Quartz 11,923 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Don't you find it absolutely amazing that for the three decades of her career, only Gaga had been so overtly compared to Madonna? And I'm not even thinking about the bad negative/plagiarist stuff. I'm referring to the impact they have/had on pop culture. I don't think you guys really appreciate the impact Madonna had during her golden eras (yes, eraS - she had multiple). She was undisturbed on her throne until Gaga came along. That's a massive accomplishment to be seen side by side with the queen of pop! Like, it's really crazy! Everytime I see people comparing them, I feel good because Gaga has to be at least in Madonna's league to be even mentioned. She's going to be up there with the legends guys. We stan a legend in the making. Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitter 14 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I know being compared to someone is annoying, but I think Gaga took it as a compliment back in 2008-2009. Being compared to what society views as the Queen of Pop is huge in the beginning of someone’s career. Her attitude, energy, fashion, music, and vocals must of been strong for her to surpass Britney & Xtina. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is absolutely fascinating because no one will compare her to madonna if she didn't have that something. Even on Gaga's supposed declined, she still has that something. Yeah, they are on a whole other level over brit and xtina Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm referring to their impact and their star quality. That I can measure and they both have comparative levels.

Yeah, they are on a whole other level over brit and xtina She doesn't like to be compared to Madonna anymore. Which is a good thing in my opinion. I personally think she has better artistic achievements than Madonna. We know this fact from her interview with Zane Lowe, she got so pissed when Zane Lowe compared her to Madonna. She said "I wouldn't make that comparison at all, I write my own songs, etc." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, I think they're both great with different respective crafts with similar trajectories to fame.

Gaga wasn’t belittling Madonnas artistic talents (she actually started her statement by praising her to death). She was just saying she’s a real artist that puts a lot of effort on her work and doesn’t deserve to be compared to someone else and be called reductive and whatnot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramovic 1,552 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 The fact about Gaga which  makes me cringe sometimes is that she takes so much credit for her songwriting and producing skills but we all know that she also buyed instrumentals and took lyrics from father John misty... I think this is not a bad thing at all but why is she always mentioning that? There are also other artists who produce and write their own music and I don’t know, it’s just exaggerated sometimes    Especially when it comes to madonna.
