I like P!nk, love most of her singles, and think she is a phenomenal performer. But her musicality is highly overrated (other than her voice, which is quite good). Musically she takes very few risks, and thematically her songs/albums are often times the same. It's easy to turn out good songs when they are all similar-sounding and about roughly the same thing. That doesn't make me like her music less, but Gaga is clearly the better artist.

A normal post finally.
P!nk's now at her 6th studio album, Gaga is at 3rd, so it's quite nonsense to compare their musicality. At first it seems Gaga is taking more "risks" musically but let's just look at P!nk's only first 3 albums (where Gaga's at right now): an R'n'B record, a rock-pop record and a garage punk-rock album. They are nothing alike. And I can even say that when it comes to taking risks, CTMH/M!SS/TT was all about it. Then P!nk found her style and she's sticking to it - you can like it or not (I'm the latter).
So when it comes to taking new directions, P!nk was definitely more adventurous. Let's just wait how Gaga's sound will evolve in ARTPOP and the next 2 albums.
