I haven’t had a chance to read it thoroughly yet, just skimmed through it. I’m really impressed that Mayhem/Gaga is finally being fully embraced by critics and recognized as a vital creative force. It’s such a refreshing change, especially considering all the snobbery she had to deal with in the first half of her career. If she follows up Mayhem with an even bolder, yet equally powerful album, I think the next few years will be a thrilling ride, as she’s finally shown people what she’s truly capable of.

It's crazy thinking about how hard she fought and worked to get even half the respect she deserves as an artist. Congrats to Gaga. MAYHEM is the moment. 

This is my Hannah Montana™️ lipgloss.

This is a very thorough, thoughtful article. I enjoy reading these longer, deeper pieces about her and not just fluff pieces. Thanks for sharing OP!

I'm glad The New Yorker liked it cause it looks like an album tailored for the NYC underground scene's taste

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

Why no rating tho? Is that a review or

 

 

They don't share a rate. It is more of a cultural piece/profile/trendsetting albums in larger context type of a piece. I have New Yorker sub. so maybe I could copy paste after work!

Between this and the NYMag review, there's a lot of strong voices giving this album its earned airtime. I'm all for it.

Overall the Press decided that this album Is a sort of back to the roots and like they said back to form.

Though honestly some said same thing about chromatica. The journalists Just love these big bold statements. 

However Gaga arrived at pivotal stage in her career where this feels like her First record. But Honestly, She won't have the pressure of the sophomore curse album for next, nor there's the hype After the "comeback era" that Was a star Is Born. 

The fact that stars of that period like Katy perry, Justin Bieber?... , kinda Nicki Minaj, kesha etc and those After her like dia lipa, lizzo, lorde etc

Are all having a harder time or in a sort of staler situation than Gaga Is no small deed. 

Its funny how they Remembered about that pubblication. Lol Gaga was so bold back in the day.
