I hope Mother Monster breaks out of her shell in the depths of hell for one night and summons the remnants of her monsters to go kamikaze on Billboard after this.
How in hell Billboard gave Gaga a mixed review. Also the fact that almost all the praise comes from the magazines that don't count for MC shows how unlucky she is
Unlike that “Duets” series, where Bennett was the star surrounded by guests, “Cheek to Cheek” is a vehicle for both its featured artists, in duets and on their own. Gaga is especially devastating on “Lush Life,” digging in with a gusto that’s rarely apparent on her own recordings.
This is the album for people who want to like Gaga, if only she would cut the crap and just sing. And that’s what she does here, rather beautifully and with a force that’s less Broadway showstopper and more liberated torch singer. She and Bennett bring out the best in each other.
