I don't hear Loose in Greedy at all but queen of taste

I heard this mashup the other day, don't think I've listened to Loose before but I did think Greedy sounded like Timbaland x Furtado

I can see the similarity in the instrumental with this post, but for me her vocals and the way she sings are so.. 2023/nothing close to Nelly Furtado. I guess that's where I didn't see the comparison. but thank you for sharing

She can't be serious? She was literally promoting Greedy on TikTok before it was even released. Greedy is the perfect example of "music made for TikTok" 

What’s the correlation? A song being promoted on TikTok doesn’t mean it was made for TikTok.

I mean I liked her album but let's not act like her music is not tiktok songs under 3 minutes

I get what she means but this isn't new, People were trying to create viral songs before tiktok was even a thing. So long as there's money to be made artists are going to get pushed to do things they might not want to in favor of commercial success.

She’s not wrong, and some of you are purposely misunderstanding her.

If she enunciated her words she would be unstoppable.

If she didn't sing like she's running out of air and choking she would be unstoppable

I don’t think the length is the main issue about music right now, its ok to have a 3min song. The thing is good and memorable productions are missing, it’s been a while since last time. Lack of good production makes songs disposable and forgettable. 
I really miss those times when I could listen to Bad Romance and just wanted to listen to it all day long and never get tired. This is the kind of music the industry needs.

I get that. many songs feel so "disposable" these days

I ageee with this statement overall

but who is she and who does she think she is

You guys are reading too much into it. Her current sound is inspired by the 2000’s pop/hip-hop era, it is far from music made for tiktok considering it was not around that time. Also Ryan Tedder executive produced her new album. Just cause it’s Pop music doesn’t mean it’s manufactured, you’d think Gaga fans of all people would have that sentiment. 

 

I am a Lady Gaga fan and I think Chromatica was manufactured for the social media age of pop music, with cashgrab Ariana/BLACKPINK collabs and a disingenuous minimalist pop sound on a chunk of it

You can say that she promotes her music on TikTok and her songs are short, but they aren’t like other TikTok songs where after the song is released the only good part is the 15 second snipped spammed for weeks. Greedy and exes are good start to finish

I personally like this, she reminds me with FameGa.  A lot of people back then also think she was arrogant for taking a bold stance on things, especially regarding music, and people were saying the same things that some users here said in this thread. Who is she? Who did she think she is?  
 

I look forward for her future, she seems to have exciting career ahead of her.

It's not a pop forum without grown gay men bashing a young girl who's 10-20 years younger than them. 

Honestly laughable. She's amazing, the album is amazing, and she's right about this.
