    Its an incredible album. Very cohesive. What I loved most about this album is the collaborations with Ariana Grande, BLACKPINK and Elton John. We have decided to stan forever.

    Not a single skip. Her best album since Born This Way (though Artpop also bangs) and the best dance album in years!

    Can I just say this is Gaga’s best album so far? Probably not, but certainly her most cohesive one.

    I was hoping for some quality album like The Fame or Born This Way, but the only thing that I like was Rain On Me and the transition to 911.

    I like Gaga, but her last album is totally boring and the same old same old. I give it 1 because the only good thing about it is her collaboration with Ariana

    Overproduced, simplistic music. Her vocals aren’t nearly as interesting as they used to be on her earlier albums, even though they may be more “impressive” to a vocal coach. Babylon is the only good song.

    Wow, this album is everything we didn't know we needed. Great songs, feats and interludes. I can't decide which ones are my favorite.

    This is a good and really cohesive album, but unfortunately with some flaws.
    First thing first - this whole album could be a runway soundtrack and this is incredible. Each song is sonically connected to each other, so listening to the whole album is a nice experience, and if you want to listen to the songs separately - that's also fine. Lyrically is a basic Gaga level. The club/disco /90s    This is a good and really cohesive album, but unfortunately with some flaws.

Lyrically is a basic Gaga level. The club/disco /90s vibe is really pleasing on the album.

    The heavy production otherwise is really... noisy and flat at some point. I caught myself listening to the album and "missing" some songs because they blend with each other. I also have a feeling that Gaga wanted to recreate Confessions on the dancefloor experience with this album and somehow she made it, but (as I said) in a flat way.

    + Cohesive album with really cool sound
    + Good album idea
    + Great collaborations with other artists
    + Rain On Me

    - Some tracks are overproduced
    - The cohesivity of this album makes it flat at some point (lack of standout tracks)

    Este álbum superó totalmente mis expectativas le duela a quien le duela supero a Lover (pero no a Reputation) y está al mismo nivel de Future Nostalgia.

    Se que mi opinión no es muy importante pero se las quería decir calificando las canciones y me encantaría saber su opinión en los comentarios

    an excellent, different, fresh and surprising album! very well produced and so fun. Gaga really did a great job! Babylon, Replay, 911 and Stupid Love are one of the best songs from her ever!!!! awesome, flawless and remarkable.

    The album has a few good songs, but the rest is very average. It sounds like a pop album from 2010. Nothing sounds very modern or feels like it’s pushing boundaries.

    Uno de los mejores trabajos de gaga, cabe destacar que el álbum se debe escuchar en orden para apreciar los cambios / conexiones entre una canción y otra.

    This is Gaga's best album so far. There are no tracks to skip, and each one is connected with the others and tells a wonderful story. The only problem I have with this album is that I cannot choose a favourite song because all of them are so good.

    The perfect pop record. The Queen of the dance floor is back.
    It's one of my favourite albums.

    gaga has always been below par with her music since the fame monster and this is a new low. Yes the album s*cks and so did the numerous projects before it. It's time we forget gaga and the music industry bids her goodbye.

    Lady GaGa comes back with a new genre of music after her country-esque album Joanne flopped in 2016. This time the album is filled with annoying and dated instrumentals. The lyrics are tacky and lack common sense. Highlights include Sour Candy feat. an unkown girl group from China?, 911 and Enigma.
    All the other tracks are mediocre at best. Plastic Doll and Fun Tonight are probably GaGa's    Lady GaGa comes back with a new genre of music after her country-esque album Joanne flopped in 2016.

    Overall the album is a major disappoinment after all the hype. Very sad for Miss GaGa!    … Expand

    Sem dúvidas o álbum com menos identidade da cantora.
    Rain on me é a grande atração.

    EL MEJOR ÁLBUM, EL MAS ESPERADO, TIENE EXCELENTE CONTENIDO, MUY BUEN TRABAJO MERECE TODO EL ÉXITO Y MUY BUENA VALORACIÓN YA QUE GAGA A DEMOSTRADO DE NUEVO QUE ELLA ES BUENA EN LO QUE HACE Y NUNCA DECEPCIONA A LOS FANS CON SU MÚSICA LLENA DE ARTE, GRANDES COLABORADORES. #Chromatica ⚔️

    Very boring, nothing new, very underwhelming. She's trying to collaborate with new artists but everything's very dissapointed

    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.
