    Muy pesado y electronico de la decada pasada, no es agradable al escucharlo, ademas reciclaron varios sonidos de canciones demos ya existentes de los DJs productores del disco. Su pero trabajo definitivamente.....

    Same old Gaga gimmicks with the same old sounds. Great for just dance kids I guess. But she needs to stop with the antics and go in the direction of a star is born. Stripped down lovely vocals instead of this mess. My least favorite album of hers, and that's tough to say because chromatica is aweful, and ari saves it with rain on me

Intento que es valorado, pero que porCon una portada extravagante al típico estilo Gaga que sobresale por su sencillez y pobre terminación, mostrándonos una Gaga semidesnuda con las piernas extendidas con una bola azul cristalina delante, ARTPOP es el intento casi absurdo y ordinario de Gaga de consagrarse en una artista más allá del género pop a la hora de entregar un producto final. Intento que es valorado, pero que por desgracia pocas veces tiene éxito a ambos lados de la balanza. Con una demanda -compuesto en su mayoría por sus propios fans- casi bestial por consumir el siguiente hit bailable y fresco. Gaga no puede ser más que jugar a ser ambigua a medida que trata de llevar su carrera por nuevos rumbos sin dejar de pisar tierra firme y dar lo que “piden” los fans mientras trata de mantenerse fiel a su instinto artístico. O al menos es lo que queremos creer, ya que el resultado está posicionado más cerca a un insípido término medio.

    Solo con los primeros segundos de Aura, el punto de inicio se puede advertir que algo no marcha bien. Gaga gritando en gran parte del coro y los sintetizadores al máximo hacen que sea difícil de digerir tanto Swinne y MANiCure. Con la absurda Venus, Gaga se da un paseo sexual por el sistema solar usando el orgasmo femenino como tópico. Sexx Dreams es un desahogo mientras continúa empalagando hasta el ultimo compas con los saturados beats electrónicos innecesarios. En la repulsiva y fatídica Jewels N’ Drugs una canción completamente innecesaria y que se corona como la peor dentro del álbum
    Do What You Want To se convierte en la salvadora de oídos ya casi entrando a la mitad del álbum, una composición agradable y bien pulida, al igual que Dope una canción sin tanta instrumentación electrónica de por medio, solo con Gaga en el piano, pero que no se salva de la sobreproducción. Appplause, que es otra de las más grandes decepciones dentro del álbum, queda bien ubicada como cierre, solo para pedir disculpas. ARTPOP tiene una fragilidad e inconsistencia a nivel musical que se nota cuando sabes que lo único que tiene que ofrecer es el primer sencillo. Si Gaga trata de vivir de los aplausos, es incomprensibles que aleje a su publico más devoto con una entrega decepcionante y saturada de sintetizadores electro sobreproducidos, canciones de sobra y gritos estridentes innecesarios, con la excusa de ser un toque artístico. Y si se encontraba consolidada a ser la digna sucesora a reina del pop, con ARTPOP pierde cualquier oportunidad. ARTPOP está a años luz de ser “el álbum del milenio!!!!” como ella misma lo describió a gritos en sus redes sociales porque es sin duda el peor trabajo de su carrera.

    Her ambition made her failed totally. Combining the word "pop" and "art" didn't mean the pop music with art. Remember, sometimes you want to skip too far, you will probably fall.

    Um grande esterco sonoro. Swine, Dope e Jewls N Drugs piores trabalhos já feitos por uma cantora pop. É até vergonhoso considerarem esses gritos aleatórios, a voz arranhada e instrumentais barulhentos músicas - tão mais para sons atormentadores. Me ajuda RedOne!

    This is VERY disappointing effort coming from the woman who did The Fame and conquered the pop world. It feels like she recorded it in a few minutes by asking kindergarten pupils writing the lyrics. No art at all.

    This album was a big let down. It did not meet my expectations. Although her efforts to correlate music with art is very commendable, it was futile, as she was able to express but not deliver very well. Her past albums were fantastic, this one brought uniqueness in the industry but thhe music itself was not captivating.

