I don't know how to describe it, but it just doesn't feel like an album cover to me  Gaga's previous pop covers felt very deliberate and polished in different ways (Chromatica's a prime example, followed by ARTPOP and Born This Way), whereas this image looks like it could've been one of her Instagram posts back in 2014. With that said, it might grow on me eventually.

I think this cover is extremely vulnerable to her and shows her weakness while still being fierce and mature at the same time. I personally like this cover more than Chromatica because it has more deepness to it and shows the artist that she is now.

I'm not sure how much a "vulnerable"/"mature" cover fits this album yet either. Aside from DWAS, none of what we've heard fits with that concept. The music is spooky and offputting, and it reminds me of songs like Bloody Mary and Monster. I would've expected her to lean in a more overtly horror-inspired direction ala TFM.

Now that the hypes died down a bit, can I complain?? I just kind of wish her team would put more effort into her album packaging. Like I got the limited edition brat vinyl that had phenomenal packaging. Same with Allie X’s GWNF deluxe. Like where are the box sets? The embossing, the wig clips??

One thing at a time, hennies. Not like Gaga never do boxsets before.

Should I buy the vinyl now or wait to see if she pulls a TSwift and releases multiple variants??

Do we think Gaga is releasing the next single for Friday? or Song + MV at the same time (Grammys sunday)?

Considering Disease rollout, Interscope might do a Friday song only release then MV Sunday.

Article said releasing song AND video at Grammys, so I think no single on Friday this time around

How do you embed tweets now since the way I usually do it doesn’t work anymore?

I just realized that the only explicit track on the album is the 6th, which is supposed to be Killah

I feel like the JOHN WAYNE mv set the stage for MAYHEM 

I always knew she'd return to that storyline (lowkey)

Take a screenshot and upload it to a photo sharing site. Let’s not give that Nazi Elon any form of revenue tbh

So what’s the point in obscuring the track list on the merch and cd’s but then showing the entire thing anyway in the trailer 

To ensure active rather than passive engagement. Bobby got that big brain

yas i saw the variety article, but i was thinking why they used the term "debut the third single" and did not use the term "release" even thought the word release is easier to use  

I kinda prefer a song & video dropping at the same time tho. Also, friday will be The Weeknd's album bomb so a sunday grammys drop would be nice.

I am most looking forward to Garden of Eden (girlfriend) THE SERVE IT WILL BE OMG
