Madeon got to be one of the worst producers Gaga have ever worked with.
Gypsy and MJH deserves so much better than what production it got.

Tbh I wish Gypsy was a ballad but it has nothing to do with God Hugo's skills. It would work better.

I don't know why keeps choosing these EDM/Fruityloops twinks instead of working with experienced actual music producers

The Dope and Fashion! production/instrumental>> (which she both sabotaged with her vocals though..)

The MJH instrumental is heavenly tho

It's good but it don't mix well with Gaga's voice. It kinda feels more like an
fan mash-up than an actual song on the album.

She made it to the top and then made a statement; now she no longer has the drive to retain that position at the top or continue the sociopolitical advocacy as strongly. I really miss that ambition.

Just a reminder to everyone - there really isn't an issue if she decides not to be a pop star anymore. Not directing that at Retro, just throwing that out there as a possibility.

I'd love to see her do a rock album.

Yupp. Gaga really needs to go back to creating the song on the piano, and then working with her producers to create an instrumental. I don't think having her producers create an instrumental or just give her one they already made, and then having her write the lyrics and music over it, works well for her. It leaves the song with a cold, empty feeling.

If she wanted to go all-out and bow out with conviction, rather than doing it half-heartedly (like basically everything this era has been), then she can step down from pop-stardom. By all means. However, at this point, she seems lost - like she hasn't a clue what she wants to do or even where she wants to go.

Zedd did well but both could have done ​​it SO much better.
When listening to the songs it don't sound like they did their best.

There must be those who are not good enough or is it Gaga who has too much control.

Gaga has too much control; she's working with great producers.

I'm disappointed zedd used two recycled beats when they had two years to do this album

At least those beats slay though

Agreeing on that.

Like Donatella is heavenly but the chorus becomes too stressed. You can't hear or understand
half of what she is saying at the chorus.

Although Donatella is an 10 from me, it could have been done so much
better if she had started from scratch with Zedd.

DWUW is like the illegitimate lovechild of "Out of Control" and X's "Your Body".

I feel like if she had done it with Xtina all along (who, lbr, this song was made for), it would've been a bigger hit.

Even though I like the R. Kelly version better.

Agreed on both parts.

Is it too much to hope that we still get the vid someday?

I feel like Gaga have an vision and don't let her producers get their creativity come out.

Just listen at their work from their own album or singles.

She is LITERALLY just taking their production they have already done
and does the rest for herself.

I think there's a greater chance we'll get a new video for it than we do the original tbh lol

[that G.U.Y.]

Videos are so last decade anyway.

Now that I realize what the concept was, it would have probably ignited a media shitstorm anyway.

I don't really care for the Christina version. Judging by the performance of the remix on iTunes, I think it would have flopped hard if it done originally. The only logical option is Drake or Frank Ocean, to be honest. Certainly not Christina, Cher, Barbara, etc etc

[slobro]

Yeah R Kelly saved it. The lyrics Christina sang were not good at all, so literal and unrelatable

[that G.U.Y.]

DWUW should have never been a single. It should have stayed the Scheiße of ARTPOP
