Nothing I’ve heard or seen from Addison gives me Gaga AT ALL. On the other hand, I do see the other 3 to some degree. 

 Really?

An 8.0 lol , havent listened to It. Im enjoying the ride with Addison but this Is Just like saying oh were betting in the possible cool underdog before the others

I mean, Addison is generally well regarded in music circles, and has been ever since “Diet Pepsi” was released. The album has received very decent reviews so far beyond just Pitchfork.

[PunkTheFunk 124,364]

Well deserved

[elsamars 74]

Deserved at least 8.5 tbh, are they joking?

I’m actually excited to see how this will debut on the charts. It’s getting so much praise and I personally know a couple of people who love it, but when I asked the younger people I work with they either didn’t know about the album at all or didn’t think she was a singer. They are a key demo when it comes to pop streams and sales.

Feels so nice being validated  I was glazing her and this album before ANY reviews  

And now pitchfork gives it 8! And 77 on Metacritic.

Oh, she's taking it  And y'all better get used to her cause she's not going anywhere.

Don't expect mainstream success, unless something viral happens.

 

Which for me is totally fine, she's not giving up and can't wait what she does next

And that’s neither praise nor shade. Gaga just doesn’t do that mellow, pristine, whisper pop- like ever. Even The Cure had grittiness and powerhouse energy. 

Agreed, except High Fashion is very Gaga/ARTPOP coded. 
- ARTPOP has the song Fashion

-There’s a lyric like “I know I’m drunk but…” (v similar to sexxx dreams)

-Theres a lyric like “when it comes to shoes I’ll be a slut” - that really sounds like 2013 Gaga lol

-Addison has spoken about loving ARTPOP

Fame is a Gun is very famega too IMO.

[ModernEcstasy 8,941]

This may seem like a bias/ controversial take, but I don’t think she deserves a score tied with mayhem. 
All of the songs blend into each other and sound the same. It’s a boring listen in my opinion. 
Same feeling I had listening to Post Malone’s country album.

It's the dua lipa hype again. It won't last.

The fact this got such a better score than Something Beautiful is confusing to me.

Wait- 

Is it on the album? I admit I haven’t listened to the whole thing yet 

edit: ok it was on a previous EP. So the good sis has some Gaga in her! Good for her. “Addison” does not, though.
