Infernal Paradise

As more and more artists kick off and are in between their music eras, I feel more glad that Gar decided to pull all the stops for Mayhem. The back to back feedery, whew. We might never have another huge era like it going forward (although never say never with her!) but it really cemented her status as a legendary pop artist who will always serve qualiTEA.

"AI tool" and it's literally public polling OGHs never beating the illiterate allegations.

A little belated but yes

If it works for someone, good for them. It requires excellent curatorial skills to gather a team of writers that can hand you surefire, airplay-ready hits. But sometimes artists pens carry a strong signature that is unmistakable and cannot be easily replicated by a writing camp, that's just the simple truth and that needs to be appreciated as well. The new wave of singer-songwriters however are bland and boring for the most part since they severely lack in the storytelling and creativity department.

@SweetOreosOfHeaven wrong reaction hun

It doesn't, because almost every high profile actor gets nominated for or wins a Razzie throughout their career. Her industry accolades, respect from peers, and critical support are more than enough to offset that, and she literally turned it in her favour by taking it and JFAD's failure in good stride which only endeared her further to the GP.

And an Oscar, 16x Grammy, Emmy, BAFTA, 2x Golden Globe winner etc. What's your point? Besides, I have been told that collabs don't count towards her career achievements so yes Gaga, no solo Razzie.

Definitely Gaga. ✅ Massive global appeal with classic hits, albums, and longevity ✅ Multi-talented, multi-generational, multi-industry icon and chameleonic figure ✅ Keeps her personal life largely private and carries herself with grace and humility supporting younger generation of artists ✅ Has used multiple big televised moments to flip skeptics (Superbowl, Sound of Music at the Oscars etc.) There will always be a loud online minority and certain fanbases that will pretend otherwise but that number will always be negligible and thus easily dismissible compared to the actual GP and industry people that love her. Thankfully, she will always hold a positive opinion in the real world. ATRL can seethe. https://yougov.com/en-us/ratings/pop-artists

Even if it comes by next year it's still a win. At least all the "she will be gone till 2030" theories can be put to rest now.

LG8 IS COMING!!!!!!!!

Ideally 2-3 years but between these two, definitely the latter. There's a much higher chance of a carefully curated, all killer no filler album, and better songs mean better replay value so I can enjoy it over a longer period of time which makes the wait slightly more bearable when baseline quality is there.

Metacritic summary After numerous variants of her 2025 album, Taylor Swift returns with a deluxe edition that adds four brand new songs.
