The original ARTPOP was far more experimental, it must have been. Because she described the album as EDM, complextro, dance, rave on LM in 2012. Then all of a sudden, after the hip injury, it was a pop album. I think the injury made her lose direction and she was too weak mentally from the marijuana use that she let decisions be made for her.
No point dwelling on this now though. The album is still far superior to most pop girls their album and it was the album that got me through a lot of personal stuff. Born This Way moreso but ARTPOP helped a little. It was also promoted by my first Gaga tour, the artRAVE which is being livestreamed tomorrow night which is a good segway...
I really think (want to believe) she'll do at least something special for the livestream
