Holy crap, Lady gaga's new album is fucking terrible

[nudemacusers]

She sells herself as the ambassador for the youth, but is a mentally deranged drug addict.

lmao, they are going in

[Himu]

I've been listening to this album, and think it's pretty much right in line with where she was going with The Fame Monster. There's nothing surprising, and it is along the same trajectory; not sure what people wanted. I like it quite a bit.

I can't speak for everybody, but I was hoping she'd iterate on the direction she went with Born This Way. For a moment it seemed like she was moving past the airy pop music, but Artpop does a U-turn right back into it.

apparently she lied about her album sales recently and the fact that she's playing much smaller venues for her Artpop tour means this baby is on the decline

Ah, so she did: http://www.examiner.com/article/lady-gaga-lies-about-album-sales-as-career-continues-to-crash

Same thing is apparently happening to Kanye West (poor selling album, shit ticket sales)

Do not trust Examiner when it comes to Gaga. There are writers there who have it out for her and will report outright lies. For example, the people being laid off rumor.

oh, they have some beef with her? not as fun.

I mean, they basically call her a drugged up floozy, as if that were bad thing.

[Phoenix Dark]

She has sold 600k worldwide? That's not as bad as I thought, and she could still go plat.

Gaga attacks Madonna and Xtina wtf? I thought only stans did that shit.

Lady Gaga is such a good person...

Lady GaGa’s Born This Way Foundation Only Gave $5,000 Of Its $2 Million To Actual Charity

The foundation, which lists Gaga’s lovely mom, Cynthia Germanotta, as president, had a lot of expenses in 2012 that had nothing to do with helping anyone. They spent $300,000 on “Strategic Consulting (web, digital),” $62,836 on “Stage Productions (Harvard, LA, UN),” $50,000 on “Social Media,” and another almost $50,000 on “Event Coordination.”
What?
Born this Way also spent: $808,661 on “other”; $406,552 on “Legal”; $150,000 on “Philanthropic Consulting”; $60,000 on “research”; 58,768 on “Publicity fees”; $78,000 on “travel”. They spent $72,000 on salaries– presumably for running the Born this Way bus, although that episode had its own expense line.
Under ‘grants to organizations or individuals”: $5000. Five thousand dollars.

I feel like nearly half of a budget shouldn't be able to be classified as other

I feel like Gaga's work, at least visually, has favored a strong connection to the cheaply provocative, lurid, and pornographic. Oddly, I'm more interested in the vomit artist's regular work in its normal context, rather than this girl-on-girl emetophilia. It could be a remarkably deep statement about what drives an artist, but in the on-stage supportive performance with Gaga, it speaks an entirely different message.

doesn't that describe 90% of pop stars? Even Beyonce is doing it now.

Gaga simply tries to hide it with faux art.

She's not gonna beat GG Allin.

Kinda hard to top performing nude, defecating in front of the audience, smearing yourself with said poo, flinging it into the audience, and also physically and sexually assaulting your audience.
