    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

    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

    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

    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 :)

    Everything in this album is up to perfection, sonically and aesthetically speaking. Lady Gaga thought of every single detail of this album, put up a show with this concept and created a whole new world called Chromatica, that with 16 song tell us a story of who is Lady Gaga today, right now. Summing up, Lady Gaga does not need the pop music, but the pop music needs Lady Gaga.

    Lady Gaga showed us AGAIN just why she's this generation's QUEEN OF POP. From the interludes to the songs itself, the album just works and is cohesive. The dissonance lies in the upbeat sound while talking about her own trauma and previous experiences. But that's what makes it great. Gaga promised an album to dance through the pain and she delivered.
