Or get fucked. In many ways, the album reinvented electronic-pop music. Kelly feature that Gaga would later remove from streaming services, not to mention its scrapped Terry Richardson—directed video , this album is the one that day-one fans appreciated, danced to, and exulted in both then and, almost more crucially, now.
Illusion, masks, bareness, posing: all are exercised as ideas, without Gaga really settling on a preference. ARTPOP has been resurrected, but it never actually died, though it did rebel against all the preset industry standards for mainstream music at the time. Recently, after a fan created a Change. Art that was ahead of its time without trying to be.
I taste liberation. I get to feel the full spectrum of emotions again: sad, joyful, energized, horny. With the album back in the limelight, fans are remembering — or maybe just realizing — its influence and the original discourse it opened. But for others, this was the moment her career went AWOL; veering a little too deeply into the absurd.
It would be fair to say this contentious lyrical left-field alienated the public alongside a contingent of her once loyal fans. On ARTPOP , chaos was condensed into 14 erratic pop tracks that, despite being formed from the elements of mainstream chart music, threatened to derail her stratospheric ascent.
The line between commercial and creative success she had flawlessly toed on The Fame , The Fame Monster and Born This Way felt jeopardised by this cacophonous meat-malleted pop album that was both unpredictable and relentless, traipsing across trap , trance and EDM. It's now tagged on at the end of a wild tracklist of songs that never settle on a cohesive sound.

She cheaply mentions Dorothy and ruby shoes. With piano, acoustic guitar and a sing-along-able chorus, this could be a hit. It's ridiculous but better. Her voice still isn't good.
