Klou 2,414 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 It was very obviously Gaga, and I'm not just saying that because I'm a fan. Rihanna and Britney were doing dance music, but it wasn't until Gaga came onto the scene that it was starting to be normal to have dance tracks on the radio.

Introvert 0 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 This is rediculous... there were many influences and you cant give credit to 1 single artist for starting it Madonna with 4 minutes 4 minutes was urban and was produced by timbaland. it sounded exactly like everything else that was already popular at the time, in fact it was 2 years late on the trend.

Unicorn De Milo 4 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 .No one did. It was a cooperative effort. :clap: I just think of daft punk whenever I think of early 2000s :giveup: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klou 2,414 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Britney Spears hands down. She made it a must-have in pop music. Blackout is 100% what made dance-pop/electro music the booming genre of the decade. The Black Eyed Peas and Gaga followed after. But obviously Gaga is going to win this poll because this is a Gaga fan site and everyone here thinks she started every single trend. I would agree with you if that album was some major commercial success Labels want money and they won't be pushing that sort of sound if they didn't think it would be successful.

Economy 49,936 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 4 minutes was urban and was produced by timbaland. it sounded exactly like everything else that was already popular at the time, in fact it was 2 years late on the trend. ok but its not that different. its dancy, it has electronic sounds etc not every song on radio right now is a perfect classification of dance-pop you know... thats just a generalization we use to describe mainstream because its kind of the middle of all the genres we hear Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans are so biased... IF it was gaga that released it first but then Britney enforced it later, Gaga fans would still claim it was Gaga @Klou I thingk Gaga was lucky... Radio was obviously going that direction already, so ppl were starting to like that type of music... then u have a new artist whos all about that and ppl will like her music... Gaga would NEVER had had the success she did without those past artists that were beginning to pave dance-music for radio before she came along!

Ursula Buffay 73 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 This is probably not clear for some people!! When you post a poll about something that includes Lady Gaga on Gaga Daily, there's only ONE result : - If it's positive, Gaga wins - If it's negative, Gaga loses. Alright? :reductive: Examples : - Who do you think is the fattest Lady Gaga or Lindsay Lohan? - Lindsay Lohan - Who will die first Lady Gaga or Rihanna? - Rihanna - Who invented internet Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber? - Lady Gaga Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dance music from now is already a little different from dance music back in 2009 My point is that if Urban wasnt that different from the dance music were talking about, and on top of that there were songs from Britney and the Black Eyed peas coming out and radio music was already evolving to the dance point... Gaga didnt have to be anything revolutionairy to have success on it Gaga was more revulutionairy in terms of her message and performance style... In terms of her music though, not half as much as ppll give her credit for Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Aphrodite 241 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 blackout was not influential! holy **** it was urban. it was totally urban. the popular singles were urban influenced. heaven on earth and radar (album tracks) were the most synthed out on that record and honestly kylie and madonna already covered that field 2-3 years before her. so why britney? Blackout was Urban meets Dance completely. Before that album, the music scene was mostly Urban influenced. After that album, the industry was predominantly dance. It was the ultimate bridge between the 2 genres. It captured the sound of the past and pioneered the sound of the future. It was extremely influential.

Forrest Gump 1 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 didn't you read my posts in your thread? i'll give you a timeline for those that don't know dance music was incredibly popular in the 80's in the 90's madonna was the first pop star to dabble in a more electronic sound with ray of light and cher was the first to dabble in autotune with believe then daft punk started blowing up with their house sound in the early 2000's with discovery. this became a very popular sound in europe. madonna continued having more electro beats in her songs with music and kylie minogue had an electro pop hit with can't get you outta my head in 2002 britney's spears album in 2003 in the zone had a mix of r&b and electropop songs. toxic would become one of her biggest hits. in the second half of the 2000's madonna retuned back to her dance roots with her album confessions on a dance floor with hung up being a global smash in 05. in 2006 timbaland made a comeback and and had a dance/urban sound with nelly furtado's loose and justin timberlake's futures-x/lovesounds in 2007 britney spears released her "comeback" album blackout with a more darker approach in electro pop music and dabbled in dubstep. dubstep would later become more popular by rihanna on her album raterd r and skrillex. kanye west also sampled daft punk on his song stronger, who were already popular at this time but would blow up even more by it;s popularity. more rappers began to sample electronic beats after this. neyo's song closer who was already making r&b released a song closer that would had a electro sound to it. this song would pioneer the popularity of dance beats in r&b music. in 2008 m.i.a.'s (who was already making electronic music) song paper planes became a huge hit thanks to pineapple express. madonna and janet continued making more electro-pop songs. rihanna had songs like sos going #1 in 2006, then don't stop the music and disturbia became huge hits in 2007/2008. she would continue doing more dance songs throughout the 2010's britney spears in 2008 worked with an underground producer the outsyders who produced her dance-pop song womanizer. dr. luke produced a souple songs shattered glass which would be a similar sound kesha and katy perry would have by him. david guetta's s-xy b---h was a huge hit on the dance charts and dj's would become more popular after him. but it was his song with the black eyed peas boom boom pow and i gotta feeling that exploded his sound to the mainstream lady gaga's song just dance became a sleeper hit in 2008 but would go #1 in 2009 along with her other fame singles. poker face, bad romance, and telephone along with her other singles would go top ten on the billboard charts.

In terms of her music though, not half as much as ppll give her credit for yeah but im saying that has nothing to do with 4 minutes or blackout. blackout was not one of the precursors to whats popular now and neither was 4 minutes. they were both reflections of the time at which they were released. im not dissing blackout, i think its britneys best record and her most progressive for her. but not for music in general.

Alright? :reductive: i know. the biaseness is so annoying Im a Gaga fan and shes my fav artist... But ive never been the type to be biased... I can admit if another artist is better than Gaga on something, or when Gaga does something poorly Some ppl obviously can not To some ppl Gaga is not only the best, but she started every trend and the fan bases we argue with, its always them that are the bad guys This base is no better than Madonna fans tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
