    Pretentious filthy, generic pop pieces trying to be art, the lyrics are dumb and repetitive as hell, and the production could be much better. There are 2 or 3 good tracks as much.

    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. There's no fresh ideas anymore.. anybody is seen as this big artistAs a huge Gaga fan I was really waiting for this album, unfortunately I have to admit I was thoroughly disappointed.

    The greatest female pop album of the year. No doubt! Here we can see a happier Gaga. A colorful and joyful moment after the dark (but great) 2011 Born This Way.

    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.

    O melhor album de 2013, Lady Gaga tem o poder de se superar a cada projeto. Nenhuma cantora nos dias atuais representa tão bem o pop como Lady Gaga. Cheio de batidas muito bem sintetizadas e com vozes de efeito duplo e triplo, ARTPOP nos leva a uma viagem indescritível. ARTPOP fechou 2013 com chave de ouro, o cenário musical agradece.

    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.

    While Born This Way may have been a more cohesive pop album, clearly trying to blend 80s rock and electronic pop to varying degrees of success, for some, it just didn't hit the same pleasure center of her earlier albums.

    Born This Way featured some of Gaga's best songs, and best songwriting to date (Marry the Night, Schiesse, Hair, Edge of Glory) but was seen as being dragged down by    While Born This Way may have been a more cohesive pop album, clearly trying to blend 80s rock and electronic pop to varying degrees of success, for some, it just didn't hit the same pleasure center of her earlier albums.

    Born This Way featured some of Gaga's best songs, and best songwriting to date (Marry the Night, Schiesse, Hair, Edge of Glory) but was seen as being dragged down by all of its artistic pretensions and messaging.

    Gaga herself stated that her previous record was an attempting at being mature, and ARTPOP is her allowing herself to be a bit immature. Through that lens it is easy to understand ARTPOP's mission: to make you dance.

    And so ARTPOP comes with a much higher ratio of outright bangers, all reminding us of the dizzying diversity of her musical influences as she genre-trips through the album's 60 minutes.

    This is a fun, immature pop album which, while perhaps empty of meaningful commentary, was designed to be exactly that. They are vague allusions to high art, but she really just wants you to dance again.

    Is it a musical regression? Not quite. Gaga experiments with a far broader spectrum of genres than before (even a respectable attempt at electro-trap) and has incorporated new influences that should fuel interesting developments in her future albums, when her career is in a place that allows for even more musical experimentation.

    Meanwhile, she has added another batch of career defining jams to her cannon, and has shown that even though she is clearly moving in a direction that responds to some of her more recent criticisms, she is still, without a doubt, her own woman    … Expand

    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

    For a normal singer album called ARTPOP would have been something great but not to the standards of GAGA. The album has to be full of hits and great songs as GUY, Gypsy or even Venus, but he brings something amazing, something very different from other albums released, it differs from Katy ,Miley or Britney because ARTPOP presents high level of quality compared to others.

    ARTPOP brings in the boring again for Lady Gaga. While tracks like GUY and Gypsy are stand outs, the rest of the album just lulls a girl to sleep...bring back 'The Fame', Gaga!

    That sucks! OMG, how can anyone hear it? Never buy artpop, you will regret it! A copy of other mixed albums for other singers. Extremely loud and annoying.

    lower than expected, sickening beats, lyrics without feeling some written by more than 5 people, Lady Gaga did not ascend to the expected level artpop only declined and showed that it is not so important to pop music.

    So many songs and nothing said, no messages has been passed to who's listening... Lady Gaga is so full of pride but she doesn't have humility and we can see it on ARTPOP... What a delusion

    Não sei o que dizer, só sei que mais uma vez Gaga pisou na Britney massacrando o Britney Jean, Gaga rainha do pop, Britney nem rainha, nem princesa, nem pop.

    ARTPOP, the album where art blends in with the modern day of music and pop. It flourishes like Katy Perry's PRISM except with much more dance records making the whole album more energetic and the production is charming. A lovely album I must say.

    This record breathes new life into the Lady Gaga discography. It starts off with an unveiling of a character that has killed off her former and makes her way to Hollywood.

It starts off with an unveiling of a character that has killed off her former and makes her way to Hollywood. That leads into a sexual journey of awakening and new exciting positions which will thrill you and have you dancing. R. Kelly joins Gaga as she tells the media to do what they want to her body because this record is all about the journey that is both personal and satisfactory. It's slowed down by Dope, a haunting tune that is one of her most personal to date. Then picked back up again in Gypsy, a tale of a traveling woman who needs to balance love and career. Ending at Applause, ARTPOP ends your journey and I guarantee you that you'll be dying for more. 10/10 because it's the perfect "pick me up" album. I dare you to stop hitting replay.… Expand

    Dois longos anos se passaram, Lady Gaga está de volta, e mescla seus antecessores albuns de uma forma incrivelmente radiofônica, levada desde as mais cobiçadas casas noturnas aos botequins da esquina.

    The melodies here are fine, they do a job, but nothing backs up Gag's Warholian rhetoric or scales the barmy heights of Bad Romance. [Jan 2014, p.116]

    While it’s stronger than the messy ‘Born This Way’, Artpop feels little more culture-quaking than a good collection of fun, silly, well-crafted pop songs.
