I'm here for the music, the haters can stay pressed and do nothing but worry about chart positions.

I'm pretty much happy with this album, being off this site has made me realize this more and more.

Yup. Thinking about jumping ship too (from the site). I really do like this album

What is there to even stay for at this point?

Monster 4 Life

she's so lack luster, like everything she releases has no impact other than some nonsentical gimmick she does before it, nothing feels authentic about this album, it's like she's focused more on the production that the lyrics and melody and threading of this whole album, I was here for the promo, I though she was giving us that clean pop bible and starting afresh, and when I heard "ARTPOP" was suppose to be a story, I was like... "which way do I read this book cz".. all that hype to be destroyed by Beyoncé releasing a flawless visual album with a story and a feeling you can relate to with a vibe we can all partner to in a way, maybe the ARTPOP Monstere will change my feelings, cz she really needs to bring something else out.. OF QUALITY, until then.

Never. I love her so much and I can't abandon an artist who is a real ass bitch !<3

This a whole damn lot

The album is great. Some songs are now shut compared to their demos tho (Aura, Swine). And WTF is Jewels N' Drugs.

And the promo is SHITE. All you monsters out there can say "stop worrying about sales and promo" but at the end of the day, Gaga will suffer from this. She'll be dropped by Interscope if she isn't successful and it'll be difficult for her to get her music out there. And no one will want to listen to lackluster songs like Aura, Swine and J&D. No one will like her if she keeps up this "I'm a pretentious Bjork wannabe" attitude whilst she's making pop music.

Aura is an example of what ARTPOP needed to sound like. The vocals on the album version sound really boring compared to demo, but it's still a great song. Then again, it's an Infected Mushroom song and SHE didn't even work on it except vocals.

She is so lackluster nowadays.

No.

This thread is still going?

Still no.

nope

not here for her

She won't be dropped by Interscope. Thats so overdramatic.

And shes not a pretentious Bjork wannabe either. Nothing she does is even remotely similar or trying to be beyond the fact that she wears clothes she considers to be art.

I agree that the promo is kind of wack but theres tracks on this record that are among her best however thats not being acknowledged because out of stubborn cynicism people have shoved her in a corner. On a sidenote, being an obvious Lana Del Rey fan I don't think you're in any place to criticize another artist for being pretentious and lackluster.

The amount of people who abandoned her : rip:

In 2011

Vin 99% of the time I respect your opinions but when it comes to Lady Gaga I have to say that you're completely un-objective. You have this innate near hatred for her and that completely clouds your ability to have a rational opinion regarding her or the status of her career.

Lady Gaga has been met with a certain amount of cynicism since The Fame, which as time went on and she made some non-choice career moves it grew and her opposers are very very loud and go out of their way to persuade others to think as they do going as low as spreading propaganda. The fluctuation of her popularity doesn't just derive from her choices, stubborn cynicism is one of the dominant variants and its more often than not illogical.

Theres a lot of criticisms of her that Ill agree with like her obvious dip in being able to market herself attractively and including in part her vulnerability (although she is often targeted spitefully therefore in one aspect her victimization is valid). But a good majority of these criticisms don't invalidate that her music for the most part is hardly deserving the opposition shes received.
