    ARTPOP is the fourth studio album release of the singer Lady Gaga. it sounds like her debut. but in a better way. She proves that still has a great tallent to write a stronger verse. Her vocals are amazing and the songs sounds like very futurist with a alien touch. it's very fun and she combines diferents styles of music, rock in "MANiCURE", rap in "Jewels 'n Drugs" and others.

    ARTPOP is such an amazing album!
    Gaga made it again! There is no bad song on this album in contrast with her other ones...
    It is clear that Gaga has put a lot of work on it!

    Free my mind ARTPOP. You make my heart stop.

    Another amazing record by Lady Gaga, my favorite so far.
    "Do What You Want", "Manicure", "G.U.Y", "Fashion", "Donatella", "Artpop", are the bests songs.

    This album is pure dance perfection. The production, the lyrics, the imagery, and the melodies are all genius. This is Gaga's best album and I am in LOVE with it.

    The good sis of pop slaying once again. Lady Gaga proves once again that she is one of the biggest players in the world of pop music. Excellent work. Buy ARTPOP.

    ARTPOP is amazing. I think it's Gaga's best work yet. I love the songs and how it's like a trip from 1)Aura to 15)Applause! I also like the artwork of the cover,Jeff Koons did an amazing job and its what it says ART&POP. The tracks i love the most are "Sexxx Dreams" "ARTPOP" "G.U.Y" "Venus" "Donatella" "Do What You Want ft. R Kelly" "Fashion!" "Dope" & "Gypsy". I recomend you to buyARTPOP is amazing.

    Definitely not the best album of Gaga, but the mesmerizing tracks such as 'Venus', or the powerful emotional severance of 'Dope', you may find the album to overall be a nice addition if you're looking for a type of dance music that's somewhat out-of the box with it's mixture of 70's-like tunes and Gagas' powerful voice.

    Underappreciated work of a musician who is not afraid to evolve and push the boundaries of pop music.
    ARTPOP will be acclaimed in years to come, just you wait..

    This album is filled with many songs that make you feel something and also songs that just make you wanna dance. All of the songs flow so well in the order they've been put. Lyrically it's not as great as ''Born This Way'' but it still has some smart lines and jabs. This album is filled with ''club bangers'' even though she talks about a lot of her personal things.

The album standout track is Gypsy and it definitely should be the next single! Dope brings out the emotions in the listener and Do What U Want makes you feel confident. There are no fillers in this album and the weakest track is Jewels&Drugs, but it's not bad either.… Expand

    A consistently good album. No duds. The "worst" two songs are Donatella and Fashion, which I wouldn't even consider "bad." It's rare to have a cohesive pop album these days; they're usually filled with duds left and right or stacked horrendously with the highlight tracks first. Overall, as perfect as a pop album can get in today's industry.

    ARTPOP is the album of the year.
    The songs are fun and that's what the music industry needs at the moment.
    Play the record drink some alcohol party with your friends and that's it.

    ARTPOP is the best album of the millennium. It's the best album after Michael Jackson's Thriller. Every song is different and the entire album shows something new and fresh. Every song has a strong meaning too. This album is just a perfection.

    This album is her best one. And i think people just don't seem to realize that it's the best of 2013 from all pop industry. Prism and other albums are a zero. ladies and gentlemen ARTPOP begun.

    Its a good album. I like Donatella, ManiCure, Venus and Dope but Gypsy is the most outstanding of all songs in the album. This makes me wonder why Gaga chose applause as the comeback single. She could have chosen one of the above songs, any of them will perform far better than Applause. Great job miss Gaga!!! i really hope this album will perform well on billboard 200!

    Musically this is her album since The Fame Monster, the only truly negative aspect would come from people trying to define what ART or what ARTPOP means.

    After two years of waiting she's back. And she has come again with new and renovated energy, sounds, attitude, lyrics... everything. She has done her best album yet, to be honest. It is like a trip arround a lot of generes mixed with a base of good electronic dance music, not a basic one.

It is like a trip arround a lot of generes mixed with a base of good electronic dance music, not a basic one. The sound involves you and makes you feel like you are floating in space with songs like ARTPOP, Venus, Mary Jane Holland, Dope, Gypsy.. but it's also fun at its best. I'm a Lady Gaga fan and I love all of her albums, but this one is my favourite by far. There's no track that I avoid while listening to it, even thought some of them are growers, and we have Jewels and drugs, some short of experiment with R&B that maybe it's not the best song, and I could get bored of it... but it has a very interesting sound and rappers from the first line. So I recommend this album, it's the only pop singer who offers something different, innovative, and creative but being pop and catchy (in the best way) at the same time. Hope you enjoy it as I do.… Expand

    This is a great EDM album but it gets dragged down by two songs the ill fitted over crowded Jewels and Drugs and towards the end the song Dope doesn't fit well with the rest of the album. Overall great experience

    First of all, i am a pop music fan not especially a monster! Now for ARTPOP I like 12 out of 15 songs on the album. I like the thing that it's not so hype as the previous one. For now i can't say that she topped The Fame Monster (which one has crashed and rebuilt the pop music) but she has topped the rest pop albums of 2013. Congrats!

    This album is beyond perfection. Gaga has outdone herself and saved pop music once again. This electrically powerful album proves she is the best woman, if not individual, person in the pop music industry. ARTPOP is just too good and deserves the best of reviews.

    The melodies here are fine, they do a job, but nothing backs up Gag's Warholian rhetoric or scales the barmy heights of Bad Romance. [Jan 2014, p.116]

    While it’s stronger than the messy ‘Born This Way’, Artpop feels little more culture-quaking than a good collection of fun, silly, well-crafted pop songs.
