    She's outdone herself with this album. Her best body of work to date. So euphoric

    Lady Gaga is back on the dancefloor she fought for, and she killed it. That is all.

    A beautiful interpretation of her sadness turned into pop songs to show that there's happiness in the world during these scary times. The songs are cohesive and tell a beautiful story when played from start to finish in order. Almost all of them are radio material.

    Everything about this album is pure perfection. The production is astonishing, catchy and fresh.

    Definitely her most cohesive album in a while. A story of healing, survival and as she herself said it "dancing through pain" beginning to end. A true return to form, if you will. The wait was more than worth it. Once again, well done, Gaga!

    Such a fantastic album. Love the lyrics. Love the music. Great work. It's probably my second or third favorite of her albums.

    This album is really nothing impressive.

Also 15 full-dance songs are just too much.… Expand

    Conceito, coesão e aclamação. Não tem mais o que falar! Artista consolidada que não precisa provar mais nada à ninguém. Traz aqui uma gama de letras fortes e pessoais enquanto nos leva pra pista de dança em plena tristeza mundial devido à uma pandemia. LENDA!!!

    This album is so good from beginning to end. The lyrics are phenomenal. The vocals were outstanding. It's new, fresh but with nostalgia. The transitions are great. The story, the concept, everything is just so amazing!! I honestly hope Chromatica gets some grammys! This album deserves nothing less. Every single song is amazing and it's rare

    I don't even know why is this considered one of her best albums, even Joanne is better. First half sounds like basic recycled sounds from the 90s and early 10s. Second half gets better at least.

    Lady Gaga takes the driver seat once again in the Dance Music Pop world‼️ Album is fun, full of bops and creative. Stupid Love was underrated by most but there are many standouts.
    A must buy, stream and listen,

    Chromatica is a great Dance Pop Album.
    Lady Gaga convinced me this time for the 1st time with a complete Album. I like the personal issues combined with dance and electro Pop.
    My favorites are Alice., Babylon, 1000 Doves, Sine from Above and of course Interlude I - III. Very enjoyable album. The big success of it is very well deserved. PS: As much as I really love Madonna. She didnt    Chromatica is a great Dance Pop Album.

    PS: As much as I really love Madonna.
    She didnt convince with her releases after Confessions on a Dancefloor.
    The Albums of her still include great Songs - but come over as Compilations.
    Especially Hard Candy and MDNA. After those Album her commercial success (as it was before) was over. She got a litt bit back in form with her last two Albums - but still did not catch up with her former classic Album qualities. She was more interested in Movies than Music for a long time.    … Expand

    If I were to rate this album exclusively based on Chromatia II into 911, I'd give it a 12. That is the best transition I've heard in recent memory. Otherwise, the album is just regular strength good.

    Pensé que despues del album de future nostalgia de Dua Lipa no volvería a disfrutar tanto con otro album en 2020 hasta que llegó esta maravilla!

    Lady Gaga's sixth studio album Chromatica is nothing short of an exhilaratingly campy, fun pop album that comes at a time when people really need happy music to uplift their mood. We Little Monsters are blessed with this upbeat, positive album about combatting the negativity in life through self-acceptance and DANCING.

    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.
