Fernando:
Gaga is a producer; I make records with her, and that’s why our records will always sound like Gaga records. She’s not part of the equation, she is the equation.
Kazemi: [laughs] “Heavy Metal Lover” is, without a doubt, the production highlight on the album. The rave essence of it, the manic vocal shreds, and all the smutty talk makes it an incredible pop track. If “Heavy Metal Lover” were to get on the radio, it would change the state of pop music and open a lot of doors for Top40 artists. Would you say that you and GaGa have created control with pop music, changing it for the better?
Fernando: Wow, you think so! I’m flattered!, but I really think a lot of the songs on this album could potentially have that power, from “Marry The Night” to “Bloody Mary” to “Americano.”
