Lady GaGa On Singers & Rappers Who Don’t Write Their Own Songs: “Why Are They Artists?”

Published: Tuesday 23rd Dec 2014 by David

Months before the release of her new studio album, Lady GaGa has questioned the intentions of performers who don’t pen their own material this year, questioning the motivation behind their decision to pursue a career in music.

Want to know what she had to say about Pop’s current batch of “karaoke” singers?

Read below…

In a recent conversation with ‘Yahoo‘, the ‘Starstruck’ singer shared:

If you’re not gonna write your own music you better be able to blow. Because if you can’t blow, there’s no reason to do the job. But then you think about artists that can’t really sing, that have songs written for them, and it’s like, well why are they artists? Why are companies paying money to promote them? Because they’re beautiful and look good on camera and are kinda-sorta singing along? It’s like karaoke for pretty girls. When you’re a singer-songwriter it doesn’t really matter if you’re beautiful. What matters is that you create a relationship with your fans, and they care what you have to say.

 

Though set to ruffle a few “stan” feathers, GaGa‘s question is one worth asking?

If an entertainer isn’t exceptionally talented and can’t build their own bops, why choose to be an artist?

Ironically, the answer to her question can be found in the title of her debut album.

Do you agree?

    Girl shut up you’re a cracked out flop. Why are you an artist attention w****?

    • A-Keys December 23, 2014

      • FAF December 23, 2014

        She Better drag Rihanna

      • rosy December 23, 2014

        Gaga go sit somewhere with your crackhead looking self always sound like she on molly during her interviews Whitney did not write her own songs so what is this white trash trying to say b**** your flop ass could not sell so u go make music with the old people facility Tony Bennett to get a hit now your ass wanna act like u better than people she needs to start booking stage in the old folks home better yet tell your parents restaurant to clean out the cockroaches

      • AmbeRussell December 23, 2014

        Reading is truly fundamental, as you must only read the headline and not the actually quote where she states “if you’re not gon write your own music, u better be able to blow”. Ie Whitney, tony Braxton, Aretha, Celine, to name a few, were able to BLOW

      • BOOBIE December 23, 2014

        Katy might not sing all that well but writes her own songs and other people’s songs tho so I don’t think she’s talking about Katy

      • Um January 5, 2015

        Most songs Lady Gaga apparently doesn’t write alone

        lolz

    • Prismatic December 23, 2014

    • LogicalFan December 24, 2014

      LOL! I can tell that most of the people commenting on here are very NAIVE. just because someone in the industry says they co-writer doesn’t mean they wrote the song or help write the song. Record labels are always telling people this about their artist to make them look good. Beyonce, Katy Perry, Iggy Azalea, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, all none of them can write a whole song by themselves. They all use writers to help them write their ideas. Anyone can give an idea to a writer and make a song. A truth writer like Lady Gaga can write a song in minutes like she did with Born this Way. Lady Gaga is right. This music industry is filled with fake, non-talented pretty batches that can’t sing live nor write their own music.

      • nathan February 20, 2015

        Born this way was a straight up copy.

  4. 2 girls 1 cup December 23, 2014

    DEADDD she’s talking about Britney Rihanna and Katy Perry lmaoo and don’t come out at me talking about Christina is a flop yes she’s a flop but she’s extremely talented Co writes her music is always behind her every project and she’s no puppet anyways I see no lies on Gaga

    • blue December 23, 2014

      britney, katy and rihanna all write, do it cant be them.

    • rosy December 23, 2014

      She needs to call names so her ass will get dragged by the navy kitty Kats and everyone she trying to come for there is room for everybody in this industry I’m tired of these haters coming for other artist if people were not supportive of iggy Rihanna and Britney they would not be on top not everyone care for old white trash music like gaga

    • NENE December 23, 2014

      Beyonce you fool

      • NICKI WILL SLAY December 23, 2014

        Beyonce can sing. She can blow like Gaga was saying tho.

