Had a friend saying they're both 'so similar yet so different' (had no idea how to make or take of that :huntyga:)

For some reason comparing and contrasting them feels weird, but I guess it's bound to happen. What do you make of any similarities and differences (or neither :green:)?

Both are unconventional, weird (in their own way), they often wear avant-garde costumes, get akward during interviews. While Gaga music is a lot more universally appealing, both of them meshed different genres in their music. Both had musical projects related to technology/ online apps (ARTPOP and Biophilia).

Gaga's weidrness is more conventional, classier. Gaga's was most comparable to Bjork fashion wise during parts of BTW and ARTPOP eras.

I'd say Gaga is more spontaneous and more likely to drastically switch her aesthetic from era to era than Bjork too. However Bjork audience is much smaller so she doesn't really needs to change much. 

Gaga's main, primar genre is pop flavored by various influences while Bjork's music is experimental at its core.

They’ve both experimented with Jazz.

Alexander McQueen

Both of them are known for making electronic music.

Avant Garde fashion

Meatdress va Swan Dress

 

Differences:

Bjork’s more experimental than Gaga when it comes to her music and visuals. Gaga’s more “mainstream” than Bjork.

 

This is all I could think of for now, I’ll probably add more later on. Funny enough I wrote an essay about this topic like a year ago (more or less).

Björk's music is boundless. Gaga is still tied to commercial success for some extent.

Judas is coming, let the cultural baptism begin.

When I think of Bjork, I think of pure bliss -- she has an unparalled ability to capture the purest essence of any emotion and transmute it into a song. I'm so breathless... lol trying not to get emotional right now :messga:

Comparison: Both fashion taste are avant garde, sweet personalities, experimented with many music genres. Both fanbases has a strong core. 

Contrast: Gaga is tied into a commercial market and has a bigger fanbase.

Similar - none

Different - Gaga's music is actually music, Björk's music is a cachophonic mix of sounds and words casually placed with casually given titles and covers and videos. 

Fight me :party:

This is what everyone thinks of Bjork until they see the light of her eventually. Don't worry sis you'll become a stan in 5 years. :huntyga:
