ARTPOP appreciation THREAD

You know... I know a lot of you love and really appreciate ARTPOP... and since my fav albums are The Fame, BTW and of course Chromatica (my Nr 1) I have never really paid that much attention to ARTPOP.... and when it came out I mostly listened to Applause, ARTPOP and Gypsy I believe... I admit that I was one of the people who didn't like ARTPOP as much as her other albums...but now, so many years later I am really starting to really love it... it's so ****ing dancy and colorful!

 

So why do u think ARTPOP is still so underrated or why do u think it was less succesfull than the other albums?

Some of the beats are very techno-like (Swine) and "Manicure" has rock-vibes I think...  Gypsy is kinda very cute pop and then there is Dope... Like there are so many styles on this album musically, but also in the visuals right?

i think it would be the messines

it took me quite a few listens to "get" venus but it's now one of gaga's best songs imo

i could understand people feeling the same feeling for jewels n drugs, aura, and mjh

also the less successful part was because of all the controversy surrounding her collab with r kelly as well as the media tearing her to shreds trying to snowball off of her weight gain

hard to even fathom which parts you should believe

Literally such an incredible album. It might have been the messiest era (ppl that hate on Chromatica obvi can't remember ARTPOP either), but probably my favorite. That's when I became a full blown stan! 

ARTPOP forever! :saira:

Honestly to me, ARTPOP (despite some of the unfortunate things that occured during this era) is just magical, from the music, music videos, fashion, performances, etc. it was all so iconic and still is to this day :vegas:

My fave album, alongside BTW 💜

It's just a genius merge of conventional art and mainstream pop culture, all kinds of different and polar opposite sounds and concepts. It truly is "Dance. Sex. Art. Pop. Tech." in one! And I love the message(s): "A hybrid can withstand these things, my heart can beat with bricks and strings, my ARTPOP could mean anything", "We could, we could belong together", "Free my mind ARTPOP, you make my heart stop", "**** you pop music, this is ARTPOP, free yourselves!", "I'm not a wandering slave, I am a woman of choice". It'd take forever if I started listing the genius of every individual song and the topics they deal with, but they all do it in exactly the needed way. It was an artistic and philosophical protest against the ridiculous societal norms and I'm sad it didn't get the appreciation it deserved. I mean, which other mainstream celebrity had an exhibition at the Louvre? :ohwell::firega:

I don't think it is her best album however it is my personally favorite!

Aura, Sexxx Dreams, Jewels N Durgs, MANiCURE, Do What U Want,  and ARTPOP should have been the solo/demo versions. The songs are still bops however I think they would have been better has the demos.

I strongly believe it's the best pop album she's ever released. I think it was a bit ahead of its time – a lot of the songs sound more like 2020 than 2013.

Like, Aura, DWUW (feat. The Weeknd), Sex Dreams, GUY, Applause, Swine, Donatella, JnD, ARTPOP all sound more current and fresh than much of Chromatica, TF, and some of BTW. The music itself is some of the best material she's ever released, but it got bogged down with a nebulous, pretentious concept. I strongly believe the era would've been better received it she just hadn't called it ARTPOP. "The Aura", "Venus", honestly anything less preachy would've been better.