  5. GoodMusicLover December 23, 2014

    No lies detected. Anyone can sing a song, it takes true talent to also be able to write your own lyrics. And I love her for saying “karaoke for pretty girls.” Now that was a read

    • blue December 23, 2014

      no actually it takes a talented lyricist to write a song. And not anyone can sing as there are people who arent blessed with a singing voice.

      People dont get that not everyone is gifted the same talents, some have great voices but cant write (whitney houston, celine dion), some people are gifted with a way with words (ms warren) and some people can do it all (Mariah).

      • Rory December 23, 2014

        This is very true. Just because you can sing doesn’t mean you’re gifted with a great pen game, like the SONGWRITERS THAT GET PAYED to do that. And why is this such a problem? Whitney ain’t write s***, and no one EVER takes away her credibility as a remarkable talent

    • blue December 23, 2014

      no actually it takes a talented lyricist to write a song. And not anyone can sing as there are people who arent blessed with a singing voice.

      People dont get that not everyone is gifted the same talents, some have great voices but cant write (whitney houston, celine dion), some people are gifted with a way with words (ms warren) and some people can do it all (Mariah). Its about accepting your limitation and worke with what you got

    • Mark111 December 23, 2014

      Gags is not one of those artist.

    • Um January 5, 2015

      She writes like a schoolkid

      LOL

  6. A-Keys December 23, 2014

    Oop, Rihanna girl, she’s calling you out.

    • blue December 23, 2014

      rihanna has been listed as a co-writter since her debut, so people can stop with the she cant write bull crap.

      • JOHNVIDAL December 23, 2014

        Itñ
        ´s obvious she doesn´t qrite a damn thing, she gets her mention in some credits same way Beyonce does (you know what I mean 🙂 )

  7. blue December 23, 2014

    britney, katy and rihanna all write, do it cant be them.

  8. Mark111 December 23, 2014

    There are artist that can write great music, Gaga is not one of them. I’ll use her and Neyo for an example. They both can write hits, Neyo can write great songs. But there’s a limit to the average that they can go before just sounding the same time after time. Both already reached that limmit, I can tell a Neyo song a mile away. Gags songs are NOTHING to write home about.

    You have to add the point that there’s songwriters that can’t sing a note, but can write the bible. This is the business for them. As for recording artist, it comes down if you’re marketable or not. If it was just pretty faces gets the deal, then the whole model ide would be singers. No, we seen time and time again that a pretty face will help, but at the end you have to have IT. Rather it is singing your b*** off (Whitney), dancing your @ss off (Janet), or just knowing how to market yourself (Madonna). Gaga may be a balanced performer, but that’s not say all, be all. People like myself grab towards entertainers and performers. What do MJ, Janet, Aaliyah, Usher all have in commom? They all can dance and work a stage. I like Rihanna because she has the voice that can genre hop to whatever sound she wants to. I like Ak because she puts her all into her music, same with Mars. Gaga has a hipster/rock listener mind that thinks if an artist don’t write, then they’re not an artist. But art comes in so many forms, because I don’t care how a rocker can write, their music does NOTHING for me (unless you’re Brandon from Incubus, and his vocals draw me in). Never have there been an artist that got by with JUST a pretty face.

    • Chris December 23, 2014

      Blah blah blah, girl bye. Your fav is nothing but a model with a mic lol no talent detected any where. And when has slow motion Aaliyah ever worked a stage?

      • Mark111 December 23, 2014

        They both made a bigger impact in music than Gags ever will. Sorry that she went down along with the EDM movement.

      • Chris December 23, 2014

        Lol..that’s fine and dandy, but miss Gaga spoke nothing but the truth.

      • Mark111 December 23, 2014

        Mr. Gaga spoke from a bitter place. She knows her career has ended and the GP moved on. She’s acting like she have the writing skills of Mariah or Warren. Sorry that her gimmick no longer have a place in music.

      • Brian310 December 23, 2014

        Check her resume dumbass she was always known as a great performer

      • Chris December 23, 2014

        I’m not a Gaga fan, so I could care less, nonetheless, she spoke nothing but the truth.

        As for you Brian, Aaliyah is as much a great performer as Rihanna is a great singer, ok. Happy holiday you pressed bottom.

