Mayhem! There’s also a nod to Yaz in a song. Can you guess which one? I’m beginning to think each song has a little tribute sample to one of her idols. Going back through the whole thing to see what else I can pick up!
I’ll have to listen to it more. But it’s up there. There is one way where I think she may have let her little monsters down. But I’m withholding that statement until I am fully acquainted with the entire album.
It was a fascinating first couple of listens for me … on the one hand, I like how blissfully it returns to the sleaze-pop Gaga era, which I adore. Bad Romance, etc. etc. However, there’s also a not-insignificant part of me that thinks it’s all shameless fan service in the name of getting her name back in the public’s good graces after the ups and downs of her recent movie career.
