And yes I believe Gaga will be relevant in 30 years time. She was the first person to get a billion views on YouTube and she is or is one of the most downloaded artists of all time - so that alone will keep her remembered.
Also BTW is going to be some of her best work ever. With songs like Edge of Glory (a massive power ballad with club beats) and Hair (a RedOne produced inspirational song) not to mention a host of other songs, I think she's gonna be here for a long while.
Btw, I enjoy Madonna's work as well if you're thinking I'm a hater.  |
In 2008 when Hard Candy was released she was going through a bad time with her divorce so her heart wasn't full on with her album.
I can imagine if YouTube and Music Downloads were avalible in the 80's Madonna would have the same amount as Gaga has now - That is just a cultral achivement that is due to media over time.
Lady Gaga DOES NOT need dance tracks for her next album, In Madonna's few years of stardom she released songs in Pop, Dance , Rock (Burnin' Up, Gambler) stand alone ballads (Crazy For You) which I have let so see Gaga try. Power ballads are just 'current' and are the SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE IS DOING. Working with RedOne is no different to any other artist at the moment - NOT UNIQUE AT ALL!