      • Brian310 December 23, 2014

        Lmao just because you say it doesn’t make it true, I rather listen to people who have been in the industry and know what their talking about then a pressed gay bottom n***a…ps Rihanna has been a good vocalist the past year so you just shaded yourself with that comparison either way Aaliyah wins lmao

      • Chris December 23, 2014

        Lol You sound like a damn fool, just stfu. Now go watch some of your girls old videos.

    • Paulo December 23, 2014

      Girl bye Ne-Yo well ran dry before GaGa turned big and she can write great songs. I wish she would write for other artists more her leftovers were the best thing about that flop JLo album

    • LogicalFan December 24, 2014

      LOL! I can tell that most of the people commenting on here are very NAIVE. just because someone in the industry says they co-driver doesn’t mean they wrote the song or help write the song. Record labels are always telling people this about their artist to make them look good. Beyonce, Katy Perry, Iggy Azalea, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, all none of them can write a whole song by themselves. They all use writers to help them write their ideas.

This music industry is filled with fake, non-talented pretty batches that can’t sing live nor write their own music.

    • Um January 5, 2015

      Madonna is a much better dancer than Janet with far better songs

      And how can one call Lady Gaga a rocker ? What the f*** lmao !

  9. Pat December 23, 2014

    Yet they still managed to maintain some sort of relevance. U can’t say the same for yourself gimmick! Its not their fault your team didn’t use the right formula this time around.

  10. Mark111 December 23, 2014

    This is also “I’m ugly and can’t go the s*** rout, even if I am n***” cry. Just know that you’re known for having a dress made of meat than your poor written pop trash of yesteryear.

    • Chris December 23, 2014

      LOL..looks like someone is Pissed that his favorite was called out.

      • Mark111 December 23, 2014

        Not at all. Someone is p1ssed because my fave is going on year 10, while Gags fizzled out at 4. #OhWell

      • Chris December 23, 2014

        Gaga did fizzle, because of those dumb as gimmicks, but let’s stay on topic though lol, Model with a mic, no..did she lie?

      • Mark111 December 23, 2014

        Sure Rihanna is a fashion icon. You guys calls her a model as if that’s a horrible thing. Modeling is a talent and something Gaga can’t do, because she’s ugly. Do you really think that Gags music is first in her artistry? She’s known for wearing crazy gear and looking dumb. It’s not Rihanna’s fault, it’s Miley and Katy that put the nail and dirt on Gags career.

    • Chris December 23, 2014

      But again, she spoke nothing but the truth “Karaoke for pretty girls” there we have it.

  11. Unbiased December 23, 2014

    I agree.
    You aren’t really ‘creating’ if you’re just singing mediocre over some beat that 20 other people wrote and produced.

  12. Unbiased December 23, 2014

    Most popstars are business brands,
    Not creative artists.

  13. Beysus December 23, 2014

    LOL another swipe at Iggy I imagine… But the real question is: How did Chartflop do???

    • BeyBeyKing December 23, 2014

      Girl have a seat chartflop sold over a million worldwide went platinum and number one in various countries and has certifications in various music markets not even the new girls such as Copy and Paste grande and Iggy can achieve such especially since their career is booming

      • Beysus December 23, 2014

        1 mill WW in a year… Yea ok…

      • Mark111 December 23, 2014

        lol, you compare her to the new girls in pop, but not her peers? (Katy). You knew better, lol. And ArtFlop is only 200K higher than the newbies.

  14. kingbeybitch December 23, 2014

    This post about to get messy affff

  15. kingbeybitch December 23, 2014

    Certain stans will be pissedddd lol

  16. blue December 23, 2014

    what gaga said for all of you who cant help but use whatever you can to shade other artists. is that when you call yourself a musician, you better be good at writing and singing, but if you cant write then you better be able to deliver the material others create for you, otherwise whats the point

  17. kingbeybitch December 23, 2014

    If you think she isn’t talking about certain “popular” then you’re delusional

    • kingbeybitch December 23, 2014

      *popular artists*

  18. CATFISH CAREY December 23, 2014

    SHE KINDA LOOKS LIKE MADONNA IN THAT PIC .

