I dont know first album and Beyonce was local to US....how do u even appreciate the impact ?   Quality --gammys ? articles? reviews? and impact = sales and reccurent sales ?!

 

 Quality -- won 3 grammys and has BR which has the best MV of the 2000 and the most MTV wins.....

Impact ---40mil SPS more than all those albums + the best recurrent streams of them all YT + Spotify

Legacy ---the album that brought back EDM in pop music ---so i say is on par ---idk what is Janets album legacy cause nobody talks about it nowdays but whatever 

 

Its better than all of them in legacy and impact :coffee:

I think it has a bigger impact and legacy than any of the albums listed. 

But I think all the albums listed above are better in terms of quality.

It's comparable to ANTI in terms of quality but nowhere close to TVR/ROL/ST

Absolutely and anybody who denies it needs a reality check. TFM is a masterclass on how to do electropop. The production choices, the europop influences are all masterfully done

you shouldn't have posted BEYONCÉ and ANTI as examples. they belong to the new, current era of the music. not to OLD, PAST, DATED, AGED era. so the Madonna and Janet Jackson maybe, but not the others.

 absolutely, without question. with only 8 songs at that :clap3:

At least put 1989 or 21 there if you are going to pick albums from current girls.

 

ST success is very is us centric, it doesn't have that sales. It recurrent streams are not goid. Impact of suprise release is undeniable but that's the only thing going for it.

 

Anti is kinda just their too, successful but not on that level.

a lot of those 'old, past, dated, aged' albums are what a lot, if not all, of the artists you listen to reference for inspiration.

If this is about quality then it is on the same level only as the ep not including the fame

the thread literally says "quality/impact/legacy" but y'all talk about streams :rip:

 

OT : no, maybe if it was an actual album without the obvious filler song known as Teeth

The album sold over 617,000 copies in the United States and 828,773 copies worldwide in its first three days of sales, becoming the fastest-selling album in the history of the iTunes Store up to that point.

Two of these albums were US-centered and not much of an event in the rest of the world. One was very successful but definitely not a classic either :rip: So yeah

The Fame Monster is way superior than BEYONCÉ and ANTI... pls

No, it depends on what artist we're talking about of course, but current big scene of pop music isn't mainly influenced by Lady Gaga. they are mainly influenced by legends such as Lana Del Rey, Fiona Apple, Kate Bush, Frank Ocean, Bowie, Kanye, etc. We have past the time of your faves. Time is fast, and it has been years. Lady Gaga isn't currently influencing anyone with “The Fame Monster”. Of course she had a huge impact in the past, and influenced many, but not now.

how was BEYONCE local to the US when it changed the whole music landscape? :biblio:

TFM did not bring back EDM, it just helped kicked the door in for it to be mainstream. it's called a trend. :toofunny2:

no one talk's about Janet's legacy but Gaga did in 2009 and look's up to her.:oh:
