga albums. Then, Joanne=TFM>The Fame.

I think a lot of people let other unfair evaluations of the album affect their perception of the album.

I love the album. I think it's gonna be her "erotica". Misunderstood at the time but consider a classics after a few years. 

ARTPOP the song is pure electro trip hop classic

The DWUW video wasn’t released because it’s radio airplay was starting to fall and the video was very racy and inappropriate, so i believe Gaga’s team just stopped the release of the video.

They stopped it because R. Kelly tbh :rip:

All you need to know:

"Built by TechHAUS, the technological branch of HAUS OF GAGA, the app itself is a musical and visual engineering system that combines music, art, fashion, and technology with a new interactive worldwide community 00 “the auras.” Altering the human experience with social media, we being ARTculture into POP in a reverse Warholian expedition.

Exploring Gaga’s existence as a cultural interface, the user will share in the “adrenaline of fame” as they build and share their own projects, chat with one another, and watch in real-time on a virtual globe as ARTPOP explodes onto the physical and virtual universe at once on November 11, our “BIG BANG!” On this day HAUS OF GAGA venues with forte to bring the music industry into a new age where art drives pop, and the artist once again is in control of the “icon.”"
