I don't understand the "they are not as good because they are in the deluxe version" argument tho, like, if they weren't strong enough in the first place, then why release them. Sometimes, commercial success means undermining the music and Dua is a great example. You can't release an 11-track album, that was meant to be that way, by adding a whole bunch of songs (even those who were made by other artists for other albums aka Prisoner) out of nowhere that don't even have any cohesion with the og album. This means Dua doesn't have any kind of artistic integrity, but, are we really surprised?
I'm glad Gaga never had to do these cheap tactics. She always stayed true to her concepts and didn't have to release 34536536346 versions of the same album.
