And all of the lower ratings are from "less respectable" sources. ARTPOP wasn't a critical smash but people generally liked the album.

Matangi 3,050 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 honestly I hate ARTPOP, I still find it as corny today as it was when she first released it. The lyrics weren't particularly strong, she had this aesthetic that was supposed to be deeply conceptual, but none of the content actually dug into the meaning of art or of pop culture as much as the "reverse-Warholian expedition" claimed to. I think it aged badly and was Gaga's biggest creative rut. That being said who gives a **** if it's called a flop or not. Like what you like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumzy3000 6,467 Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 8 hours ago, AJRocketMan said: I agree with everything! Yes! ARTPOP truly was an incredible artistic achievement. Her Robert Wilson collaborations were her best visual work in my opinion. She truly believed in the album and she put so much effort into making the album come alive, both onstage and off-stage. There’s no way she would have done everything she did if she didn’t believe in the album or didn’t like it, especially because she gets bored easily. And her outfits were so creative, like the bubble machine dress! However, I must say this: EDM isn’t a genre. It’s an abbreviation for Electronic Dance Music, which as you all know is a musical style. When people say EDM was popular back then, what they really mean was that Big Room House and Progressive House were super popular back then. Anybody remember Clarity, Wake Me Up!, Sweet Nothing, I Need Your Love, the Summertime Sadness remix, and Don’t You Worry Child? All of those are either Big Room or Progressive House. Notice how they all lack a snare and are just kick drums. Gaga never did that music with the exception of Gypsy. For most of ARTPOP Gaga was doing Complextro (a subset of Electro-House), Industrial, and Synthwave. No one in Top 40 Pop was doing that music and very few people outside of that were doing it either. Whatever is hot at the moment, Gaga always creates her own interpretation of it, and it was always more aggressive and subversive than her peers. Thank you for explaining that bit about the genres in ARTPOP! Really cool to know and learn about it. I’ll probably Google some compelxtro, synthwave and industrial tunes now trolly troll troll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
