Joanne Ha impact!! Gaga's only other album to have an impact section is the fame monster,

yes I know the public can edit wikipedia pages but what is said actually makes sense, it reads:

 

Joanne was placed in a number of year-end lists by publications. Billboard ranked it as the 32nd best album of 2016, adding that the "kitchen-sink pop album" had an "instant-classic breakup ballad" in "Million Reasons", which enabled Gaga to reclaim "her sweet spot with Joanne".[153] Digital Spy's Lewis Corner placed the record at number nine, believing that "simplicity" was the key of the album's success.[154] Joanne was NME magazine's 20th best album of the year, with the publication highlighting how it hearkened back to the stripped-down sound employed by Gaga in her early years as an artist.[155] For Rolling Stone, the album was the seventh best release of 2016, with a writer from the magazine feeling that "Gaga's soft-rock transformation takes the pop star into a new direction without losing her flair for the dramatic and penchant for the kitschy."[156] The album was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards, while "Million Reasons" was nominated for Best Pop Solo Performance.[157] The latter was also one of the award-winning songs at the BMI Awards.[158]

Many journalistic articles noticed the minimalist musical endeavor taken by Gaga in Joanne, in the work of other artists.[159] Andrew Unterberger from Billboard theorized that singer Miley Cyrus' fourth studio album, Younger Now (2017), "sounded familiar upon first reading", because "it's not all that different from the rhetoric espoused by another left-of-center pop star [Gaga] preceding her own voyage back to the middle" and that "Cyrus' new music is taking her down a similar path". According to the article, Gaga—when she realized that the "high-conceptuality" of her previous work led to diminished "commercial returns"—had chosen a "straightforward pop-rock album" like Joanne and her Super Bowl performance "to remind people at all points on the political and social spectrum why she was once a pop star without peer".[160] Speaking of Cyrus' new direction Melissa Engelman from Odyssey noted that she was "taking a cue from [Gaga] as a way to kick off her career apart from Hannah Montana."[161]

While reviewing Kesha's third studio album, Rainbow (2017), Spencer Kornhaber of The Atlantic noted the usage of analogue instruments in lieu of electrical ones, like the songs in Joanne. Kesha also tamed down her image like Gaga, but kept her individualistic personality.[162] In his Vanity Fair article, Josh Duboff wrote that singer Justin Timberlake's countryfied musical endeavors with his Man of the Woods album era recalled Joanne. He also noted that "other pop stars—Miley Cyrus and Kesha among them—have recently pivoted from a more pop-focused sound to something rootsier."[163] Hugh McIntyre from Forbes similarly found singer Harry Styles' debut single, "Sign of the Times" (2017), incorporating glam rock in its composition.[159]

Singer Noah Cyrus acknowledged the impact of the album in an interview with V, saying that she has "been stuck on Joanne. Gaga has just killed it and this year, with that album".[164] As Brittany Spanos from Rolling Stone observed, Joanne served as Cyrus' "muse" while songwriting for her debut album NC-17, incorporating the country-themed musicality from Gaga's endeavor.[165] Gary Trust an article for Billboard, titled "Is Lady Gaga Bringing Back 'The Vocalist Era'?", noticed how with the release of "Million Reasons" Gaga had brought her vocal talents to the forefront. He interviewed radio programmers who theorized that releasing the song was part of a bigger musical picture and believed that the musical scene was "entering a new era of traditional ballads and big vocals".[166]
