It's my favourite but rank-wise, Americano ruins it. The Fame's better than both TFM and BTW. I require being able to listen start to finish in my definition of greatness.

Honestly The Fame is the least consistent of her four albums to me. It has some ridiculously well done songs and then veers off into really derivative stuff. Weirdly I think ARTPOP is probably her most consistent even if overall it's more of a B- album than an A. TFM is an EP so it's consistent coz it needs to be. BTW sounds like the work of someone with a million ideas in her head so I appreciate the breadth though the middle third could have used some chopping. FOHL especially could have used it.

I'm still of the mindset that Gaga's single most brilliant moments musically were on the BTW album, though I appreciate TFM's reputation as inarguably great, coz it is. BTW is just riskier, dirtier. She could have played it safe and released something predictable to eliminate any risk of fallback, but instead she decided to make more challenging material that spoke to her. Adele would never.

Not Square-Enix serving an ANTi sized mess... the meltdowns are glorious!

And speaking of glorious things, I was listening that Erykah Baduh mixtape. I like it a lot so let me wash away the slime with it again.

Wait for LG4 and see some saying Artpop was the best album by Gaga and LG4 is garbage. I can feel it already.
Why wait? This kind of awfull opinions are posted here everyday...

I want Gaga to release new music so we can drag/stan that thing instead of being stuck in 2013...
could be nice if Rhat also decided to drop too...

I'm impressed to see my local home city artist Grace (Brisbane, Australia) sitting at #3 on the UK charts (after dominating in Australia a few months ago).

What does PopGAF think of her "You Don't Own Me" remake (feat. G-Eazy)?

( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DosIvd-FdhI )

I hated it at first but there's something dark and addictive about it.

Just finished watching Charli XCX The F Word And Me and it was an interesting to see their views on the matter but I feel there should had been mainstream artists also talking about it besides Marina, Ryn Weaver, Liz and most people who are not exactly too popular. I recommend it.

The fact that Coldplay's music is now worse than Maroon 5's has me contemplating suicide. How could my Kings betray me like this?

Taylor is not winning before the usual pressed come with their poison.

Nevertheless, all of The Lord's albums since Fearless have been nominated for Alberm of The Year. None of your faves have been bestowed with this much praise and acclaim in their lives. And they probably never will.

Bjork could get her first grammy at last. Hmm @ Justin also having Skrillex potentionally helping him get his first one too.

I knew Emotion was overrated to the high heavens but the fact that they nominated the forgettable Piece by Piece over it is funny to me.

Bjork better get her first Grammy this time, she should have gotten one if only for the gift that was Pagan Poetry, also Piece by Piece is excellent so I hope you all listened to it.

I hope Florence snatches
HBHBHB is just a stunning album
Nominated for pop and for rock, when will your one genre faves?

Kendrick and the Weeknd are gonna sweep, Taylor will probably have the pop categories on lock

Gaga managing to get a nomination in her off year, slay a bit

No nomination for Azealia either
which is an actual shame given that its a fantastic album

So much for the "Acclaim@!!". It can sit with Carly in the only-metacritic-relevant section.

Now now, the general public and the grammy committee have already done enough on poor carly without you hating too

I'm not hating on Carly. Just saying that's all Honeymoon & Emotion are going to be known for. Being Upper mid-70 meta score pop albums that were snubbed by the media & the majority of the public.

Did you really expected a nomination?

Lana has only scored a nomination for Paradise (of all things) in the Best Pop Vocal Album category. Young and Beautiful got nominated as well and of course the Summertime Sadness remix won (but Cedric Diggory got the award not Lana). The Grammy comitee isn't a fan of ha.

And HEW would want to be associated with an organization that awards artists like Rihanna and Macklemore for their music? I'll take that Upper mid-70 meta score instead tyvm.
