MrFameKills 11,173 Posted 3 hours ago The way i'm transported instantly to the glory days of not just Gaga but pop girls in general - the huge eras with actually good MVs, performing on every talk show etc. None of the tiktok shite nowadays! And its not redundant, she seems to actually be enjoying pop music this time around 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daphnedinkley 14,002 Posted 3 hours ago not that sales or whatever matter, but how do we think this will perform commercially? too maximalist for the GP maybe?

Charlottexseax 8,165 Posted 3 hours ago idk its not hitting for me. it just reads as insincere/disingenous the song is not bad but the fact that she opts in and out of "gaga" makes the whole thing look like a schtick. it doesn't feel like gaga it feels like someone cosplaying as her or at least cosplaying as her BTW days 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every time she tried to evolve as an artist, they requested her to go back to her old art. Even this album rollout, the way she talks about going back to pop and putting pieces of broken mirror reflects this. Notice everyone saying Gaga is back, implying that what she’s been doing for years is not Gaga. 2 Quote I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sick of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even this album rollout, the way she talks about going back to pop and putting pieces of broken mirror reflects this. I absolutely agree with you on this aspect. LMs are super toxic, not against other fanbases but against Gaga herself. I saw many so-called "fans" who complained bc she's pushing her 40 yo and she's going to build a family. They're saying she's no longer attractive or honest... I readed super mean things coming from Gaga's fans or ex-fans and I think this affected her a lot. Bc Gaga is an artist who has a certain ego cause she cares about doing the things well and she care abt being a serious artist (and ofc being perceveid as a serious artist). She tends to be humble and to accept the criticism to propose artistically new stuffs. But yeah, "Mayhem" is a response to criticism. The theme of the album is a retrospective about her life with fame. I do not perceive her approach as fake tho, she clearly worked on a way to unite her new artistic background to her old standards. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think most (if not all) fanbases are toxic unfortunately. Lana’s fanbase can definitely be toxic at times I guess it varies artist to artist, but her fanbase seems generally less toxic compared to others imo 1 Quote ♡︎ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pin up galore 19,191 Posted 1 hour ago just blared this all the way to and from the vape store driving real slow with all the windows down so the little children could hear and yeah... she's done it again the Eurodance vibes, the dark booming monstrous vocals and production during the drop instant gaga classic like holy shit I can picture myself dancing in my bathroom to this getting ready 10 years from now being like "DAMN this shit still slaps" LOVEEEE feel the beat under your feet, the floors oN fiREEEEEEEEE the bridge being incredible as well like what's not to love here ALSO love the low quality intro to the song its like the hotel snippet being played b4 the song starts in its full glory 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marcodelrey 1,992 Posted 1 hour ago I love this new era so much. As a Gaga stan since I was 13, I feel like she's really enjoying this. I'm one of those who are not afraid to say that Joanne and Artpop >>>>>>> BTW and The Fame. Naybe it's just because I felt those 2 albums the most during high school times, but I'm so mad about how 'fans' nowadays complains how she's not 'mainstream' anymore. I prefer it that way, let's leave Poker Face and Bad Romance to who doesn't want any artist evolution. Can't wait for Mayhem 🫶🏻 0 Quote Did You Know That The B***h Emptied My Bank Account?
