Stopped reading at Venus being 10/10 tbh :awkney:

Oh, really. :usrs:  My only complaint could be that I liked the G.A.Y. live vocals of the chorus more.  :giggle:

It's cute you gave 8.5+ for the entire album :flutter:

What can I say, it truly is her best so far. And it's yet to arrive in HQ.  :sweat:

Sure, absolutely, the beat is DOPE...and fashion-like beat

I just finished this "acid trip" by listening from track 1 to 15 (I excluded Dope because I wanted it to be special. I only plan to listen to it when it's released 4/11) and here's my thoughts. Do take note that I am not a professional reviewer, I'm just giving my honest opinions on each of the songs.

 

AURA (6/10) - It's sad to say, because I preferred the demo vocals over the album version vocals. However, I ain't gonna go b****in' about how bad it is. Despite the vocals have its flaws, I really like how she sings some of the lines. Not much to talk about though, since we've heard this way back in August. 

 

VENUS (8/10) - I really really loved this song when the first snippet was released. I loved how the verses give such disco vibes. It really brings back The Fame era teas. The overall song was really good. I love the build up to the chorus. One main issue I have with this song is how messy it is when transitioning (if you may) from the first verse to the pre chorus. But as a fully Gaga produced track, I think it's very impressive. 

 

G.U.Y (8/10) - This song gives me a lot of mixed feelings. The intro was really good but when it came to the chorus, I was slightly disappointed because I thought "I wanna be that guy" would be the pre-chorus and then the "true chorus" would be this big club banger. However that did not happen. But I guess it's a great song, single worthy.

 

SEXXX DREAMS (9/10) - When I first heard this performed at SwineFest, I wasn't a huge fan of this song. But this song is a grower, and the album version gives a lot more reasons why I should love this song. I love the extra touches she added to the songs. Single worthy.

 

JEWELS N' DRUGS (5/10) - Not a personal favorite of mine. But I guess it'll grow on me as time passes. I just wished she had less features on this song because the rappers are all over the place, it's messy.

MANiCURE (9/10) - I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG when it was performed at SwineFest. Everything about this song is perfect! I love how she sort of play with the lyrics a little. However, I don't get why the beginning of the song is cut off. I wished she had kept the way the song started at SwineFest. I really love the new lyrics added.

DO WHAT U WANT (7/10) - I have very mixed feelings about this song as well. I thought the collab with R. Kelly was genius, but there's just something about this song that gives me really mixed feelings. The bridge, however, is really good. Gaga is really an extremely amazing vocalist.

 

ARTPOP (7/10) - When this was premiered at SwineFest, I immediately thought Gaga was joking. Because I expected ARTPOP to be this club banger record but it turned out to be tribal-ish kind of song. Like Sexxx Dreams, this wasn't a favorite of mine until I gave it a couple more listens. I really love the prechorus.

 

SWINE (9/10) - I loved this song when it premiered at SwineFest. What's not to love about this song, anyway? I wished she had kept the piano intro though. That was the best part. I also wished she had worked more on the vocals. For some reason, she sounds really sloppy in some of the songs on ARTPOP.

 

DONATELLA (10/10) - This is the song that represents Gaga, herself, in my opinion. The production on this track is amazing. I love the build up leading to the chorus DOH NUH TELLA!,  I thought it was a neat touch. Totally single worthy/material.

 

FASHION! (5/10) - This one really surprised me because of how toned down it is. With will.i.am's production you always expect this club banger type of record, but Fashion! was something different. So far, it's not my favorite. I don't see myself repeating it any time soon until I spend enough time with the album.

 

MARY JANE HOLLAND (8/10) - I love the Bloody Mary teas the song is giving me. It's a great song, the verses are really good. I've always loved dark gaga vocals. What I don't like about this song is how messy it gets when it gets to the "MARY........JANE..........HOLLAND...." part. It sounds overproduced a little and I'm not a fan of that.

 

GYPSY (10/10) - THIS SONG IS LIKE A HYBRID OF TEOG, MTN AND HAIR ALL IN ONE. IT'S SO SO GOOD, IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY DESPITE THE MELANCHOLY LYRICS. Everything about this song is perfect. I really want Gaga to make this a single, and have a MTN-ish video to go along with it.

 

APPLAUSE (9/10) - This song is great. Still catchy as hell after all the new songs came out. 

 

Overall, I give ARTPOP the album a 8.5/10.

Compared to Gaga's other work ARTPOP > TFM > TF > BTW. 

Single materials: Applause, DWUW, GUY, DONATELLA, GYPSY
