Paul wasn't necessarily all bad. Applause, DWUW, Bloody Mary and Electric Chapel all have immaculate production (if not for Applause's chorus), but in general I think Nadir is better at creating a cogent song, both lyrically and thematically.
I don't get why y'all want her to drop DJWS completely.
If you listen to the PRODUCTION (which is his job btw) on artpop it's all very good. I mean Applause, DWUW, Sexxx Dreams, MANiCURE.. it's not his fault Gaga wanted to tweak some songs and 'ruin' the live versions.
