Nycboy 1,092 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Ok Little Managers, so I used to think that Gaga’s next album should be an Adele-type album with songs like ARUTW that could easily become massive classics. I still think that’s a good idea, but after listening to Jessie Ware’s What’s Your Pleasure? I think a similar vibe could be such a cool direction for Gaga. If you haven’t listened, I highly recommend it. Many publications ranked it in the top ten albums of 2020. It’s basically dance/disco music but much more toned-down, atmospheric, and mature. It’s not full of in-your-face pop bangers like Chromatica, there’s no over-singing (ahem, Enigma), there’s no over-drama (ahem, SFA). It’s clean, modern, effortless, and chic. Best of all, it’s mature. Jessie Ware is 36 and this sound suits her so well. She doesn’t sound like she’s trying to be the next it-girl popstar. I can imagine Gaga singing most of these songs with her whispering voice à la The Cure. It’s 2021, and I’d be fine if Gaga stops attempting to recreate the massive pop hits of her heyday. Album highlights: spotlight, what’s your pleasure, read my lips. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson123 38,288 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Everyone did Disco in 2020 (even Gaga) so doing that again after Chromatica doesn't seem like she'd change that much from it but that's just my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you listen to the album? It’s more like Robyn’s Honey than Kylie’s Disco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s more like Robyn’s Honey than Kylie’s Disco Yes I listened to it, it's one of my favorite albums of 2020. What I mean is that the Disco wave was a big influence on most albums from 2019-2020. Gaga is doing the jazz record next so by the time she gets to release LG7 the disco sound will have been overplayed by then. I mean I love disco but will it stay alive for 2-3 more years ? It'd be like ARTPOP getting released around the time people were almost done with EDM. BUT I do agree that Gaga needs to do more R&B inspired songs like The Cure, Do What U Want and Heal Me even though I'm just DYING to hear her go techno / industral like Scheiße, Government Hooker and Heavy Metal Lover but that's just me. She usually takes me by surprise with every album so I'm just going to keep an open mind about her next projects. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Fried Egg 8,831 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Whatever it is I hope it’s not country/ folk. It’s just my least favorite genre. ARUTW is one of her greatest masterpieces though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
