Cute for you that you don't like the album and have a host of complaints and unsolicited suggestions for what Gaga should do to next, but I swear it's the same 3 people tripping over themselves double-posting and spamming the thread with their worn-out complaints. I feel like I'm in one of the 20 other threads on this forum about how "whatever Gaga tried to do with ARTPOP failed!!!!1"
ARTPOP easily remains my favourite Gaga album to date. It's certainly not perfect (I don't use Donatella or J&D, and I know I'm in the minority for wishing Dope were still I Wanna Be With You), but I find it has less filler than The Fame, flows better and goes harder than TFM, and isn't as sonically exhausting as BTW.
It manages to play to Gaga's strengths with her quirky brand of songwriting while still finding space to try new things with her sound: Sexxx Dreams with its sinister Vanity 6 neon haze and explosive, glittering hook, MANiCURE with its girl-punk rock&stomp, DWYW with Gaga serving some pseudo R&B that drifts between both heavy and breezy synth and vocal passages, ARTPOP with its Yoko Ono-meets-Roisin Murphy hypnotic disco, and Fashion! with its Daft Punk-ian nu-Chic funk.
There's a lot of flavor and color on this album, and it's too bad that those who want to actually enjoy the album with other like-minded fans have to put up with people who want nothing more than to whine about Gaga up and down this thread.

So true. IWBWY lyrically, live version singing skills >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> dope studio version.
IWBWY is my top 5 if it became studio version, dope is my bottom 3.
