I find it strange that so many of you are abandoning what made Gaga, Gaga. She is apparently done with bombastic videos with narratives, fashion, controversy, etc. But isn't that why we fell in love with Gaga? Because she isn't just releasing basic vids?
Idk, some of you guys are so quick to accept, "Well, this is what Gaga is doing now! Get over it! That Gaga is over!" Can't you see how this is upsetting for some Gaga fans that fell in love with her for the reasons you're saying to get over?
You guys are being such Gaga apologists. She could release a statement saying "No video, monsters. This song transcends visuals.. I want this to last forever with no pre-conceived image surrounding it. Just the magic that me, Mark, Bloodpop, and Joshua have put into the universe  Create your own video in your mind, make this song mean something to you. #ARTPOP" and you guys would say its genius and she's gone through an artistic rebirth, is in a happier place, etc.
It's okay to criticize Gaga. Let people criticize her; this thread isn't just a vapid space for pure Gaga praise. Opinions are good. |
You can fall inlove with someone
and let them grow up, mature and accept their change for what it is (personal growth). I can see how her completely abandoning or rather growing out of what made her 'gaga' is upsetting to some, but... that's their problem? IDGI
What are you trying to say.
It's simple. Gaga is a grown ass woman, 30 yo woman. It's been almost a decade since she debuted... Y'all have changed in those 10 or so years (I hope cause otherwise
) yet you don't want to face the fact that she has also.
You're describing people who like her current work as apologists and dismissing the fact that some of us maybe grew tired of the 'old gaga'. The whole over the top antics and what not, maybe became tiring to some. It certainly seems that's the case for her. Why are you generalizing. Some people have simply learned to accept the fact that she's not here to please us.
She's someone who has a product to sell, one which you can choose to support or not. There's no 'buts' 'ifs' or 'i'ms'. It is what it is
We are on the same page. I am finding this era so far to be refreshing. She has the talent, she does not need the crazy outfits. She has always had rock influences. We've all known it. 
At the end of the day we're all her fans (ostensibly 
). It is perfectly normal to be disappointed/know what you want, but I don't think wishing ill upon her and her career because she didn't Do What U Want is a good look at all. I'm not speaking specifically of you FYI, but those who I am speaking about know who they are.
