If the next album is a success, it won't matter to most who produced it. And if it isn't, it'll be the fault of whoever produced it regardless.
Also, there's a pattern of fans being unhappy with whoever she picks. People didn't want more RedOne on BTW because of his samey sound. People didn't want more Fernando on AP because of his muddy mixing. People don't want more DJWS on #5 because his sounds are recycled (read: didn't create hits).
I'm definitely more confident in the project with DJWS on board than, say, Madeon or Zedd. I just don't think he should be lead producer again - change it up.

Thing is, he can be the lead producer and she can still work with other people. It doesn't mean he has to produce everything, just that he'll oversee the sound.

And I think we all know DJWS isn't going anywhere, but it's very unlikely he'll be the lead producer on the next album. He's a talented co-producer, but he and Gaga both need someone more talented and visionary to take their work to the next level. Rick Rubin would be perfect

Oh, okay, I thought you said he was on the album.

I don't think Garibay did much, though. He was going to be the musical director but then opted out.
I'm not totally put off by the idea of her working with someone new just like I don't care if DJWS is on the next album. I do think however that Gaga and DJWS can make magic if they're not forced to dumb anything down with the next project.
Whatever is next I think is going to be the most experimental she's ever been.

Y'all do too much on DJWS. I think he has the same problem as Gaga, his raw ideas are great but he needs someone to help him refine them (see: Swine, Sixxxteen kbps Dreams)

The dude has been producing for well over a decade. You guys have to stop with this stuff about DJWS. He knows what he is doing better than any of you.

I want a totally new assemblage. It's time for Gaga to reinvent herself.

She tried that with ARTPOP and you guys weren't happy.
Like anythingtaboo said, people just aren't happy no matter what she does.
