LM: Gaga still can't pick songs/knows we (jokingly) 'want to kill her'

I've been thinking... I had a huge meltdown yesterday in the Gaga Christmas Gift thread....

I think the main reason that music today mostly SUCKS is because everything is rushed through by a "team" of "experts" that create new material with purpose and send it to the artist they represent for their vocal stamp and rush it to iTunes with little or no promo. After this process happens over a course of 7-8 years or so... everything begins to depreciate. I would blame the record labels but I can't.. I blame the rise of EDM...

I love(ed) EDM before it was cool.. I was listening to underground dubstep and producers like Tiesto and Oakenfold and DeadMau5 before it was mainstream.. and it was so different in the early 2000s ... but now Pop and EDM have like merged and its gotten so ****ty! You have producers like David Guetta and Calvin Harris who basically regurgitate their previous work into their new works and it all sounds the same.. The ease of production now is so simple that people can make top 40 radio groove in their bedroom on their laptop.. their is no true craft behind it now...

I think that Gaga has realized this .. and her producers are pushing for something more.. Born This Way was a testament to that.. trying to implement 80s stadium rock into a dance filled song... It worked for the most part but didn't quite over power the industrial sound that has been dominating-

ARTPOP isn't going to be your typical project and I think it's becoming more apparent that it will be ground breaking.. more so than Born This Way sonically. When ZEDD says 2050 I clearly think we can expect that... and that scares me a little bit for commercial appeals sake... it may take 10 years for ARTPOP to actually be recognized as something groundbreaking ( and I feel the same way with Born This Way on tracks like Highway Unicorn and Electric Chapel especially )..

So for us to get upset over a date is kind of like the guy in Titanic demanding more speed for headlines.. but they hit the iceberg as a result... moving too fast and not seeing where you are going and not being able to avoid something if you need to... ARTPOP doesn't need a deadline... If someone told Davinci he had 3 days to paint the Mona Lisa would it have been so beautiful.. idk just food for thought..

this post should serve as an enlightenment in this thread

Gosh I am so scared about ARTPOP! She has not even choosed the songs yet. I already feel that the next era will be even more rushed than BTW. Why does she release a risky album this time around? After BTW Gaga needs something safe, something to make her even bigger, something to bring the GP back!! This era HAS TO be safe. Can you imagine what will happen to her if ARTPOP underperforms like BTW? This is her chance to come back big! I am not saying that she has to do songs like Just Dance or Telephone. And I am ****ing serious. If the singles are commercial enough to become hits then OK . But I think that NOBODY will be here for another BTW. I am scared that Zedd and Madeon will ruin ARTPOP just like Garibay did with BTW. Gaga can not afford even one mistake next year! My hype is gone. I expect the worst!

i honestly live for posts like these

Gaga MUST innovate. 'Safe' music will do no such thing.

It's the worst, most gutless thing she could do after releasing Born This Way.

The fresh talent - Zedd & Madeon are the most likely to pull something slaytastic out of the bag.

Okay so she knows we want to kill her and she smokes weed in the bathtub. I love this woman.

If anyone thinks it's a good idea for her to release "whatever she wants" a la BTW, you're deluded.

What an artist wants to release is always "right" whether the music is good or not. Artists should never be restricted. And if AP ends up being anything like BTW that would be great since BTW was fantastic. If it's totally different as has been hinted that would also be great. If Gaga no longer releases what she wants then she is no longer in control and no longer her own creation. Most of us are fans because she's a true and honest musician. Anything else would be a step back.

tell them!!!

If she can't pick songs does this mean the titles we know aren't confirmed anymore?