    • RICHIE_RICH December 23, 2014

      She sure does

  19. BLACKOUT TBH December 23, 2014

    No lies detected?!
    “When you’re a singer-songwriter it doesn’t really matter if you’re beautiful”
    Ok well, you ought to tell your plastic surgeon that Gaga cas last I checked your nose is half the size it was back when you and Lady Starlight were go-go dancing in the NYC club scene.
    Also, are we just gonna act like she didn’t just diss Britney who took a chance on her before she even had “Just Dance” out and who has continuously supported her flop, has-been, peaked-n-fell-off-in-a-span-of-5-years ass? Oh, ok then. Bye Guacamole Germapesta. You’re done.
    Have fun giving happy endings to an 80 year old for relevancy. I imagine the s** was like trying to fit a marshmallow through a keyhole. The things you do when nobody’s checking for you no more…

    • BeyBeyKing December 23, 2014

      How are Britney’s Vegas shows doing?

      • BLACKOUT TBH December 23, 2014

        Oh you mean the show that has already grossed over 20 million dollars for Planet Hollywood & is literally saving the previously ageing industry & clientelle of the Vegas pop shows? It’s doing well thank you.
        It returns this Saturday with a revised setlist & choreography as well as possible new ensembles by Marco Marco with a celebrity appearance by Iggy Azalea on New Year’s eve in preparation for Britney’s upcoming lead single off her 9th studio album featuring Iggy Azalea.
        Anything else?

      • BLACKOUT TBH December 23, 2014

        Your receipts are from RO?! The website notoriously known for spreading lies about every celebrity known to man? Funny how there is no photographic evidence of ANY of her supposedly half-empty shows isn’t it? They’ve even faked phonecalls with Britney impersonators in the past and uploaded the audio up on their site as an “exclusive” and claimed her boyfriend’s mother hated her even though just days before she was like “Happy birthday Britney – congrats on your lingerie line” on Twitter. That website is trash. You tried though.

      • BLACKOUT TBH December 23, 2014

        But if you wanna know numbers, the last leg of the residency (which ran from October 3rd to November 8th) – which is the time period RO is referring to – had 72% attendance. Last I checked, “half” was 50%.

  20. RECORD SALES > ALBUMS December 23, 2014

    Being an “artist” is part of a bigger cohesive creative process that some times includes producers, other singers, writers ,engineers, back up vocalists etc. Gaga shame on you for being so petty in your time on dim stardom .

    I cannot imagine her saying the same about an oscar winner that didnt write their lines or monologues in the movie. Or a director of a movie who didnt write the screen play …

    Gaga girl it takes a team and we all know your team at the moment needs a first round pick at the next draft .

    • BLACKOUT TBH December 23, 2014

      Preach! I hate how she acts like she’s this avant-garde, one of a kind, genius artiste who’s work is ground-breaking & revolutionary. She’s a popstar just as much as the next girl, and that’s not taking away from her talent but you read her interviews and it becomes apparent that she sees herself as a David Bowie or Bjork or MJ. It’s like – you’re not a visionary. You’re a fad. A fad that’s now dead & burried. Get over yourself.
      Her and Kanye ought to go off into the sunset together tbh.

    • ronnoc December 23, 2014

      Someone missed the point. She didn’t say you have to do everything from singing to producing to be considered an artist. Just be able to write, OR sing. Otherwise, why are you singing? Since you brought up acting, the equivalent would be her saying, why call yourself an actor if you don’t know how to act? Makes perfect sense to those of us who aren’t pressed

  21. Career Ender December 23, 2014

    CAN THIS FLOP PUKE BIATXH JUST DISAPPEAR TO NON EXISTANCE?!!!!!?!?!?!?!?

      Could your mother have just had an abortion so we wouldn’t have been burdened by your existence.

  22. Bey-Minaj December 23, 2014

    Smh this flop is bitter that artpoop flopped so hard that she had to cling to an old man for dear life just so she remains relevant

  23. sashay December 23, 2014

    So essentially, with this logic..Whitney has been reduced to a Karaoke singer.

