Fabulous write-up. I think in a few months people will look back at the ridiculous witchhunt that ARTPOP/Gaga got in the media these past few months and find it silly.
The music is her best yet, the performances are strong (if a bit unfocused at times *ahem*Venus & Dope*ahem*) and the visuals are as wild as ever. The only thing that's really changed this time around are folk's opinions on the Gaga brand (and how the album sales reflect that) - but that alone shouldn't affect how the actual work is read.
