ALX 170 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I mentioned this in the LittleMonsters.com thread, but I thought I'd bring it here -- how many people have noticed the trajectory Gaga has taken since being all classy 'n **** during the Asian / Australian leg of the BTWB? From the couture, colorful, clean pop goddess we all hoped she could be, to landing in LA and promptly smoking weed in a shrub and having sleepovers with Lindsay Lohan? Then wearing fur and pissing tons of people off? And now Mary Jane Holland, who chills in Amsterdam and wears a Megadeth T-shirt? It's just funny to think that when people were speculating about the "Fall of the Blonde Icon," everyone assumed she would inhabit a classic Marilyn Monroe persona, instead of couching that idea in the present-day state of pop music and internet journalism. No wonder she's so heartbroken singing "Princess Die" now -- it's her life, right now. She's pushing away the reality she made for herself piece by piece. It's her choice. She's said repeatedly she's breaking all the rules. The reality was always fantasy because she sold herself short to make The Fame so she could be successful out of the gate and get to have more control. Who's to say she hasn't always wanted to do what she's doing now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavyMetalGAGA 65 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I wonder if the album will have dub step. Pretty sure the next big thing is top 40 pop hooks over bleachy dub step (but I mean ARTPOP is the next next big thing) :shy: . See 'Too Close' By Alex Clare NO DUBSTEP, all of it is basic & any opinions for it are invalid :nacho: this isn't fukcing starships. i don't like the dubstep in "too close" either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gagaloo911 12,959 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) AFter listening to that SPECTRUM song by Zedd that GaGa tweeted, I am SOOOO looking forward to GaGa's new music since Zedd is producing on it!! I LOVE it! :excited2: Edited August 22, 2012 by BornThisWay92 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbumblenut 48 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) It's her choice. She's said repeatedly she's breaking all the rules. The reality was always fantasy because she sold herself short to make The Fame so she could be successful out of the gate and get to have more control. Who's to say she hasn't always wanted to do what she's doing now? Interesting point. If I'm going to hold up my own argument, I'd say she's always told the world her life is an ongoing work of art. She's always on stage. So what's the performance now? What does it say? It seems to be reacting against her Born This Way persona, and distilling the fall of the superstar into a contemporary story arc. We'll see what it all means in the coming months. Maybe she wants everyone to let go of her as an object of worship -- like, "I'll be myself, as long as you be yourself, and we'll all get along together." At the BTWF launch, she said something like, "I can't tell you how to be strong; only you can figure it out." So maybe now she's showing people what she's really about, and saying, "Deal with it." But (re: Princess Die) it still hurts to let go of a huge portion of your life, which I'm sure gets heightened on stage because she's so verrry theater. ;) But if I were to go down that other road with you, I'd say it's a pretty place to be in, where you get to smoke pot and be creative and generally do whatever the F you want because people are listening. But if she's not saying something, it might not leave a legacy, which seems against Gaga's MO so far. I dunno. Even down to the locations these "alter egos" are appearing in, it seems very deliberate. Wheel see! :) Edited August 22, 2012 by drbumblenut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDreamer 55 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I read the tweet as "Cannibals" and I got freaking excited! Lmao I was thinking something off the wall and hard hitting like Governmnet Hooker. What a personal letdown! LMAO! :rip: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDreamer 55 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I would also like to bring up the fact that she is using the word gypsy alot like she did the word hooker before she released btw....Gypsy will probably more than likely be part of a song title I think.

tezbear91 744 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hope there won't be cannabis songs on ARTPOP, it has nothing to do with art first of all, and it would be censored on many countries that fight against that Anything can be art. Weed makes gaga creative when she makes art. :coffee: battle for your life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Kermit 58 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 NO DUBSTEP, all of it is basic & any opinions for it are invalid :nacho: this isn't fukcing starships. i don't like the dubstep in "too close" either Gurrrl no. Gaga would gain SO many fans if she starts doing dubstep. Not to mention bringing the super little monsters a new sound by her. Also, starships is not dubstep in ANY way :toofunny: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rollercoaster 2 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Bloody Mary features Dubstep beats, it's never going to be generic with Gaga. She should hire Beardyman to do the instrumental on a track. He is amazing live. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
