"Angel" is Madonna's best forgotten single.

It is kinda rich to have a Formation avi and say Madonna has no legacy in the same breath, but ok
|
Musicians and artists have utilized music to comment on social and political philosophies for centuries
Madonna was definitely not the first given that the pop genre itself originated back in the 50s/60s

Charli > Marinara sauce.
Froot is so overrated on this site; it's disgusting.

Turning Hive on Monsters won't work but nice idea. Desperate times, desperate measures.

A lot of the GP already forgot who Kesha is  Let alone Charli. That movie was a summer 2014 thing.

Lol, this is so much ********. Beyoncé's fans are mostly women/the gp anyway.
And every SMART gay stans for both of them because - brace yourself - you can enjoy the music of two women at the same time if one of them isn't Katy Perry. IKNOWRIGHT??

Lady Gaga was made the new "patron saint of gays" by gays long before BTW, though, so save it. "Lady Gay Gay" was an internet meme in 2008. Her first televised performance was on an exclusively gay network (the only people who were giving her a chance). You have no argument.

And Madonna's first performances were in gay clubs. What does that have to do with anything? Lady Gaga was endorsed by gay celebrities and media first. Then, the awful gay bullying and suicide stories started rolling in, and Gaga felt like she had to do something. Honorable. Yes. Good intentions. I don't doubt it. But to say she didn't make anything about her is total BS. She couldn't even make the bullying about the victims. She had to insert her story there. Maybe she fooled some people into thinking a rich, Italian, party girl, that was a total music-head, gogo dancer, coke user, NYU student, and theater kid was a total outcast in Upper and Lower East Side Manhattan but she does not fool me. Those qualities make her a social butterfly in that circle, not a misfit.

Well, true, Purpose doesn't really have any redeeming songs. So average and boring. While X is inconsistent, it has some great songs like I'm A Mess, Don't, Afire Love... Lots of filler, too, though. I would rate it about the same as Sounds Good Feels Good, but the 5SOS album probably has more tracks that I like. 
|
Which SGFGod tracks did you leave? The album has many good to great songs. Even more than the first one. I can see them growing well through the years

Just because Kesha isn't talked about doesn't mean that people don't know who she is.

My statement is 100% true. The same gays freaking out over braids and the N-word are the same ones who knew the BR choreography by heart. They also knew half the Applause choreo but they never got to learn the second half because Gaga became of no use to them.
And I haven't enjoyed Katy musically for years. I just stick to her for old times/TD era sake and ofc the Katy base which is like the superior SYG

Kesha was big enough to have a somewhat noticeable return to music.
She's a hit maker.

I wonder who will be the next Lady Gaga (the movement of the next generation of pop)?

Meh, fair enough. Sucker is better for me by a considerable margin, but I wouldn't consider either of them excellent.

Well right now, all of them because I'm too busy discovering Weezer's wonderful discography (thank God for Spotify premium). But if I went back and picked my faves, they would be Money, She's Kinda Hot, Permanent Vacation, Jet Black Heart, Catch Fire, Castaway, Fly Away... Skip the rest. While I do like Jet Black Heart, it seems a tad overrated.

Electra Heart is blah outside the singles. Froot and TFJ though

As if the gay rights movement of 2008-2011 was all about some news stories of suicides. It was a window in time where gays were visible in a positive way (things have since changed imo). Like the 1990-1993 era where club kids, HIV awareness etc. was happening it was not just one facet. So, who cares if Gaga spoke up about her own story there. We all know she wasn't facing homophobia but just general bullying. She wasn't trying to own their experiences but to relate to a similar experience she had. It's called empathy. Poor Madead.
