Considering this is a monumental album for her career, it is kinda weird to have a lot of her fans kinda undervalued it? I see a lit of digs and jokes about it here, and on social media. Callinf the songs in it as "chops", among other things.

So what is your reason(s)? Is it because you are newer fans who did get to experience the OG era? Or is there something else?

Talk your truth! :flower:

It has no "bad" songs/chops, but it is (rightfully) front-loaded with career-defining hits, so the rest of the album seems almost like an afterthought

I don't believe in the glorification of murder, I do believe in the empowerment of women

Honestly, I have many songs from this album on my account: Poker Face, Just Dance, LoveGame, Paparazzi, Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say), Beautiful, Dirty, Rich, Boys Boys Boys and Summerboy. It's not a perfect album, but I enjoy listening to it.

It very much feels like a debut album from a popstar trying to make it and using tactics I don't like to that effect.

- All the singles/potentials hits are at the beginning of the album

- There are a few album tracks that are on theme that really aren't great

- And then there are pre-Fame songs that were added there because she liked them I guess but they don't fit thematically or sonically, especially compared to most of the singles when she was working with RedOne etc

Overall it lacks a clear direction like she had in her following albums, and a lot of songs are not that good to be included there.

I feel like most people who dislike this album did not truly live through this amazing era first hand. I was lucky to be a full grown adult when she debuted and honestly as someone who lived through the GOD AWFUL 2000s pop music (yes most of it was actually awful I’m sorry) it was a breath of fresh air and spectacular.

It was a cute and fun album that came out when (almost) everything on the radio was ABSOLUTE ASS. lolol

Also: does anyone remember The Fame having a different tracklist that wasn't so front-loaded? I remember it changed at some point and I noticed all the singles were at the front of the album and it just didn't hit as hard.
