Pop sensation Lady GaGa was recently interviewed by MTV News and took the opportunity to elaborate on her next studio album. The LP will serve as the follow-up to her widely successful ‘The Fame Monster’, which spawned the worldwide smash hit ‘Bad Romance’. Peep an excerpt from the interview below:
“Well, I’m going to write new music … that’s the beauty of writing your own music — you don’t have to rely on songwriters and producers to write hit songs for you,” she told MTV News. “So I’m going to write a new album and I’m going to have new ideas.”
“I find ‘The Fame Monster’ to be completely different than ‘The Fame’,” she added. “I’ve evolved, but artists should evolve. In the ’70s and the ’60s, artists evolved all the time — from album to album the music was changing, the feeling was changing, the artists seemed almost entirely different than who they were five or six years before.”
“Most certainly I have no f—ing clue what they’re going to be yet, because I’m just starting this tour, and I wrote ‘The Fame Monster’ during the last tour, so … I assume that it will inspire some kind of new sonic energy and lyrical style,” she explained. {Source}
Having witnessed many Pop acts experience incredible surges of success early in their careers and fade into obscurity with similar rapidity, I am sure many share my curiousity as to whether or not GaGa will enjoy a lengthy career. As observed over the last decade, popular music is generally characterised by nonsensical fads and trends. However, unlike many of her contemporaries who have already begun their descent from the top of the charts, GaGa is indeed a rare talent. In fact, some may go as far as to compare her rise to fame to Madonna’s massive success in the 1980’s. It seems that only time will tell if she has what it takes to survive the next decade.
