Daylight Jokers 14,958 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Dope was one of the most important songs in the album, and also one of the most personal songs she's ever written in her entire discography. It's way better written and it had more depth than IWBWY. We already have applause, putting IWBWY in the album would be redundant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The minimal instrumental is in contrast with the high energy pumping tracks of the album, expecially if you consider the placement in the album: after MJH (song about the fun of drugs) and Gypsy (which somehow gives hope after the depressing Dope) . This, this all the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaelergrey 5,386 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Dope is one of Lady Gagas best ballads. The eccentric part of singing like a high/drunk person, no autotune, raw emotions etc. is one of a kind. Always Remember That You Are Special, You Are Beautiful and You Are Loved Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubblegum Bitch 18,934 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I agree with you, I also think this song doesn't fit ARTPOP, especially between Mary Jane Holland and Gypsy. But I understand how important this song, lyrically, is important for Lady Gaga. That is why it is on this album. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen 30,420 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 You obviously don't understand one of the main themes of ARTPOP: "My pain exploding in electronic music". It's not a happy album, it's Gaga trying to dance and rage and rave through her pain. Dope is the moment where she comes down from the high and deals with the situation. It's stark and jarring on purpose. It does exactly what it's meant to do. and "lyrically sub-par" I know I ****ed up again Because I lost my only friend God forgive my sins Don't leave me, I Oh I will hate myself until I die My heart would break without you Might not awake without you Been hurting low, from living high for so long It's dark, incredibly raw and personal. Probably her saddest song imo, eclipsing Speechless and Princess Die. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay , i agree its a personal song for gaga hence its importance on ARTPOP But just because lyrics are dark doesn't mean they are masterful I just feel like IWBWY is way better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Zelda 726 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I really don't get why so many fans hate Dope lmao. It's such a raw and sad song and as much as I liked I Wanna Be With You, Dope is like ten times better lyrically? I can see people being putt off by how she sings it though (I personally love it tbh). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
