Ever since 'ARTPOP' it would seem that more and more acts are going for the whole capital letters albums and song titles:

Zayn - "PILLOWTALK"
Katy Perry - 'PRISM'
Future - 'EVOL'
Justin Timberlake - "CAN'T STOP THE FEELING!"
Hailee Steinfield - 'HAIZ'
Bryson Tyler - 'T R A P S O U L'
Angel Haze - "RESURRECTION"
BigBang - 'MADE'
Shamir - "BREATHE"
Troye Sivan - "YOUTH"
Meghan Trainor - "NO"
Enrique Iglesias - "DUELE EL CORAZÓN (feat. Wisin)" (Even crossing language barriers!)
Kings of Leon - 'WALLS'
Dorothy - 'ROCKISDEAD'
Halsey - 'BADLANDS'
Flo Rida - 'MY HOUSE'
Beyoncé - 'BEYONCÉ'
Robin Schulz - 'SUGAR'
Alicia Keys - 'HERE'

and more.

It would seem inconsequential and a deliberate choice but why since Gaga's released the undergroundly acclaimed album, 'ARTPOP', internationally known acts and important rock and indie acts go for the capital letters song or album title? Like as if they reached an agreement to do so or as if it's in fact, a trend.


So even if the album didn't reach 'The Fame Monster' heights commercially, did she start the international trend of naming your album/song with capital letters?

Yes, next she'll start the trend of album names with names that aren't yours

But capital letters were invented by me

Gaga invented music and songs/albums titles in general, so yes by default.

yes

MDNA came out a year earlier

Definitely. Gaga invented gays in 2008 and invented capital letter titles in 2013
All in the span of just FOUR years

Gaga invented pop music and popgirls, so yes.

'MDNA' is a wordplay of her name, the chemical and DNA which are already capitalized, she couldn't have named it 'Mdna' without it kind of losing the sense of the wordplay, au contraire, 'ARTPOP' in all caps was a deliberate choice.

Yes along with inventing music

Why yes i really think she did! Having album and song titles stylized IN ALL CAPS really forces me to look at it and feel like i want to dance and live happy and free in my musical expression! I am an artist

Yes, Gaga invented everything. Ahh my ****ing mother.

yeah but it didn't start the trend, which was the question in the OP, for which question the answer is Yes

MDNA tho

TRST was released in 2012 so I'm gonna say no.

He/she is right though. How was she supposed to spell it, Mdna? That would be simply incorrect.

ATRL won't even let me post in all caps. This proves Gaga is an innovative, edgy, risk-tasking queen

LMAO. Well, I might as well say yes. She's gotta have something.

yes

MDNA are separate letters

ARTPOP is a whole word lmao

Mdna would look like **** and wouldn't even be correct, written that way, and Artpop would.
