Think Monster/BTW with a modern, experimental twist that explores different genres in music. It's very "fan pleasing", though some parts its not what you think a pop dance song should be like. She has bended the rules as to speak. It's dark, raw, intense, threateningly inauspicious and quite chaotic. No offense since I don't know you or your credentials, but this is such a vague, unbelievable take. Disease and Abra are nothing like The Fame Monster. They're more so a blend of BTW and ARTPOP (as much as it pains me to say this lol), but far more polished and forward-thinking. Nothing about old school Gaga is as polished or put together as what we've been given so far so I think far too many people are relying on this description because they don't know how to properly parse what they're seeing and hearing. It's very "dark colors so it's The Fame Monster" when TFM wasn't all that dark when looking back on it.

It nearly went top 10 on pop and stayed in the #15 range for like 2.5 months this sounds more radio friendly to me than disease, would you all agree?

It's very "dark colors so it's The Fame Monster" when TFM wasn't all that dark when looking back on it. Tbf the Mayhem video is very Alejandro/Bad Romance and the production isn't as industrial as BTW. I don't really think it sounds like artpop production either. It feels like TFM because of the lyrics (especially the chorus) and the visuals but it is still different from all three of those albums production wise.

They're more so a blend of BTW and ARTPOP (as much as it pains me to say this lol), but far more polished and forward-thinking. Personally, I completely disagree. I believe both Abracadabra and Disease showcase Gaga at her best, incorporating elements that transcend any single album. That said, Abracadabra feels like a true successor to The Fame Monster. It carries echoes of those songs in its production horns, structure, soft vocals, infectious hooks, and polished—yet far from bland—production. Yes, it's so much more than that—it's an evolution. But while Born This Way leaned heavily into '80s influences, Abracadabra feels like a '90s fever dream, elevated and modernized to sound fresh in 2025. So I can see why someone might cite The Fame Monster as a reference.

February 4, 20251 yr Popular Post comment_27129514 I have so many things I want to say about this song but I'm so bad at putting into words what I'm thinking. What I love and have always loved about Gaga is how she is unafraid to just be stupid. Listening to this song, it is stupid in the best way possible. It is stupid in a way no other mainstream popstar would ever dare to be. The traditional song structure with a gibberish chorus, robotic post-chorus, and a bridge with operatic vocals over a house beat are all things only Lady Gaga would have the metaphorical balls to do. And then the video, where Gaga is spazzing out, looking silly, distorted, and crazy, is another example of something only she has the confidence to pull off. In a world where being "relateable" and "perfect" has reigned supreme for years (something even Gaga fell into) and where all of her contemporaries are obsessed with their image being portrayed as "nothing less than always put together", this makes me appreciate Gaga in a way I haven't in a very long time. This package has everything I've felt has been missing from Gaga for a long, long time, but I didn't realize it was missing until it was served to me again. I don't like talking about "old Gaga" because I think it downplays that Gaga has always been "Gaga", just in difference reincarnations, but I cannot deny that this version of "Gaga" is the most fun and interesting to witness. The Gaga that isn't afraid to go against the grain in a big way. And best of all, it feels current. It feels elevated in a way Lady Gaga in 2025 should feel. What helps differentiate this from her just "rehashing old sounds and images" is that she's clearly in control. This is a popstar with confidence, a popstar who understood the assignment they assigned themselves and aced the assignment because she did her homework. It's easy to rely on old motifs you know best, it's not easy to make it feel fresh and new, which this does. What this proves, which we all already knew, is that Gaga is and has always been the foundational magic to what makes her, her. Over the years, fans have cried to bring back Nicola, bring back RedOne, bring back Boomkack... but what this package shows is that it is GAGA who is the manufacturer of what makes all of this work. All she needed was a good team, a group of people whose minds work on the same level of hers (Richie Jackson's clearly did not). Gaga is not Gaga unless GAGA is operating at the highest level. She is now operating on the highest level. I do not think any of us are fully ready for this album. OK, thanks for reading.
