Maybe. But the difference between Katy Perry and Lady Gaga is that Katy Perry's bad, generic, filler tracks are listenable and, at the very least,
current. Lady Gaga's music always sounds dated, or extremely busy. Lady Gaga doesn't know how to edit when it comes to production, so it tends to sound like a ball of noisiness with some nonsensical lyrics over the top of it. That never makes good music, but Lady Gaga lacks the self-awareness to see that.
