Lady Gaga - Dawn of Chromatica

he/him
Pretty much. It’s easy to forget now with all her Kindness Punks-ing in the desert and ending bullying with makeup palettes, but Gaga used to be so petty and kind of a bully in her own right towards her peers for no real reason. It wasn’t as overt as going on national TV and calling someone out, but it was there, and usually always passive aggressive. And of course there were the rare and embarrassing cases where she’d fully lash out, like when she was dragging Katy for copying her green hair via her hairstylist’s Twitter account.
And also the mechanical horses tweet in a way to say that Katy was copying the Born This Way Ball.

When we wake up to a "It appears Lady Gaga has stopped following Bloodp*p" tweet <3

Just kidding dd ̶o̶r̶ ̶a̶m̶ ̶I̶?
 
I don't know about you guys, but I do want to know more about what happened with Boys Noize. It does seem like Bloodpop was pressed, and I'm curious if that even involved Gaga or not.
 
Some of these reviewers (and some of you in here) when they start talking about the main album along with ridiculously mythologising the remix album like her contact with the artists in question didn't begin and end with copying and pasting the Twitter handle cloud that Bobby sent her to tweet... are they just eating the glue at this point?
 
I re-read what I posted as I do tend to be hyperbolic with Gaga, but I don't see anything hyperbolic in the comment you replied to. Care to expand on what you mean?
What I mean is that the album is great and the contributors are all obviously engaging with the music they are doing, but I struggle to see Gaga as an artist who paved the way for them or the music they do....maybe I’m wrong

Maybe "paved the way" is a strong term but I agree that, at least in the wide scope of mainstream pop music, there was a before- and an after-Lady Gaga. What @ADFH probably meant is that had it not been for her doing everything she did from 2008 to 2013 in the public eye, some of these kids (the collaborators) would have had very different career paths.
 
Bringing up Grace Jones just reminds me that I need that passage framed. It was a beautiful, expert level read and she did not lie.

Say what you want, but I also think the passage affected Gaga in a positive way. She ended up showing more of herself as an artist than the “Hi-Fashionn” Caricature that made her famous.
