    An amazing triumph from Lady Gaga! An excellent pop record and interesting concept. The composition and lyrics are unmatched. She's doing what she does best. Bravo!

    The Best Album Of The Year, she gave us back an extinct time from which we remember her excellent music, however it is no longer necessary to miss, Gaga is back.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's a cinematic rocket-propelled voyage along a matrix of brokenness and dance euphoria. If you enter Chromatica with an openness to share in the universal human experience is joy and pain true to us all, you will both find an album that empathises and invites you to dance, and dance even when you cry.… Expand

    É inegável que com 12 anos de carreira Lady Gaga continua poderosa e indiscutivelmente criativa. Com certeza já considerada uma lenda viva

    talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it. Alice, Replay, Babylon, 911 & Sour Candy my top 5!

    Chromatica is a dream come true to anyone that loves dancing records. There is a lot of beats to really get down on the dance floor with. However, the lyrics aren’t as strong as some of her previous works and I personally don’t think this is a good follow up to Joanne.

    What can I even say about this project other than it's complete perfection? Lady Gaga once again show us how talented and versatile she is, from the whole concept of the album down to the fact that all of the songs are "single material", the melodies are fun, catchy and just makes you wanna dance non-stop, the lyrics have real deep meanings and show her relationship with the fame, her fansWhat can I even say about this project other than it's complete perfection?

Besides that Gaga also feed us with songs transitions and 3 act story telling album. It's beautiful, it's powerful, it transgress throughout time, It's vocally amazing and it's also very healing and deep. Lady Gaga has just given her all in this album and you can hear her soul as she invites you to this journey through Chromatica with her, celebrating tears and dancing over the pain.… Expand

    Is not her best album, but is a really good album, a banger. The beats and some lyrics are amazing. I really liked the 1990's-2000's electronic music vibes. Her strongest songs: 911, Alice and Babylon. The weakest: Free Woman (the demo was more powerful, the official version sound like a remix). I think that is missing the "X" Factor on this album, but again, is a very good job. Also, IIs not her best album, but is a really good album, a banger. The beats and some lyrics are amazing.

I think that is missing the "X" Factor on this album, but again, is a very good job. Also, I noticed that is a combination with The Fame, Born This Way and ARTPOP. All the team did a good work. The lyrics are dark with a upbeat rhythm. I appreciate that she did not but a ballad in the album, because maybe it could kill the vibe of the album. The duration at first I doubted, but later I get that if the songs where more longer, it could became repetitive. Can't wait for the tour or residence and the other visuals. A really good album!… Expand

    na minha opiniao, é o pior album solo dela, esse album é muito datado pro nivel da gaga, bem chato, o lead single "stupid love" ja nasceu saturado, so 1000 doves (normal e piano), love me right (musica da target) e alice se salvam

    depois de dois álbuns literalmente "fracos" comercialmente e no conceito (o que muitos dizem), Chromatica FINALMENTE é um álbum inteiramente pop/dance. até mesmo as interludes que, pessoalmente, eu detestava em qualquer álbum ou achava desnecessário, em Chromatica elas tem transições (apesar de não ser nada inovador mas...) com as músicas seguintes o que torna o álbum mais homogêneo. asdepois de dois álbuns literalmente "fracos" comercialmente e no conceito (o que muitos dizem), Chromatica FINALMENTE é um álbum inteiramente pop/dance. até mesmo as interludes que, pessoalmente, eu detestava em qualquer álbum ou achava desnecessário, em Chromatica elas tem transições (apesar de não ser nada inovador mas...) com as músicas seguintes o que torna o álbum mais homogêneo. as faixas que se destacam e que deveriam se tornar single: ALICE, SINE FROM ABOVE e BABYLON. obrigado lady gaga por um dos melhores álbuns da DÉCADA!!!… 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.
