3. Gaga stopped working with Rob late into the production of The Fame. I'm pretty sure she stopped working with him after she got the Interscope deal. Most of his songs that made the album were Def Jam masters.

1.) She took a song to the damn Academy Awards with that mess and she's now the face of celebrity sexual assault victims. She's willingly benefitting from the PR boost, much like Kesha.
2.) Fair point.
3.) She still worked with him and still allowed his cuts, regardless of who mastered it/produced it, make the album. If you're staunchly dragging Kesha for allowing her rapists productions to make the album, the same can be said about Gaga's rapists productions making an album that sold over 10 Million copies worldwide. Rob profited immensely from Gaga after the rape. If she wanted to really not work with her rapist, she would have removed him from the album, but she
knew Rob could give her Paparazzi and Beautiful, Dirty, Rich, with Paparazzi going on to be one of her big hits. He's also the co-exec-producer of the Fame, meaning he still collects royalties off of her biggest catalogue album, much like Luke with Animal. He introduced her to Vincent Herbert and is basically responsible for her getting signed to IS.