    IGGY

  28. LB December 23, 2014

    I don’t understand what her beef is, songwriters need work too. Not everyone can be the extra ordinary Mariah Carey who is the only singer I know who can sing, write and produce amazing music.

    Some artists are good at certain things and are not good at other things, but that does not mean they do not contribute to other things. It’s just letting those with skills in that particular area do their job. This is why there are teams.

    • Mark111 December 23, 2014

      And people need to know that and get over the idea that an artist does all. A CEO doesn’t answer a phone, someone else on the team does. But he’s the face of the co. The music bizz is just that, a business. Why she acting like she engineer, produce, write, does her own make up, pick out her gear, manage her money, book shows, and all the rest all by herself? She don’t, no one does, it’s a team.

    • JOHNVIDAL December 23, 2014

      She didn´t say that, she said that if you don´t make music, at least you need to blow at what you do: singing or dancing that is. Comprehension is fundamental my friend.
      I agree with you on the extraordinaty Mariah carey though 🙂

  29. LB December 23, 2014

    It is not like Lady Gaga herself writes amazing music, her music is generic pop tart trash that is nothing without a REDONE Electro beat.

    What made Lady Gaga is not her songs in particular, they are generic contrived self centered trash. What made Lady Gaga is RedOne’s electro beats and without that production, she is nothing, BTW and AP proved this.

  30. LB December 23, 2014

    All this is just the ramblings of a bitter has been who’s seen artists she once thought she was superior too become her superiors.

    Last kicks of a dying has been, ramblings that should not be taken seriously.

  31. MariahIsMusic1 December 23, 2014

    Rihanna where you @ girl?

  32. TRUTH SERUM December 23, 2014

    Well Dam.n!!!! Don’t go in Gaga

  33. yasssssssssss B**** December 23, 2014

    don’t say that Gaga if that was the case us Songwriters wouldn’t have a job !

  34. MariahIsMusic1 December 23, 2014

    She’s a well balanced performer, she can sing, dance, write her music… She spoke nothing but the truth. If you can’t write your music Dance like crazy ala Janet, Ciara, Beyonce or really Blow Mariah, Whitney etc. Some of you stans will never get it because you stan for basic pop girls.

    • JOHNVIDAL December 23, 2014

      Exactly!

    • Mimi December 23, 2014

      ^^^ Yes fellow Lamb, 100% truth.

  35. TRUTH SERUM December 23, 2014

    For the record, Rhihanna can sing. She isn’t a vocal powerho

    • TRUTH SERUM December 23, 2014

      For the record, Rihanna can sing. She isn’t a vocal powerhouse but her tone is what makes her unique. A lot of what Gaga said is true but I wouldn’t necessarily allply it to Rhi or Katy.

  36. LB December 23, 2014

    LOL I don’t know why people are mentioning Rihanna when she has co-written on Talk That Talk and Rated R.

    Plus Rihanna has been Executive Producer on all her albums since GGGB, meaning she is the boss of the whole creative process.

    • Mimi December 23, 2014

      Keep telling yourself that.

  39. Mark111 December 23, 2014

    Here’s another one of Gaga’s classic writing that will stand by Mozart’s work.

    “Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh
    I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got
    Oh, oh, oh, oh, ohhhh, oh-oh-e-oh-oh-oh,
    I’ll get him hot, show him what I’ve got

    [Chorus:]
    Can’t read my,
    Can’t read my
    No he can’t read my poker face
    (she’s got me like nobody)
    Can’t read my
    Can’t read my
    No he can’t read my poker face
    (she’s got me like nobody)

    P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
    (Mum mum mum mah)
    P-p-p-poker face, p-p-poker face
    (Mum mum mum mah)”

  40. Rosie December 23, 2014

    But Gaga is a s***** writer a lot of her songs absolutely make no sense. Prism and 1989 have way better written songs than Artpop.

