It's the oldest trick in the book: Past-prime pop singer attempts to boost his or her relevance in the face of dwindling sales and hastily changing trends by commissioning the help of a hotter, more bankable artist.
mess at that one member being able to predict everything the reviews would talk about
It's almost uncanny. Its going to be like a checklist at this point.

her decision to drop everything to make a straightforward album of jazz standards from the Great American Songbook with Tony Bennett is even more baffling than the time she covered herself with vomit at South by Southwest.

And we didn't like the performance. CTC 0/5"
"... ARTPOP was a flop. CTC 2/5" "Cheek To Cheek doesn't sound like The Fame Monster. CTC 2/10"
If im being totally honest here, I agree with all these comments on her delivery. I dont personally think she utilized her voice in the most effective way for this album and I don't think what we've heard so far is all that great. It pains me to say it considering even though I wasn't expecting to love this album I really did figure there'd be some usable material for me here but I mean whatever. And I think its such an obnoxious cliche to be that gaga fan that feels the need to say what shes done is disappointing but I do find this album to be lackluster even for what it is. Another cliche gaga related statement to make: im still looking forward to her next album.