    This album is a piece of crap. The sounds in most of the songs are annoying. She's just trying to stay relevant because no one pays attention to her anymore. That's why it flopped I guess. Even her clown costumes already bored the media. Good Luck Gaga.

    Since 2008, I fell in love with Lady Gaga because of her The Fame and The Fame Monster, mainly because the songs are catchy and the beats are good. However, in ARTPOP, Lady Gaga failed to deliver her message successfully and Zedd (to be honest, although I like him very much) is not as good as RedOne or Fernando Garibay.
    Some of the songs (Jewels N' Drugs, Fashion! & Mary Jane Holland) are really BAD. The are just like CRAP. And I dunno why Lady Gaga intend to put these songs into ARTPOP.
    I am basically dissatisfied with ARTPOP and I hope to see The Fame Gaga or The Fame Monster Gaga in the coming future.    … Expand

    ARTPOP is a good album, but it trips a little bit as you listen throughout the album, and it is awkward.

    Some songs like "Jewels n Drugs" and "Fashion" do not belong in the album and feel like placeholder songs. Here's a song by song review: Aura - 9 - A strong opening to the album; the production is fantastic in this song, despite the lyrics not making that much sense. Venus - 7 -    ARTPOP is a good album, but it trips a little bit as you listen throughout the album, and it is awkward.

    Some songs like "Jewels n Drugs" and "Fashion" do not belong in the album and feel like placeholder songs. Here's a song by song review:
    Aura - 9 - A strong opening to the album; the production is fantastic in this song, despite the lyrics not making that much sense.

    Venus - 7 - If Venus wasn't produced by Lady Gaga, I would give this song a lower score. But due to her getting hands on and making a 'not bad' beat, I have to give her credibility. Overall, this song feels like it belongs in the 90's or 80's.

    G.U.Y - 6 - The beat feels generic in some parts of the song and the lyrics aren't her best, but it is a song you can dance to.

    Sexxx Dreams - 8 - This is Lady Gaga's worst album, lyrically, but the production is better than her last albums. The song is also not your regular generic pop song and brings in a great 80's vibe.

    Jewels n Drugs - 3 - Skip this song. It sounds exactly like the other so called 'rap' songs and the artists featured on it do very little effort to save this song.

    MANiCURE - 8 - After JND, this song is refreshing and while not the best song lyrically, it is a great song to dance to,

    Do What U Want - 9 -While also not that good lyrically, it (sort of) conveys a good message and the beat is great. Different from your usual pop song.

    ARTPOP - 9.5 - One of the best songs on the album. This song sounds like something from The Fame era and upgraded a bit with one of ARTPOP's selection of beats. The lyrics also have some meaning, as she tries to explain what ARTPOP means.

    Swine - 8 - Taking a drift to the more EDM side of this album, this song really goes in. With a great beat, but some not so meaningful lyrics, this song is nice and is different from any song so far.

    Donatella - 6 - This song sounds like a more dumbed down version of Swine. I do have to give her some credit for taking a risk and making a song about fashion and designers, which isn't everyone's cup of tea.

    Fashion - 4 - While Donatella had great beats and production, this song takes a BIG step back and feels like a generic pop song, just with some odd lyrics. I do not know why she hired David Guetta and Will.I.Am to help make this song, as she was fine with her other producers, (Zedd, herself, etc.).

    Mary Jane Holland - 9.5 - The last noteworthy EDM song on ARTPOP, it makes a great finish, before heading to the slower songs. This song sounds awesome and the lyrics are not bad at all. It is way different than any song that Gaga has done so far (besides Bloody Mary).

    Dope - 7 - This song does deserve some credit for trying to switch genres very quickly, but it does not execute it well. This ballad also has some okay lyrics.

    Gypsy - 8 - This song sounds like another ballad at first, but then switches to Dance. This sudden change is the best part about this song, and it is executed very well.

    Applause - 5 - While I was expecting a great song to finish this album, I was instead greeted by a generic pop song that you would hear on the radio. The lyrics are nice though and it feels like an okay ending song,

    ARTPOP is good depending on which genres you like. If you like EDM/Dance, this album will be great to you. If you're looking for ballads, ARTPOP is probably not your cup of tea. Overall, this is an good album, but disappointing. Hopefully, Volume 2 will be executed better.    … Expand

    Beats generic and over, two words to define "artpop" certainly this was by far the worst job and will be Lady Gaga's, and Zedd's as a producer was not to be expected a good job as it was "The Fame", very noisy and dirty, all tracks or talk about sex or drugs

    It's amazing how Lady Gaga can't do anything significant in terms of music.

    Lost within his own aesthetic self-adulation, it simply can't deliver something that has a minimum of consistency for even the already shallow standards of mainstream pop bum that currently prevails. Groups of songs which released in each of their albums really deserves attention, but only by the poor quality of the final product.
    Even reaching their third album, artpop recently released, this characteristic was not altered. On the contrary! Right off the bat, it's clear that Gaga is confusing.
    The song that opens the album, "Aura", is lost in an attempt to cause awkwardness with a sound "Grace Jones at brazillian samba" in his introduction, amended with a semblance of "pile driver" electronic dance periphery she also features in "Gypsy" which can only cause boredom. Very boredom.
    What follows is even more awkward. "Venus", "Applause" and "GUY" seem soundtracks of drag queens contest imitation Madonna, while "Sexxx Dreams" sounds like a stupid 14 year old girl trying to make a version of a song from the Air
    She still tries pathetically to acquire a 'street credibility' tasteless putting rappers like TI, Too Short and Twista to finish spoil horribly tense "Jewels n 'Drugs'.
    "Manicure" is the 'time rock' album, such a pathetic thing that makes you want to turn Lady Gaga in a cheap and boot it to cross a chicken coop. The same goes for when she approaches the "indie universe" that independent has nothing these days to prepare a pastiche of Cansei de Ser Sexy vocals imitating Christina Aguilera on the up-beat "Fashion".
    The ridiculous partnership with R. Kelly in the dreadful "Do What U Want" is just an emblematic sign of this lack of harmony in his career. Designed to be a "radio hit" with her straight rhythm, keyboard and synth pop jaded middle robotic voices, the song falls apart very weak both by letter and by the way they treated both their voices, as if the pair were seminal in a contest karaoke.
    The title track and "Donatella" are so trampled upon sound of Madonna arriving to confuse the most unwary, especially the vocal, a perfect imitation that makes Lady Gaga Ciccone. Incidentally, this facet 'imitator' also appears in "Swine" in which she tries to sound like Joan Jett with neck pain over an absolutely suck basis of several things that made Fatboy Slim on your disks, and also in Mary Jane Holland, "that looks like a rejected song by Pink. Shame!
    The "Dope" ballad, sung as if Gaga was a housekeeper zombie fan, Meat Loaf, a mansion on the edge of a swamp in some kitschy Broadway musical, is perfect for your Bocos fans dubbed "little monsters" by singer herself continue to believe she is a "sensitive artist". How pathetic ...
    Yes, what matters is to topple Lady Gaga hits on the TV stations and radio programming, appearing in the media and put innocent people to buy tickets for their increasingly empty presentations. Except that there is no point being a 'obsessed', 'perfectionist' and authoritarian, the kind that rules the roost in your team to get the desired worship artist, if your sound is so 'little leg' as we hear in this artpop. There is no "clips with weird visual" to save this record a complete artistic sinking     … Expand

    Um album totalmente chato, enjoativo e nada inovador... de art não vi nada, de pop só fragmentos, na maioria são tentativas frustadas de criar algo diferente, mas o que ouço só musica genérica.

    As a huge Gaga fan I was really waiting for this album, unfortunately I have to admit I was thoroughly disappointed. Her singing voice is is harsh and throaty, she is oversinging and the lyrics are inane. Artpop is boring, predictable and unoriginal yes but most of all it's empty. It's empty as the state of music today.

