As the genre struggles to find firm footing on charts outside of its own, R&B found a new found hero in Lady GaGa this year, who returned to the Urban roots previously touched upon on ‘The Fame‘ with her latest single ‘Do What U Want.’
On course to outperform its predecessor ‘Applause‘ in the US, the jam’s international success is to thank for the air of positivity currently surrounding its supporting LP ‘ARTPOP‘, which now sits at sales of 750,000 units worldwide.
Now peep GaGa explain the cut’s conception and undeniably R&B nature below!
Hit the 5.20 minute mark!

To bad this song isn’t r&b or about love. next
Girl please, R. Kelly is scrutinized in the public eye for having s** with an underage minor, a criminal offense. You are scrutinized for thinking every day is Halloween, which is just plain strange, so you are not that similar… And her statement at the end “People may never know who I am”… people do want to relate to you but can’t, and that’s why you aren’t selling as well and won’t. Truth.
Read ha down sis.
FLOP
It’s so sad that she seeks to empower women but works and admires a man who is part of the problem. What kind of pervert sleeps with a minor? And what kind of hypocrite says she wants to support the push for equality and women’s rights but think it’s ok to work with a man who used his influence to coerce a t*** into having s** with him.
It’s disgusting.
Gaga the HYPOCRITE!
R.Kelly? Scrutinized? Did you forget about what he did? Or do you not care because he’s famous. Ask yourself, would you be happy to even talk to your neighbor if you found out he had manipulated a teenager into having s** with him. Actions speak louder than words Gaga and as a straight man it makes me sick that you’d work with the kind of creep people try to protect their kids from.
Check you lipstick before you come and talk to me!
Naomi campbell is a legend
Naomi > all other black supermodels
The Face >
That shade was too thick lmao. Naomi is QUEEN!
I love this song!
@Brazilian Bey this post >>>>>>> *Holsters Blackberry and goes in for 2 cheek-kisses*
Man f*** R.Kelly’s perverted ass. I honestly hate that people try and act like he is a victim when he is the PREDATOR!
Gaga has always rubbed me the wrong way she’s a trashy gurl not surprised she’d work with someone as disgusting as R.Kelly
i hope the girl he r**** doesn’t see this interview.
I’m so mad I don’t even know what to type right now.
R.Kelly took advantage of that young girl Smh im disgusted right now. GaGa is trash.
Gaga is so oblivious to the real world she doesn’t know how stupid she sounds. Would she like him as much if the 14 or 15 year old he abused was someone she knew, or does she find it impossible to relate to something unless it’s happened to her.
Ironic that she was talking about men in the industry abusing the power with HW but then think its kosher to work with a f****** perv like RKelly who thinks its ok to pursue and convince young girls to have s** with them KNOWING how old they are and knowing they don’t have the power to protect themselves once they’re with him.
She should be ashamed of herself.
Man that n**** can go straight to hell.
GaGa people are truly over you.
Sad truth: She only worked with R.Kelly, a convicted s** offender that no one is checking for, because all other R&B guys of any relevancy (Usher, Miguel, etc.) know she’s trash and just wanted a black man on her song. Same reason she got Too $hort and Twista on “Jewels and Drugs”… she thought Too $hort was a little person and she was excited because that would put even more over-the-top exposure on her album, a black little person but she was disappointed when he showed up over 5 foot tall.
Bye Gaga….#Flop
Why are we shocked? She’s friends with Terry Richardson but neither she or Beyonce care about the sick things he does just so long as he gives them what they want. They have no real morals.
We cannot shy away from the fact that R.Kelly is a great RnB artist if not the king of RnB? Yes what he did was disgusting and not right but who are we to judge him and condemn him, we all have sins and we all have regrets… Gaga saw the potential and collaborated with him regardless of what he did and came up with a smasher. Stop the Drama and start the music
for a ciara fan to Belittle GAGA is funny bcoz gaga will never be as basic as ciara shes been around for only 5 years and a 5 grammie and numerous awards and ciara has been around the block for almost a decade woth 0 gramies and is now struggling to sell 150k with her latest project that has been out 4months ago . ARTPOP struggled but atleast she sold 750k in its 3rd week #TheStruggle.
Anyway i love cici and overdose is my s*** bit b****** u do not go for Gaga.

Lady Gaga’s second single from her third album:
Do What U Want (Feat. R. Kelly).
Madonna’s second single from her third album:
Papa Don’t Preach.
How iconic and unforgetable Lady Gaga’s songs are, oh yeah cuz everyone think the Born This Way and ARTPOP albums are ICONIC with IMMORTAL songs.

I’m waiting for Sam to post about how ARTPOP sales went up by 130% in the past week. I am here for the meltdowns the trolls will have 😀 😀 😀
By the way, I LOVE Do What U Want..
He did already.
@CAKE he alr did lmao and it had e best shade
Pretty much every male r&b artist after r.kelly , looks up to him. Who gives a f*** about his personal life, dudes and musical genius and if you don’t agree you know nothing about music. He did what he did and that’s never going to stop me from listening to his amazing catalogue of music- if it’s not his music then it’s truly NOT my business. Gaga (unlike majority of your favs) is a musician and I’m sure she grew up listening to some of his music and knows just what he means to r&b music unlike most of the 15 year olds posting on here.
Thankfully here we have another sane person. Thank you 🙂
The thing is this song is THE S***! I play it everyday since it debuted more than a month ago.
I don´t know what happened with R. Kelly (funny thing most of you probably don´t either). But how about some of you being Rihanna fans despite her several collabos with a man who always treats or treated women like s***, including some beating? hmm yeah I know. What a bunch of haters ready to vomit nonsense in this blog.
Reductive. #yawn
Bon jour!,
I want R. Kelly to take a p*** all over me
(:
SO R*PE KELLY WAS THE ONLY BLACK R&B SINGER DUMB ENOUGH TO MAKE A SONG WITH T***** DADDY.I CANT AT THE SPILLED TEA!! WHAT HAPPENED TO FARTFLOP SCANNING THE 1 MILLION MARK!!! LOL GRAPE CLOCKING THIS T*****!!
This song is more of a Rock style influenced by R&B… It’s great record that had to grow on me.
