Economy 47,056 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 (edited) I havent listened to paper gansta in like 10 years but now decided to relisten (I like it more now than before) Anyway im getting very specific images and vibes when i listen to it, very much like a piano in dark and red atmospheres, old dirty city like New York alley ways at night and dark bar asthetics as well. To me it feels very much like these vibes Edited September 30 by Economy 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Axel 558 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Paper Gangsta has always been one of my faves on The Fame and I definitely agree with that assessment I want her to make more music like it so bad ʟɪᴠɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴇ ɢᴏʟᴅ ᴀɴᴅ ᴛʜᴇ ꜱɪʟᴠᴇʀ ᴅʀᴇᴀᴍ ϟ†▽✰𝒿 ~ 2 7 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

weed 70,956 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 (edited) I wanted to find a picture of a mysterious silhouette in a beret at a jazzy club smoking a cigarette with dim light above them but I couldn't find that so I think this kind of fits for me if he was in Brookyln Edited September 30 by weed 8 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juanne 270 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 For me, the Telephone MV already ingrained the image in my mind, sunny, prison, and Gaga playing the song with cigarettes glasses. I hate it But I love the song Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTV 12,597 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Paper Gangsta def gives off dark alley ambient music vibe. LG7 better come through with PG 2.0 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hELXIG 41,607 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 Now that we know about everything she went through at Def Jam I struggle to find any imagery outside a tortured young artist losing everything, being abused, and having to start again I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate it But I love the song bit unrelated but I used to wonder if Gaga purposely went in the opposite direction for music video visuals, like Bad Romance sounds so dark, so I thought it would have all been at night and horror themed but she made her brightest music video in a white room. Alejandro felt like end of summer dusk to me out by the ocean but she went for a cold industrial warehouse look, Telephone/BTW/EOG etc same sort of thing 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaky Oliver 21,258 Posted September 30 Share Posted September 30 It’s incredible how Paper Gangsta still stands today as an unique piece in her discography, none of her songs sound like it, it was already so different from TF tracks then which made it such a highlight. 2 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant believe i ignored it for over a decade . But honestly listening to it again I love it now so much I dont think I loved it this much in my early fan years. It was always just ok to me.
