    Chromatica is just another in Lady Gaga's long list of overrated meaningless albums. It filled with fillers, and less than 3 minute songs meant to generate streams and increase her chart position.

    Chromatica is an album struggling to find an identity within a modern day music landscape, that has unflatteringly obvious flaws and issues painfully stemming from Lady Gaga's lack of artistic or musical creative effort, and hence more lack of cohesive sound or vision.

    Gaga has possibly released the most underwhelming album in recent memory. This thing lacks direction, cohesion or differentiation from its predecessors and its modern competition. It has so many sounds, ideas and potential that is shoved into a clunky, awkward and often boring musical and lyrical route, that masks its misused and untouched sounds and ideas as some kind of artistically driven vision. It looks as though Gaga has, disappointingly, seen an opportunity to latch onto sounds that look appealing to general audiences - yet failing to pair most of those sounds to something resembling anything more than poor. It lacks depth, meaning, rhyme and reason and doesn't deserve to be held in any sort of high regard.

    Stuffed with inconclusive experimentation and befuddlingly unsatisfying musical elements, Chromatica appears as a leech onto music that, in theory, appeals to the most people possible. The execution of this, however, is basic, uninteresting and ambiguous in its message, if it even has one. From the cold and raw dance house pop of "Alice" to the surface level emotive disco-reminiscent of "1000 Doves," this body of work feels messy at best. The tether between what Gaga needs and wants to do is muddied in ambiguity and her vocals come off as eerily unpleasant in most of the times she tries to emphasise her voice. It seems as though the intent for this was to have Gaga return to a somewhat comforting dancefloor sound, but with little to no effort to have any semblance of artistic growth or sonical depth.

    In the grand scheme of her musical career, Chromatica is a harsh reminder of Gaga's failure to keep the edge and flair she once held so pristinely, as she battles modern-day musical trends and struggles to re-establish herself as a musical force. This album epitomises devolved and uninspired musical artistry, and makes me doubtful she will be able to reclaim the sound she has been so desperately chasing for years.

    With an extreme effort lady Gaga create a stretched 43 minutes album 4/4 kick + snare or hh or clap + 4 random notes. Flat, nothing new, not even a single spark of creativity. Ok, it’s a dance album, but it doesn’t mean it has to be that flat.

"Chromatica" is a mix of recycled sounds that, by the end of the album all blend together. Nothing stands out, and the tracks that catch a little bit of one's attention are either collaborations, or songs that remind us a bit too much of someone else's work (hello there, Babylon!). This album would be ok for a new artist just cutting the cord from some good years working for Disney. For Lady Gaga it is a new low, which is not the worst because the creepy and distasteful collaboration with R Kelly still exists, despite being conveniently removed right before the Oscar's ceremony. Don't waste your time. Expand

    Gaga was once the future of pop music, her music felt ahead of its time. One would expect her to evolve and develop as an artist as she grew older, to dig deeper and try new things. To try harder, especially after not releasing music for so long.
    She worked with Sophie and Grimes, however, this lazy body of work is what she came up with.
    Chromatica sounds like a Disney ex-Act debut

    Chromatica sounds like a Disney ex-Act debut album. One of the most uninspired pop albums of the past decade.
    Redundant and outdated sound, she wanted to ride the Disco trend so hard she twisted it into some horrendous ridiculous beats. She teased this Chromatica world yet it is not a visual album, songs don't narrate a story, music videos are all over the place, no cohesiveness.
    This is her 6th album, an album she allegedly spent 4 years making, but I am afraid this was treated as some random EP. We should have known when she released The Cure, one of the worst pop songs ever. I predict she has given up and she will keep herself relevant with side projects such as high budgets films whilst releasing these mild uninspired pop albums.

Reminiscent of some of the production found in Artpop she takes it to the next level in this album and it, ultimately, falls short. Though I must say, I don’t necessarily blame her; I blame the fandom that she has gathered over the years. Her fandom seems to not be supportive of some of her more creative and artistic efforts, with some even ignoring the existence of her collaborative jazz albums. My personal favorite of hers, Joanne, is her most artistic and raw project to date yet it was dragged and labeled as a commercial “flop” specifically because her fans do not seem to support her unless she releases something that can be played at a club. Once again, an example of how her followers have made her put out something that, in my opinion, felt less inspired than other project in exchange for something that her fans would like more.

    Chromatica proves that Lady Gaga was not willing to take another risk right after the reception her fans had to Joanne and I do respect that. Taking creative risks can be scary. I am, however, excited for what the future holds for Gaga because even though Chromatica was simply not for me I still believe she is a brilliant star.

    Tryna stay relevant but this album is totally not it. Lyrics are just bad and quite meaningless.

    Um álbum ótimo porém faltou inovação da parte da Lady Gaga. Um álbum morno para algo tão aguardado por todos.

    Album péssimo o que salva ele são os feats que ele possui de resto é horrível, batida extremamente chata pra deixar as letras das músicas depressivas mais alegres, porém só fica uma coisa desconexa e chata.

    I was waiting Lady Gaga album for so long but this album was so boring. Maybe it's a good ideia Just keep making music for films.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Péssimo álbum, datado e genérico. Lady Gaga morreu mesmo, já foi alguém de relevância. Folklore maior ato do ano. Expand

    The nostalgia in the production — a blend of crisp digital synth textures and ringing grooves drawn directly from '90s house music — further bolsters the shadowed euphoria of a song like "Sour Candy," in which Gaga is joined by the K-pop girl group Blackpink; "Sine from Above," featuring Elton John, gets a similar friction from the interplay between their voices.

    Infectious, exciting and even a little hedonistic during some of the most confusing of modern times, now’s never been a better time to get lost in this new destination.

    Chromatica’s frank grappling with the vagaries of Gaga’s brain – and the way fame exacerbates them – ends up feeling much more real than touring dive bars with a guitar and a Stetson ever did.
