Some fans aren't too pleased with her.

Personally, I don't really mind Lady Gaga's costumes most of the time. But I do think there needs to be a balance, and I'd say midway through The Fame Monster era she started losing that balance. Call if performance art if you want, but Lady Gaga shouldn't just be about the costumes she's wearing. It takes away from her talent and artistry and makes her a gimmick. People eventually get tired of gimmicks.

She doesn't have to go back to debut looks, but I think she needs to think about what made those styles so popular for her.

Shit like this:

Back then her style was fresh, no less unique, and chic. This was the style that made people want to imitate her. This was back when you could call Lady Gaga a fashionista without lying to yourself.

But when she started getting caught up in over-elaborate costumes that she needed to be helped in and out of (I'll never forgive her for that ridiculous fucking dress she wore while performing "So Happy I Could Die" during the Monster Ball) , and performing in what looked like "day three" panties with blood smeared all over her, it became too much, and actually distracted from who she is as an artist.

Nowadays the only people who want to imitate her are drag queens.

The Saturslays' new single Gentleman is on Spotify now, and is slaying your faves up and down the land.

So fresh, such a bop. 5th Hewmony will never. British girlbands remain unbothered.

[edit]WaiT though is that lyric

'Most dudes just hit it and quit it
Then they wonder why most girls just spit it'

RIP, Saturdays channeling Gods Aloud's cheekiness

Lil Mama has always been a very sexy girl. Though it's her eyes that are most attractive IMO.

botty claiming that neither Believe nor Somewhere Over The Rainbow are gay anthems though, I can't.

What is with straight people speaking as though they are the authority on matters homosexual? You would have thought they'd learned after DOMA's trashing.

How none of you besides Crumpet caught this is beyond me.

botty, you have some reading to do.

What the hell? I can see why the homosexual community would flock to it that way, but it's not as if the song doesn't mean different things to different people. Especially since the intent of the song isn't inherently about or for the struggles of the gay community. In fact, it's because the song is so well known and diversely used that I am still a bit confused as to why it's a gay anthem....but this isn't me saying it isn't a gay anthem.

botty claiming that neither Believe nor Somewhere Over The Rainbow are gay anthems though, I can't.

I didn't say SOTR wasn't a gay anthem, I said I didn't know it was. And I didn't associate Believe with being a gay anthem because my perspective on what makes a gay anthem is different from what others believe. Even looking at this thread it is clear that the term "gay anthem" seems flexible, and that's coming from the comments of your gay sisters.

And I think straight people speak like that cause we have so much privilege.

I Love It was short lived here

For reasons completely unknown to...anyone? it literally was only released in the UK this week. Straight in at #1.

[edit]http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2013/jun/30/vampire-weekend-glastonbury-2013-review

Vampire Weekendsus with a 5/5 Glasto writeup.

On to a stage decked out like your gran's front room – a flowery backdrop complete with mirror, patriotic war-time strings leaking from a radio somewhere – saunter Vampire Weekend to knock out one of the sets of the weekend as casually as taking tea.



One-time antsy Afropop brainiacs singing of obscure fonts and falling for the romantic-poet students on campus, their 2010 second album, Contra, added electronic meat to their spindly riffs. Their latest, Modern Vampires of the City, is up there with the albums of the year, seeing Ezra Koenig and Rostram Batmanglij evolve into the most intricate and intelligent songwriters of their time.

So it's no wonder Glastonbury barely realises it's watching history being made.

Iconic.

...they're not the same person? I thought some of you just didn't feel like spelling out "Iggy."

I used to think they were the same person for a while too. Doesn't help they're both nobodies either. I think Iggy is more a big name than the other one tho in the UK

Well, in Ms. Bank's defense people are checking for her. Two BET award nominations and headlining several popular venues without an actual album is pretty impressive. If she wasn't clowning on twitter and delaying shit I'd have a higher opinion of her. I think Azealia has an actual niche to grow into vs Iggy.

That was in 2011. And Iggy has songs that are charting now.

Songs that are not charting as high as 212.

And as Trigger pointed out, Azealia continues to headline in big venues all over Europe, Russia, Australia, New Zealand, etc.

She is not done. Goodbye with that idea.
