A vision where I perform my thoughts for the world. A world where I mattered in a different way, a world where I was valued for different things. And in this world I was kind, and that kindness spread through people, through sound. This was the birth of Chromatica. ­—LADY GAGA (2020) After a three-year gap, Lady Gaga’s sixth studio album Chromatica arrived in May 2020. Billed as her long-awaited return to the dancefloor, the record comprises 13 house-flavoured bops (including international chart-topper ‘Rain on Me’) bookended by gorgeous orchestral interludes, all produced by dance heavyweights ranging from BloodPop & Tchami to Axwell & Skrillex. Gaga described Chromatica as “dancing through [the] pain”, & that’s evident in the lyrics, which mask deep, meltdown-level sadness under a veneer of dancefloor euphoria. The album filters love, belonging, resilience, & depression through the prism of dance music, all the while articulating Gaga’s increasingly fraught & complex relationship with her fame, her Little Monsters, & the very nature of who ‘Lady Gaga’ is in 2020. Although the Chromatica era was curtailed by the COVID-19 pandemic, it wrapped up in style with a brutalist-inspired stadium tour & accompanying streaming special. Chromatica has always been a polarising entry in Gaga’s catalogue & so, five years on, let’s take Gagadaily’s temperature on the record with an anniversary rate! We’re rating all of Chromatica (bar the interludes, which are beautiful but I know you heathens will sink them), & its sole bonus track: I’ll close the vote on Friday 30 May & host the ceremony the next day. All you have to do is score each song out of 10, & then choose one song to upgrade to 11 – & feel free to leave your comments about your 11/10! Happy listening, & I can’t wait for your votes. Let’s celebrate Chromatica in style! MIGHT BE INTERESTED:
