artpop sees gaga embracing edm inspirations in a way that is way more tasteful than most pop/edm crossovers that were popular by the time this album was made. my issue with this album is that i think the overall flow from track to track isn't that great mostly because i feel like there are some unecessary songs and i would've like the album experience a bit more if it was fully focused on the edm sound. also when applauses ends i'm like "is this how you end your ... read more

there are many bops on this album but also some flops.
favourites: Boys; 24 Hours; Omanko; You're Not The One; I Will; Night Time, My Time

still, i actually love this album, this is deep, personal and somehow intersting because of the way it sounds kinda bad but i'm ... read more
