I meant her new management. The one everyone was praising when the GUY video came out thinking they could make it a hit for her. We haven't heard from them since since when?

I just hope she gets an idea of where she wants her career to go and sticks to it. This era has been a total mess due to her constantly changing her mind of what kind of artist she wants to be.

But the imperial phase isn't a universally applicable concept. It doesn't feel right-- to me at least-- applying it to album-led styles like indie rock, where the cycles of LP releases and year-end polls are longer and the single-to-single, video-to-video intensity of the imperial phase is missing. Many pop acts never get big enough to have one, others miss their opportunity. Part of the fun in the concept lies in spotting them. Who had one in the 00s? Missy Elliott ("Get Ur Freak On" to "Work It"), Outkast probably, Eminem obviously, Girls Aloud in England. Timberlake? Timbaland? Kanye West-- and when was it?


Now when they get to explaining stanning like it is novel, listen up.

The album cover is probably the best thing about the ARTPOP era. its incredible, and if it was attached to a successful album, it would have become one of the most iconic album covers of all time. It's a shame it was wasted.

!

Attaching herself to such credible/undeniable artistes at the same time she loses the ability to bother. Coincidence?

You mean her NY friends and assistants of her previous management?

The album cover represents the era perfectly: a dodgy cluster**** of several different ideas and images thrown in together with a cheap tacky looking font

The guy that made it was all that mattered. Sound like an old story?

The cover is great. The material could have been better. Honestly the era itself had potential. Applause video premier, VMAs, KIA commercial, DWUW beats commercial, SNL, and other promo spots.

The real issue is the material. Gaga's team is working with 2011 material in 2013/2014 and are expected to make it to somewhere. Miracle workers they weren't

Sorry but you're wrong! It represents the one time she's successfully married art and pop. The sculpture and the koons ball being the art, the bold vibrant typography being the pop. The collage in the background again reinforces their integration.

If she could have translated those ideas successfully into songs and videos. Because she is right - the industry is dying, people are becoming lazy and theirs no #CREATIVEREBELLION anymore. Nothing in pop music is really that exciting anymore.
