djBuffoon 12,030 Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 To me the artistry is more in the lyrics, which may seem like typical pop fare except they're used by Gaga as authentic self expression and there's bits in almost every song that go against a straightforward interpretation and introduce ambiguity, discomfort, or layers of subtext. Along with the frankly epic music, I completely agree with this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaMyBlood95 9,901 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 they gave PRISM B+,though omg....That is so wrong.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJH07 0 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 From EW, a B is good. You rarely EVER see anything more than an A- for their music reviews. Its my go-to magazine when I use the toilet.

DanceInTheFlames 154 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 this. People don't understand the meaning of ARTPOP. What do they expect? Her singing about the mona lisa or something? Who so you wanna paint this Spring? Who do you think is the new thing? Who do you wanna make an icon? MONA LISAAAAA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
itmightberyan 21 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I like how if any review is somewhat negative, this site automatically attacks them and calls them a nobody. This review is honestly very accurate, and I strongly agree with it. This is a good album, but it doesn't sound like "the future," and it doesn't show that much of a musical evolution for her. It very much has a been there done that vibe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come to Me 1 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Ok I see. To me the artistry is more in the lyrics, which may seem like typical pop fare except they're used by Gaga as authentic self expression and there's bits in almost every song that go against a straightforward interpretation and introduce ambiguity, discomfort, or layers of subtext. YES. DWUW is the perfect example. Lots of people outside the fanbase think it's a submissive statement of Gaga telling a man to use her as he pleases, when it's actually directed to the media as a way of saying ''through your articles and pictures of me you can all only have is the image, the icon, the representation of my body but you can't have my ideas or my heart because I keep them.

DanceInTheFlames 154 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I'm confused why people are saying the music isn't forward thinking enough or experimental enough. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think that was the point of the album at all. It was to take Pop music and meld it together with art culture through fashion, technology, visuals, performances, etc. . Not to make the music itself extremely artsy and experimental. That would be the opposite idea of ARTPOP. Just my thought not saying anyone is wrong.

llbcherry 591 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 And why does EW give a **** about art? :pukey: They're the epitome of pop culture. You'd think they'd be a little more appreciative. EW? Art? They no nothing of art. Opinion = invalid. I have heard 80% of the album and I love all of it!!!

HausOfMiklaus 1,803 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 That guy did not know what he was talking about. An obviously rushed and superficial review. Where is the justice when Bangerz gets an A- grade and ARTPOP a mere B? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
