Lady Gaga’s rootsier sound and image on Joanne is a welcome change of pace, though she doesn’t always commit to the new direction.

Y’all know this is just my opinion, right?

hey girl is a elton john ripoff
Misogynistic cuck. You are clearly threatened by a woman of color. Lady Gaga is the most talented black musician in history and you are a racist. Dislike!
Look at all the butthurt in the comments! Lol! Fucking wankers
do you even like any music at all?
My favorite songs on Joanne are:
1. Diamond Heart
2. Just Another Day
3. John Wayne
4. Grigio Girls
5. Hey Girl
I don’t care for this album, i can’t get into it. A major departure from her previous albums.
wow, anthony im surprised you didnt like a-yo 😮 its one of my favs
Sorry Anthony I dismissed all of your opinions when you barely gave Diamond Heart any attention and said it was surface level and like every other Gaga song… whoops
I thought this was an extraordinary album! Gaga’s Swordfishtrombone or Rubber soul. A transitional LP that shows us what a great singer-songwriter lives inside her! Let’s hope she comes up with her own Rain Dogs soon!
Review The Fame or The Fame Monster!
i wonder if he actually buys these records or if record labels sends him copies to review.
What are the albums on the shelf?
The meat dress alone makes anything she does at most a 3.3671 out of 10. I give her new record a 2.143673 out of 10. I have a very specific algorithm for this stuff.
Gaga is an experimental artist. she did jazz, she did dance, she did electro, she did disco, she did rock and Joanne is her country experimental album. bruh you don’t know your shit its not like she didn’t commit to the sound or the image its just not her! and i don’t think any or her older albums are her. we may never know the real gaga as she likes to say she’s a chameleon.
Everybody is going a bit more pared down for some reason-like visually and with their music ? I guess the time period?
(I am thinking of MIley Cryus as well).
I really love the direction Gaga went
…..until The Cure
LIKE CLOCKWORK
metal box and gaga in the same shot is quite a clash isn’t it? 😉
you hunny are too picky
its a pop album – you have to keep that in mind
she tries too hard to be diverse lol
I’m still in shock a year later that some people think that lyrically this album wasn’t that great. It was definitely the most pure and raw, and the most meaningful work she’s ever done. I felt her heart in this album. I think most people don’t know the meaning behind most of the tracks and that could have played a part in their not understanding.
Tastless bitch
Lady Caca
Did you think Gaga didn’t really quite know what style direction to take? I feel like a few groups of songs on the record could’ve been expanded into a couple albums.
I think Gaga fans are too sensitive 🙂

He gave Carly Rae Jepsen a better review than Lady Gaga’s album, says a lot how Carly has improved.
“For a GaGa song [Angel Down’s policital statement] is pretty heavy, it’s pretty serious.” Dude…
I’ve tried getting into this dude’s videos multiple times but I just can’t. He just seems he doesn’t like pop music and inherently hates anything reminiscent of a pop song structure. Joanne is a pop album but he was trying to review it like a rock album and then was disappointed when it came up short. He seems to do that a lot.
I wish you reviewed Born This Way like this: insightful and constructive. I was disappointed when I realized that half of the Born This Way review was composed of the skit.
A-YO slayed though 🙁
I was focusing less on the review and more on the fact that the …Like Clockwork cover was blue.
“Angel Down” is, in my opinion, quite bad and closes the album with a whimper instead of a bang. “Million Reasons” is easier on the ears but not a song I listen to often.
But other than that, this album is great. “Come to Mama” and “John Wayne” are the stars. This record is almost as good as *Born This Way,* which is Gaga’s masterpiece.
I feel like he has a bias opinion on her. He’s more of a nerd so he doesn’t really connect with anything besides lame shit.
I would give it a strong 7,5/10.A-Yo too is my least favourite song along with Just Another Day(Both are nice)
Gaga’s core will always be pop, but the exterior is always changing. It’s not like she’s going to completely abandon pop music. I wish reviewers would stop expecting her to fully commit to a different genre when she never claims that she wants to do that. What’s wrong with playing with different sounds and genres?
The Fame Monster and ARTPOP were the only albums by her that I liked. The rest is trash.
