    SOMETHING FRESH AND NEW, just what we need in this moment. The transition from Chromatica II to 911 is LIFE!

    There's no words to describe Chromatica.
    The album takes us on a nostalgic trip to the nineties dance floors. On the album Gaga explores her multiple facets, and as an artist who changed pop culture, Chromatica is right to remind us of that.

    Un álbum completo en todos los sentidos, sin nada de relleno, con ritmos muy bailables y lo mejor de todo es que posee letras muy profundas. Definitivamente lo mejor que ha pasado en esta cuarentena fue Chromatica

    It is a brilliant EDM album. I can't stop listening to it and the more I listen to it, the more I love it. Listening to it connects me to Lady Gaga and gets me closer to her.

Her speeches are always so profound and emotional that you can't help but cry. I am a relatively recent fan of hers but will be her fan and love her so deeply until I give my last breath on this earth. She inspires me everyday to be a better version of myself. To be a better mother to my daughter and a better wife to my husband and a better daughter to my parents. She is beautiful outside and inside. Her bubbly personality gives you the giggles and you can't help but laugh because she is so funny and draws you in immediately.She has made my life so much brighter and colourful. I love her to the moon and back. Chromatica is my go to dance album of 2020.Lady Gaga is my idol.… Expand

    I've never been more intrigued by an artist as I'm with Gaga, and I feel like Chromatica represents perfectly what Gaga embodies: The weirdness, this enigmatic figure that came out of nowhere and exploded into the pop atmosphere, the mistery of her persona.

Yet, Chromatica feels rrally personal and well thought-out, carefully crafted to express her deepest feelings while keeping the mistery of who Gaga really is alive.

    This album feels honest, vulnerable, empowering and takes you to the dancefloor with every listen. The 90s house influences are all over the album, starting with the dance monster that "Alice" is, yet the production doesn't sound dated at all, on the contrary, it's a perfect mix between old school dance and modern pop, with trimphant and themic hooks made for the dancefloor, there are also moments where Gaga let's go and channels the inner underground Gogo dancer in New York surrounded by the magic of ballroom and the powerful LGBTQ scene of the 90s and early 2000s. Tracks like "Free Woman", "Alice" "Babylon", "Sour Candy" and "Enigma" sound like they were specially crafted with the ballroom scene in mind, hard bumping beats made to vogue the house down and honor those who inspired Gaga's persona over the years, those who helped her find the inner star.

    I think it's safe to say that this is Gaga's best album, it's, as many people can tell, not her most risky project, but it doesn't fall into pretentious territory like "Born This Way" and "ARTPOP" did, this one feels genuine, and just the perfect amount of Gaga's campiness and the good old feel of music that sounds familiar to your heart. The cohesion in Chromatica is impeccable, and connecting each act of the album with cinematic and strings-driven interludes only helped to take a break from the powerful synths and beatslike we were about to enter an intergalatic war with Gaga playing on our spaceships radios.    … Expand

    Un álbum totalmente diferente a lo que suena en la actualidad, sin duda vino a refrescar la industria musical, algunas letras parecen repetitivas pero se compensa con una producción extraordinaria.

    I have no words to explain how I feel about this album. I waited for so long and it was worth it! It brings me joy, hope and well... makes me cry, because it makes me think about life, the world, society and things that we SHOULD indeed think. Thank you, your sensitivity was heard.

    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.
