I get the ARTPOP hate because it's sort of justified (it's not her best work) but people don't give Born This Way enough of a chance. It's a really good record (and her best) if you really listen to it.

Btw is her best record. After hearing it later I grew to love it more. I didn't realize how relatable it was during its era. It's not shallow. I do wish there were stronger productions, and I wish she excluded those weak bonus tracks, but it is a solid forward thinking album.
ARTPOP is a mess because she tried to keep up with the times but fell way behind. Decent songs, of course, but it is a step backwards for her.