  44. LB December 23, 2014

    “I know, I know, I know, I know you want me
    You’re just a p** inside a human body
    Squealer, squealer, squealer, you’re so disgusting
    You’re just a p** inside…
    Do you? I know, I know, I know you want me

    Artpop the 5th. When will our fave?

    • LB December 23, 2014

      OOP, the second coming, when will our favs LMAO

  47. JOHNVIDAL December 23, 2014

    I totally agree with her.
    If you are not a songwriter who actually create music and art, you need to be an excepcional singer, you need to blow like she says. You need to be Whitney houston or Celine Dion (well, you don´t have to be as great but you know what i mean). If not, what´s the purpose?
    For example, why have they let Mylie Cyrus become famous or give her songs? She doesn´t write, and she can´t sing them. One exaple of what gaga is saying.

    That said, TGJ always looking for drama where there none lol They could have skipped a post like this easily 🙂

  48. LB December 23, 2014

        But my fav doesn’t claim to be an amazing songwriter so what’s your point?

        Those are actually lyrics Gags wrote and tries to come off as the second coming when she makes mediocre music.

    • December 23, 2014

      Okay you are right i keep forgetting that Rihslut makes music for fatherless bottoms that buys groceries with coupons.

      • LB December 23, 2014

        Well unlike Gaga, it has resulted into a 9 year career, so if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it.

      • Boom Clap (XCX) December 23, 2014

        Lmao isn’t Gaga the one always bringing up gays tho? She’s clearly the one who makes songs for fatherless suicidal bottoms.

  49. Queen Barb December 23, 2014

    Im sure Gaga is extremely JEALOUS of the likes of Katy and Rihanna slaying so hard with their limited talent.

  50. JOHNVIDAL December 23, 2014

    Some of you guys are really stupid. Lyrics from songs are not meant to be read, if that were the case 70% of lyrics written for songs would be laughable. A songwriter doesn´t mean you write the words, it´s about everything, melody and all. The concept overall.
    Lana is great, Gaga is great, Mariah is great, Alicia Keys is great. Each of them in their genre of music, they are real songwriters.

  52. Maroon 5 Stan December 23, 2014

    Does it matter? Songwriters are here for a reason. Gaga just comes off pressed she writes her own crap songs and no one cares anymore.

    Btw LB, Mark, and Rosie are too funny for posting her unbearable lyrics.

  53. Boom Clap (XCX) December 23, 2014

    Poor Gaga the world doesn’t give a fcuk about you or your terrible song writing skills anymore. Just look at G.U.Y. flopping harder than a Kelly Rowland single.

    • Bey-Minaj December 23, 2014

      Unlike Charli gaga’s albums can sell cant say the same about sucker or break the rules

    Ew at this tramp John comparing Gagas song writing to Mariah,Alicia keys and Lana sit down with that b.s. please the named up top make REAL MEANINGFULL MUSIC. They aren’t singing about getting applause from broke gay men or about pigs in labor like Gaga.

    • JOHNVIDAL December 24, 2014

      Gaga has songs with a lot of depth too. If you just want to focus on her dance music singles it is ok. Just know that you are kidding yourself. Like I said, each of them are real songwriters and are good at their GENRES.
      You know who is not a songwriter? Kelly Rowland, Rihanna, Beyonce, Miley Cyrus… 🙂

  63. Mrs.Carter December 23, 2014

    Wait Artpop sold less than Pink Friday Roman Reloaded? hahaha

  64. Dossome December 23, 2014

    If you can neither write,sing,compose,perform nor produce,why are you an artist?I don’t know why that’s so difficult to grasp for some people.She’s basically calling out people who’ve made and continue to make a living out of a profession they aren’t qualified for

    • umm December 23, 2014

      They don’t get why some of us come to her defense on this. I’m not a gaga fan haven’t bought an album but I have heard a lot of her songs and have the artistic intelligence to understand the things she writes. Just cause I say “rocket number nine take off to the planet (Venus)” doesn’t mean I’m talking about a planet. Its a reference for s** rocket #9 (d**k) Venus(too obvious). The way she phrases things put her on a higher level than Katy Perry.

