February 3, 20251 yr comment_27125299 That Pitchfork review is an example of the problem that has existed between critics and Gaga since... literally day one. A lot of them just don't get her and I really don't think it's fair to call any of the new material a "rehash." Lady Gaga "going back" to being Lady Gaga is not necessarily regressive because Lady Gaga herself popularized the things she's known for and the things that made her an enigmatic icon. Besides that, even though there are definitely elements of her earlier work incorporated into the new music, it's still fresh and elevated and reflective of her evolution as an artist.

Because I remember how disappointed I was at the disease mv because I was expecting Alejandro's sister after the director and Paris posted Alejandro-related pics. Abra though, is 100% Alejandro's sister.

February 3, 20251 yr comment_27125302 I can't believe she delivered such a masterpiece, like Disease was really good, but Abracadabra (both song and MV) is literally a career highlight ???

How does that boring b&w picsart selfie represent such EXPLOSIVE and complex songs like abracadabra and disease? This.

February 3, 20251 yr comment_27125322 Why is anyone taking bitchfork seriously? I've hated them since back when they used to crap on my favorite indie bands. They can give praise to a watered down gaga-lite chappell roan but gaga returning to her own sound is a problem?

February 3, 20251 yr comment_27125362 31 minutes ago, IBeMe said: Tbh I respect the review. They acknowledge it's a return to form quality wise while also not being groundbreaking. It's a mix of Gaga of the past mixed with the "dated" industrial EDM and electronics sounds of the mid 2010s yet she still makes it good enough to enjoy in 2025. The last sentence is also the most poignant. Gaga is constantly compared not to other pop stars anymore but mostly to her own past work. Even when disgruntled fans complain it's usually because she didn't give them what they liked from her past self. It's a unique hot take tbh (at least for a music publication…we on the other hand have had these discussions for ages now lol) Her catalogue is too diverse so everyone has a different expectation on what the ideal version of Gaga is. It will always be difficult to reach a conclusive consensus between publications. Also whenever a review relates Gaga to her contemporaries it feels kinda... random? It makes much more sense when she is compared to Bowie, Prince, Madonna, Grace Jones, Elton, etc. Legend thingz, I guess.
