I just checked on Rhapsody for the new releases this week. They have a new album by the above referred to "artist". It is her SECOND album. I have been hearing about this sk__k for years, and this is only her second album? God help this country.

She's far from the worst. I direct your attention to Ke$ha.

Bingo we have a winner. Then again, this is like trying to compare a fully formed turd to explosive diarrhea.

Whoa, easy people! Lady Gaga has like 35 million followers on Facebook and is the most popular musician in the world. If you listen to her music and read the lyrics (without judging so quick) she is actually a very crafty songwriter and talented singer. Plus, b/c of her $$, she gets top notch musicians.

Plus, she's becomming a zillionaire, you think she cares what any of you think?
Be the cliché you want to see in the world.

She may drive you nuts, but Gaga is a musical chamelion and does what she does really well. I'm no fan of dance-pop or whatever style she chooses to switch to, but she does have talent. Ke$ha does not. Gaga's music is not original in the least, but you gotta give her some credit for creating a compelling persona in a music world filled with vapid E! starlets.

I give her credit for at least doing her own thing and (I believe) composing her own music. But at the same time, stop being preachy and weird for the sake of weird. At some point it's more "HEY EVERYONE! LOOK AT ME! I'M SO UNIQUE!" than anything inspiring.
I'm surrounded by assholes

I agree with the latter. At some point she'll have to tone it down. I think some of the hiding she does (behind makeup, wigs, costumes and glasses) comes because she is stunningly homely, and knows it. I don't think she writes much of her own stuff, but has control over the production. She surrounds herself with top producers and writers much like Madonna has done for the better part of 30 years.

She is that artist that is needed for the time.  The artist that is trendy and out there.  Her songs are not bad but are pop fluff.  She is as important as Cher and Madonna were before her for her time.  I do not think she will have the longevity or overall success the other two did, but she is what she is for this era.  It is funny a bunch of "quality" music fans of MMJ would be discussing GaGa ;D

I think she is a strangely unique individual,with wild imagination.  I rarely listen to her music, but she is talented at what she does.  I saw her performance on American Idol last night; which kinda pissed me off. She was wearing a big cross around her half naked body, as she danced sexually up on male dancer.   Madonna has done the same , idiots!

Wonderful, the way I feel!

I think she'll really one up madonna when she reveals that she's really a man.

That's pretty much the only way she could usurp Madonna as The Queen of Pop.

Regardless of whether she is talented or not, it is only her SECOND album.At least Madonna had about 4 or 5 before she hit the stratosphere of celebrity.

incorrect

Madonna hit the stratosphere in 1985 when she released Like a Virgin (her 2nd album). Use the logic of it being the pre-internet days and she was as big as you could get.

I mean, these days, if you YouTube yourself farting in a remotely funny way you can become a huge star.  ;)

You beat me to the punch my 1960s-born sibling (I believe we are roughly the same age?). She was big with her first album, but blew-up huge when Like a Virgin dropped.

1964 baby.

And I recall hating madonna with a passion in the 80's. I was much more full of false bravado back then (and a metal head!).
