    CHROMATICA is one of the best album since BORN THIS WAY. A 90's house dance club anthem hook signifies what the album is with matching high calibre vocals of Gaga and adding the fire of the album with collaboration with the high-rated pop star on this generation (Ariana Grande, BLACKPINK) and also the legend ELTON JOHN. This album will be featured on a gay festival or party.

    i'm listening to the album right now and i have some points :

    1. The Interlude : i'm speechles, the interlude really setting up the stage and emotion, i love the way the interlude seperate the album into 3 parts, it's actually a sign that an album has a concept of story telling. we can heard and listen to gaga singing about things that deep like her trauma, even tho it's a dance record    i'm listening to the album right now and i have some points :

    we can heard and listen to gaga singing about things that deep like her trauma, even tho it's a dance record you can't tell the lyrics is not that happy as you think it is!

    2. Transitions : So Smooth, oh my god, kudos to gaga, bloodpop and burn, it make the album better to listen as a whole, the track doesn't break up the emotion, it's a continuous journey.

    3. Pop perfection : songs are literally club bangers, very radio-friendly and hit potential! it has some the fame influenced sound that showcase a special features that gaga has (the robotic sound, catchy hook)

    10/10 for me    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is such a fantastic album in many ways because Lady Gaga invites you to sing along and dance with her, even if you're not ok! She earned the dancefloor from the beginning to the end on this album. Gaga is giving to the world everything we asked for. A marvelous and consistent concept with nostalgic touches from the 90s , 80s and contemporaneous sounds that makes the perfect harmony. We all know Gaga can sing and write songs, she already showed the world that, that's why she deserves to have fun with a pop moment now.… Expand

    Album of the year!
    Lady Gaga outdid herself with this one. It's been seven years since her last dance album and Chromatica doesnt have a single skip

The instruments and sounds that were use to create some beautiful sounds left me in great awe. For example, in the song Babylon, the sounds of the birds at the begging is just beyond anything.… Expand

    be aware: there's no return after drop on Chromatica.

    A new highlight on Lady Gaga's career. She is here, she is the moment. Many standouts to choose from: Rain On Me, Sour Candy, Sine From Above and Babylon.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After many years of doing so many things, from making a jazz album, to acting in a movie and guest starring in a tv series, Lady Gaga returns to her roots that is the dance floor as she said it “The dance floor is mine I earned it.” With many hearing the two first singles they thought they knew everything.... HA! The album is NOTHING like I expected! The album is kind of like a dream, or a movie. It has interludes that fit in perfectly whenever a song is and the other starts. As for the songs it’s sorta everything you wanted it to be. While the instrumentals are amazing to dance on and the songs are really wonderful to listen to, the lyrics are darker and deal with topics everyone at least deals once in their lives with. And Gaga made the album for this reason! She wants for those who suffered and have been damaged to know they are not worthless and that having reactions to your trauma and fears is part of being human. The record is about finding your way back to the joys of life. If you have ever suffered something or you are suffering right now please listen to the album and you will cry! Cry of happiness, of sadness, and anger! You will laugh, smile, dance, every emotion you will have will come forward! If you wanna get laid Sour Candy is the song! If you want a sign from above then Sine From Above is the song for you! There’s something for everyone because “In Chromatica no thing is greater then the other!”

    And finally my faves? Alice, Sine From Above, and 1000 Doves.

    Have much fun listening to the album because you have no idea what’s in store :)    … 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.