  65. Jewel December 23, 2014

    That is the truth. And only stans of people who know their fave fits into that category will try and make excuses against it. We all know who she IS and IS NOT throwing shade at. The word ‘artist’ is used too loosely these days. Over half the pop stars are nothing more than that. STARS. Not artists.

  66. S****** Blonde December 23, 2014

    Anyone can write songs, the thing is, a real songwriter make timeless songs. Lennon-McCartney partnership gave us what is considered to be the best music of the past millennium. There are many artist who write, they just let professionals do the job, Gaga should value this option, besides, what is she’s bragging about when she is just a co-writer of most of her songs, she sounds arrogant, bitter and pressed, as always. Never in my life have seen an artist which such a high level of estimation on itself.

    • Polish ambassador December 23, 2014

    Gaga is very talented, but I think it’s ironic that ever since her album flopped, she’s been saying side remarks shading other female artists. She never spoke like this while she was “on top”

    • BOOBIE December 23, 2014

      Because she didn’t HAVE to! When you’re on top you don’t have to acknowledge anything other than your success. Now that’s she’s had her own failures, she’s had time to sit back and look at the state of the music industry and form a very honest opinion.

  69. DanYiel Teflon December 23, 2014

    Did GaGa Lie? I see NO LIES

  70. BOOBIE December 23, 2014

    *looks at Iggy Azalea and Rihanna*

  71. Jason December 23, 2014

    Ok Gag why don’t you talk about yourself??The gimmicks, the plagiarism, the samples and stealing creative ideas from other artists. The key to being a successful artist is having originality.Something you lack. Hypocrite!! I can’t take her serious.

  72. xedos December 23, 2014

    Beyonce actually has a substantial amount of singing AND dancing talent. At the end of the day, she does her f****** JOB. That’s sing, dance and be the most COMMERCIAL VIABLE ENTERTAINER OF OUR TIME. So sit.

  74. Navy Nick December 23, 2014

    I love and respec Gaga, but do not necessarily 100% agree…. YES THERE ARE SOME LAME PEOPLE OUT WHO MAKING IT, with less talent than my pinky, but I’m not hating (do U), but back in the day it was very open to songwriters who loved for people to sing their songs because some just brought life to the words., so it was actually more common. Those people could Sang tho!!!!! So I agree to an extent, some people write good s*** that needs to be heard and if they can’t sing then yes give it to someone who can!!!!

  75. I STAN(D) FOR TALENT December 23, 2014

    LMAO!!!! Drag ’em. This white trash is telling the truth tbh. People like Thirsty Thiefoncé are just puppets who make money for record execs. She has absolutely no artistic talent.

    • Kyle December 23, 2014

      No shes not talking about Beyonce babe. Beyonce can back it up, which is what shes is saying. Beyonce is known as an amazing performer who can do it all, Whitney the greatest singer of all time. People like Rihanna cannot. What is she amazing at besides looking good?

    • Tyler December 23, 2014

      Nah, Beyonce can actually sing and dance her ass off for hours on in.
      Your girl Rihanna on the other hand, is the one who sounds like a cat being thrown off of a balcony. So that unnecessary shade you’re throwing at Beyonce just sounds dumb as f*** lmao

  76. Kyle December 23, 2014

    I see no lies. Navy can stay mad about it.

  77. Kyle December 23, 2014

    I swear you people have difficulty reading. Shes not saying you have to be a songwriter to be an artist. Shes saying if you don’t write, you have to be able to back up you’re flare in other significant ways besides image and persona (which have nothing to do with musicality).

  78. HOTSTUFF December 23, 2014

    And for the haters let us not pretend like RIHSUS didnt co wrote RATED R. Not to mention many other songs on her other albums….FLOGA needs to focus on her FLOPPING carreer and stop trying to be a critic or smt lmfao smfh at this bitter flopping tranni trying to make the most outtta her 3min of fame remaining.

