Well that's a subjective opinion they are good albums but there are one or few songs that people are most likely to skip, it's not that the track is bad it's just it doesn't hook on to you as easily as the others 

I get what you mean, but EPs usually accompany albums, and what if Gaga wants to start something new?

For me personally it's because I don't know what the difference between an EP and LP is, and everyone keeps talking about an EP so I just go with it but truly I have no idea what I'm talking about 

Spoiler

EP (up to 7 songs per album) abbreviated for "Extended Play"

It's not tho. It's too long with two many songs and Gaga referenced BTW as her third album

It is and it isn't, when combined on the fame it's a reissue but standalone it's borderline an EP especially on length on the album if it's 8 tracks but less than half an hour it's an EP, Gaga considers it her 2nd album because it's a new body of work that could stand on its own

Uh Red Wine... Convict... Gah Gah...

If you mean Gagas wikipedia page it says that it's an EP it's because Interscope chose to release it as an EP to boost the The Fame sales, but Gaga herself and the most fans considers it as a separate album.

An EP is usually 3-5 songs and/or between 20-30 minutes long tho.

It would be so smart for a Joanne re-release w an EP imo (but like TFM... like can get it with Joanne or without, but they connected)

like add the cure, 6-7 more songs, a single or two, reinvigorate Joanne, add more attention to the tour (even tho we kno the sales are flawless :hor:), boost Joanne's impact on the music scene

Lol sis. EP is a short album. It's more popular with indie artists but pop stars use it to extend their albums sometimes ex. TFM, Cannibal by Kesha, Paradise by Lana
