AlexanderMagno 10,746 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 You know how everyone mocks about Madonna's age and how she is as old as the age of dinosaurs? Well the whole song is about doing it ancient-city style, back to B.C., so yeah maybe she is shading Madonna comparing her with an ancient era Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDarkGa 311 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 given for the most part it was always madonna being shady and playing dirty it would be v out of character for 2020 Gaga to write a disstrack, especially when theyre on a stable footing now.

It feels like a message to people saying she heavily uses references from people she likes. That's what I thought too, while also incorporation some shade like Madonna has in the past.

We all know Babylon sounds like Vogue, but Gaga did way it better while shading her in the lyrics. If so, she's clever and badass and fuçking I lover her! What do you guys think? Vogue's intro is longer and better than Babylon. Let's not. Babylon would have a chance in competing if it had 3 more minutes. Judas is coming. Let the cultural baptism begin.

GerMonsterNotta 357 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 No - if anything complete opposite. To have a song about Gossip, and the rejection of such nonsense, and telling people to Babble On, as well as have the song have some Vogue-vibes - this is just damn smart. For those people who continue to gossip about a song about gossip ....... I literally think this is how Gaga gets some kinda private kick in the irony she introduces into her art ..... literally the Art of Fame where she is in control of what people think of her.......
