With Witness everyone hated it and told her to go back to her old sound and now that she has everyone wants her to experiment. sis can't win It’s... not that deep She’s been doing a bit whatever lately... Smile is by far her least cohesive release. The singles have nothing to do with each other. They’re mostly good on their own, but that doesn’t make for a great album... I love Katy, I’ve actually enjoyed Witness contrarily to most people here. But it’s not hard to see why she’s not on top with what she releases these days... You can’t blame the GP for not eating up Smile, Bon Appétit, Daisies, etc. the way they ate up California Girls and Dark Horse... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been known that the main reviewer of Slant is a Madonna stan, and he's biased towards Gaga's albums. You must be reaching thinking we're making excuses, lol He/him/his Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, have you seen Bon Appétit’s YouTube views? The GP ate it up after the fact 😂 like wut... everyone slept on Katy when she needed us most & really did begin a new chapter & experimented with a different sound on Witness. I wish she would’ve built upon what she explored on Witness with her new album & continued to innovate like Gaga has done but she’s gone back to pop basics & though she hasn’t found a hit yet I firmly believe she will with at least one song off Smile. At least I’m praying she does. We need that 10th #1 hit!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 9 minutes ago, Lucas said: What's so experimental about Witness? It's a basic pop record with some woke lyrics there and there First off, she changed her entire persona, dropped the commercial candy cookie cutter pop act. Change #2 - on the album, the production is completely different & strictly influenced by 80’s/90’s synth pop/house music (which she only played with once before on Walking On Air). #3 - her writing habits, the way she constructed each song was different. Her melodies took on more depth (vs the usual one note chorus as seen on Teenage Dream, California Gurls, E.T., This Is How We Do). The form in which she wrote her lyrics were different. You could say it’s because she stopped working with DrL*ke (& you’d be correct) BUT she clearly set out to make a change & succeeded. Was it a success? In my opinion yes because she accomplished that growth whether or not people think it was for the better. Also, on Witness we heard new vocal technique, MUCH BETTET live vocal techniques while performing (mostly happened during PRISM). I could go into more detail by analyzing each track but I digress...

Well yeah, that’s what I’m saying lol I remember almost every Gaga fan I was talking with at the time wanted a country album but when it finally arrived people hated it. People still hate it, I constantly see memes where Joanne is the album being thrown in the grave/trash by the other albums etc. that’s my whole point though lol so many said “yas Gaga give us country/jazz” & then they hated both eras.

I was about to ask I get that if you listen to only the singles you won't find that much of a correlation between them but she's already said the album as a whole is supposed to tell a story. You can't judge it just by looking at a couple of songs imo Favorite McDonald's Snack Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
