Mostly just comparing the similarities in their career trajectories ARTPOP was her Erotica, their first major sign of commercial decline, and an era where the GP was mostly against them Joanne was her Bedtime Stories, a more stripped-back album to slowly win back the GP A Star is Born was her Evita, a hit movie with a hit soundtrack and her most acclaimed movie role to date Following next in line for Madonna was Ray of Light, which was a huge success and is still widely seen as her best/second best album. Then Gaga gaves us Chromatica which is a cute album but it's certainly no Ray of Light Edited April 18, 2022 by JennyWayne 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her only win/nomination was a golden globe. Not even critics circles touched it with a ten foot pole. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does Chromatica fit in here? I thought asking for Gaga's RoL was more about a career shift with a more mature pop sound while also garnering newfound critical acclaim with good commercial success. Chromatica had the makings of it initially--a very cohesive album that is well-received. Unfortunately we all know what happened. Another thing to consider is Madonna entered a new phase in her life where she explored her spirituality and new life-philosophy, and these fueled the deep lyricism and amazing melodies of the album. Frozen and the Power of Goodbye are f-ing amazing ballads with good relatable lyrics without being too generic. Ray of Light itself was a very high-octane energetic track. Nothing Really Matters starts slow and then builds up to a full electronic dance track, reflecting the lyrics of how she started selfish and then becoming more selfless. Basically Madonna hit it with a perfect storm of reinvention with meaning that resonated with the GP. This brings me back to what I said before about Gaga's lyrics (i.e., Enigma) lacking some personal inspiration. Even if they were there, they're too vague in some places. Gaga speaks a lot about going through pain and suffering from it, and songs that explore this (i.e., Alice and 911) are the ones that shine musically and lyrically. Since Joanne she's been trying to find an outlet to "heal" herself for music and I'm a bit sad and worried for her that she still has this problem even during Chromatica era. If and when Gaga connects with her music and channels it properly, the commercial success will follow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
