These are the 15 tracks she used to justify being an exquisite meal and not a French fry?
She's talented enough to do better. An album that is perfect start to finish is too much to ask for, but I'd love to hear an album from Gaga that's forward thinking and challenging. I don't care where it charts, but I can't pretend that ARTPOP is an amazing cohesive piece of work. Individually the songs are listenable, but I don't see how this works as an album.
I do support Bobby though. Perhaps her next era will go smoothly without all this BTS **** going on!

Absolutely agree

And that's the main reason I'm starting to lose interest, I've had other faves drop albums that weren't as successful as their previous works but the quality was there so I stanned as hard as ever. This album doesn't offer anything to be passionate about, aside from DWUW which is a fantastic song. Applause is also really great, and I like a lot of the other songs some, but it's underwhelming, it's the only Gaga album I've grown less fond of the more I listen to it.
It kills me that monsters think GUY is flopping cause radio/the media are out to get her

, like the song is pretty good but it's not catchy at all, why would a non-Gaga fan bother with it, and that goes for pretty much every other song on the album. But I know she recorded this in a rough state and she was smoking a lot of weed and probably had no idea how vulnerable her spot in the pop world was... So I fully expect her to really try for the next one