  80. Special Delivery December 23, 2014

    BAHAHAHA shade the basic broads (Rihanna, Katy, Britney etc). Shes clearly a bitter bittch vying for some attention right now because she flopped so bad now shes focusing on ‘artistry’ cos she cant cling to stats anymore. But I LIVE for the shayyde! She told NO LIES. Lets looks at it this way. What would Rihanna be if she was ugly or fat like Adele? Britney of she wasnt a cute blonde bomshell? NOTHING. We all if Xtina, Beyonce, Alicia etc were born ugly, they would still be recognized for something respectful at at least (singing, performing, playing an instrument etc). Not just looking good on a magazine spread and yodeling over catchy songs.

  81. Paulo December 23, 2014

    Now I KNOW there ain’t no Lana stans with her overly repeated asinine self hating cliche key missing lyrics coming for Gaga. LMAO. So delusional…

  82. LTM December 23, 2014

    Katy writes ALL of her music and even wrote for artist before she blew up with I Kissed A Girl so please have a seat. Hence why everyone fights over her left over tracks.

  83. ny007ny December 23, 2014

    Everything she said is true. Today its all about these pre packaged , autotuned , fake no talent , pretend pop princesses. She is 100% correct in what she said.

    Lady Gaga who???
    girl , she so quick to judge.
    let me tell you a fact my girl Adele is selling every week much more THAN lady gaga from album that come out 3 years ago.
    she boring, now , lady gaga. I DON’T FEEL nothing FROM HER SONGS.

  85. Stephy December 23, 2014

    Songwriters do make all the money tho… One of my favs Writes, Produces & Sings. She wrote & produced 2 albums that went on to sell over 20+ million copies. Also, a song that will outlast ALL your favs entire careers.

  86. RowlandStone December 24, 2014

    Nothing but the Truth .

  87. B**** I Can’t Even Spell Welfare December 24, 2014

    I know it’s sad day for those who stan for the least talented people, but it is what it is.

    People get mad at Gaga. Why? She spoke nothing but the truth. You can always call her “jealous” or a “flop” and continue to stan for the artist that you love. The one who is a bad singer and who can’t write lyrics. Continue to love her & him. You can still, at least, still brag about how they “slay” the singles chart when they’re done.

    Gaga is respected by actual artists. The legend Sting (of the Police) was very moved by her performance for him. Like it or not, Gaga is better than most of her peers. The lack of sales for Artpop has done nothing to diminish her status amongst those who actually count in the music industry. Sorry. The “fans” thought “The Fame” was great but people who actually understood music proved that “Heavy Metal Lover” was better than her entire “The Fame” album.

    Thank goodness Gaga knows that she is better than that very limiting, general public bad taste album. She moved on.

    This is precisely why she “lost” the supposed fans from the beginning. LOL! She lost them because they are the equivalent to Miley Cyrus and Iggy fans-dumb. Gaga stop serving dumb so the dumb left. Good for her.

    Give me more Heavy Metal Lover. Give Me more Bloody Mary. Give me more Judas. Give me more Aura.

    • JOHNVIDAL December 24, 2014

      Yaaas b****! Everything that has come after The Fame is clearly better. That´s why I understood after that era that she is a real artist and also a real singer. She has evolved so much in just 3 albums. Of course there are people who like it simple and still need to stay in The Fame and not adknowledge anything else.

  88. LogicalFan December 24, 2014

Record labels are always telling people this about their artist to make them look good. Beyonce, Katy Perry, Iggy Azalea, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, all none of them can write a whole song by themselves. They all use writers to help them write their ideas. Anyone can give an idea to a writer and make a song. A truth writer like Lady Gaga can write a song in minutes like she did with Born this Way. Lady Gaga is right. This music industry is filled with fake, non-talented pretty batches that can’t sing live nor write their own music.

  91. Erudite February 20, 2015

    This is a well written article; I agree with Gaga, if you lack the ability to sing and the cogitation to create lyrics, you’re a model, not an artist. I wish I could decipher other sentiments from these comments, but a majority are written in the most botched ebonics and cracked english I’ve ever read. I wonder if the same circumstantial logic applies in these comments? You should be able to express concept and reason with others, otherwise you have no beneficial perspective. The lack of those characteristics devalue your “opinion” to null.