    Ja foi bom, atualmente não passa de algo sem sentido, flopada, sem conteúdo e que não mostra realmente a arte que tem no pop. Realmente esta decaída, por isso ninguém mais se importa!

    The album is entirely boring. There is a vague proposal to introduce a concept, something that remains vacant until the last sound. Lady gaga has been better and seems to be falling into oblivion, no longer knows innovate and its image is saturated.

    My final opinion on artpop: Love, but has no songs that will make you remember in the future as Monster, Dance In The Dark, Scheiße. Artpop is just another album any Without any purpose, without content and mostly without art.

    This is not art and is not pop.
    Simply the worst album of her career. The songs seem leftover The Fame Monster and Born This Way.
    Definitely not a good album. Might work for the dance floor but it is not pleasant to hear.

    The only thing impressive about this record is the fact that Gaga somehow manages to come off as pretentious even through her music. Yet again, Gaga just tries way too hard to be "creative" and "artistic." ARTPOP is plagued track after track with stupid and unrelatable lyrics. None of the collaborations have any chemistry. She wails and over-sings on every track. Mess.

    I couldn't listen to ARTPOP more than twice. It's not enjoyable, it feels like she put together all the sounds she could find and she got a weird, all-over-the-place album with songs that have her yelling awfully

    One word: mess. It's nice that she is lightening up her subject matter a little bit, but it's at the point where I feel less intelligent after listening (Fashion! and Donatella). There are other songs which try too hard to mean things (Venus and Artpop). It isn't cohesive and it's just embarrassing not to mention I just have no preference for very little of the songs. Disappointed.

    I really do not like her music anymore. Terrible. It's almost like what the heck is she thinking. Getting too desperate for money, and there is not talent underneath a bunch of overplayed dance beats. There is an unnecessary duet with R. Kelly. Utter garbage, really. She does have a lot of fans that stay true to her, called "Monsters". Sorry, Ms, Gaga.

    Fist, for Nyel: Gaga is not the only writer in ARTPOP's songs, "done"? that's not specific.
    It is disappointing that gaga is very pretentious and egocentric: "Pop culture was an art, now art's in pop culture, in me ,saying "ARTPOP" after "Sex" (No sense!) in Aura.

About the sound, there's already a lot of DJ's and producers that have made experimental electronic music... Gaga (rather her producers) are not doing something unique. The lyrics and lady gaga's voice could be the only good in the album but is widely overshadowed by the sound and sometimes by Lady Gaga's screams, grunts, weird ways to sing, and, in some parts, her very synthesized voice... ARTPOP it's a bad experiment.    … Expand

In the end, she's a decoy without much doubt a great singer, but one unable to bring anything new to the table. Ridiculously poor on lyrical side as well, Gaga seems to have lost the touch; recycling old ideas is hardly inspiring for absolutely anyone who is at least somewhat aware of the art world... That being said, I'm positive ARTPOP will be a bestseller Gaga has the most devoted fans out there, willing to jump through fire for her. And maybe that's the best description of the music industry today: if you have the fans to buy your records, then who cares if the record is good?… Expand

    The great thing about this record is that you can count on never having to listen to it again. There's some solid instrumentals and beats here, but the lyrics are...I can't even quantify what they are. It's like the crazy cat lady who never leaves her house wrote an album with a horny sixth grade boy pitching in on lines she couldn't finish.

If you listen to more than Top 40, you realize this album, and she herself are nothing special. I can't say I'm disappointed, because I've yet to be truly impressed by her. I give the album a complete zero. If for no other reason than the album failing at its own concept. There is no art, and it's subpar pop.

She needs to focus more on writing songs and less on coming up with clown suits to get attention. Her flying dress didn't lift off the ground to high and neither does this horrible album. It truly is an #ARTFLOP. She even has a song called Fashion that copies the bass line from Madonna's superior single Holiday. It's probably the most interesting song on the album, but it's not even original. It's a fraud. Swine and Aura are like listening to someone scrape a chalkboard.
