Not the checking for Madonna's hits in a Katy Perry thread. 16 years into her career Madonna was in her Ray of Light era, Katheryn would be blessed for a quarter of the success of that era but thanks for playing. 5

What you can compare is number of years on a scene and number of albums. If something ... "One of the boys" and was released in 2008, 16 years ago. Madonna 16 years after her debut released "Ray Of Light" album and absolutely re-invented herself for like 5th time in her career. My point was, if you are doing only what is expected, you lose interest of people. Not talking about the fact that maybe there should be artistic growth if you are 25 and 40 years old. As I said, I like Katy, but it seems we already know what to expect.

I think comparing her last era (not including flop Sm*le bc the GP doesn't remember it) she had just cut off all her hair, was depressed after splitting with Orlando, very outspoken politically, rebelling against her sexuality and didn't want to be viewed as a sex symbol anymore. Comparing that to now where she is the most sexual we've ever seen, happily married with a family and the music we've been teased by fans at listening parties is an album full of sexy club bangers.. that is re-invention in my eyes.
DoublePistols Posted July 10 Posted July 10 (edited) I would be so mad being a Katy hater seeing her serving this era omg Edited July 10 by DoublePistols 10

She tried a different route with witness (sonically) and you see where that led her… so I don't think it's wrong of her for "playing save" (even though its completely different) and doing what she's good at. I think you need to revisit her previous eras cause you're clearly just hating. Also you saying "it seems we already know what to expect". I literally have no idea. Sonically and visualy it's also different from anything she's done. So I don't really know what the point is you're trying to make… I think it's best for you to sit this one out and wait for the album. Edited July 10 by lola4789 4
KatyPrismSpirit Posted July 10 Posted July 10 she better announce the album real soon but I doubt it's today

I always liked Katy but the opinion that she should move on from the camp and gimmicks is pretty popular also amongst her fan and general public too. With Witness she changed her hairstyle, yes, but videos and imagery was again colorful, camp and theatrical. So not "such" a new route. And again Im talking about WW video at the moment, lets keep that in mind ;!
thismoment Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Visually everything so far is 10/10. From the single cover to the MV and now this new picture, it's really shaping up to be one of her best projects at least in the visual department 3

FabForAThrowback Posted July 10 Posted July 10 When I saw the new picture I had an heart attack thinking was the album cover! Anyway the visuals are sooo good, her best ever I fear! We've been waiting for an era like this for so many years that now I wish it would last like forever
KatyPrismSpirit Posted July 10 Posted July 10 (edited) Monsters saying Katy is copying Chromatica in the Gaga base thread Edited July 10 by KatyPrismSpirit 8
KatyPrismSpirit Posted July 10 Posted July 10 Like are yall not aware that the 1/16th bass note is something WIDELY used in electro-pop and that Gaga didnt invent it with Stupid Love? The lack of music theory knowledge And the visuals don't even give off Chromatica teas. Be ffr 6
SG7 Posted July 10 Posted July 10 (edited) As I expected, it turns out that she and her team have a strategy after all. Making the era start much earlier than the release of the actual single, in order to adjust the public to the weakest part of the song and to the return to Luke. Saving the best for last and then smashing. It will be interesting to follow how the things will go from now on. Edited July 10 by SG7 1 1

There's a lot of chatter this time around and of course her haters are working over time with their scrambling and mental gymnastics and nitpicking over everything, but the best thing we can do is just enjoy what we're getting. And it's such a great time because we're finally getting the popstar Katy back after so long with top notch visuals and the bad ***** energy. We can't let a few sore losers ruin the vibe. Let them cry and wail and complain and burst their temples, what do we have to care lol. 7 9 1

Please, atrl and X are not all of her fanbase and certainly NOT the general public. You're embarrassing yourself… 1

Bencharmer Posted July 10 Posted July 10 I must admit her strategy is working on me. I found the first snippet not impressive at all.... By dint of playing it and staging it, it became an earworm to me.
