Did Lady Gaga's ARTPOP Flop?

Lady Gaga's ARTPOP didn't meet expectations.

Besides the big promotion and Gaga twittering like crazy, the CD will only hit around 260,000 copies. That's over 75% less than "Born This Way", which sold 1.1 million copies in its first week.

And the promo campaign took a hit too. Interscope Records spent $25 million to promote the CD. That's a lot dough, yo. Her sales also fall short from the other girls on the block. Miley Cyrus’ “Bangerz” hit 270,000 and Katy Perry’s “Prism” debuted with 286,000 first-week sales.

So is this considered a flop? Well, yes and no. She on par with the latest IT girls, but it's a far cry from 1.1 million. Grated those sales were boosted from the Amazon .99 cent gimmick, but still, the numbers don't lie. I guess we will see if this is a trend once Beyonce release her next CD.

My Review: Lady Gaga's ARTPOP

I just listened to ARTPOP, Lady Gaga's latest release. There are 15 songs, which are very interesting and yet, all the same.

So, I thought I'd give a vague review.

• A lot of the songs creative and interesting to listen to.
• However, all of them sound like you are trapped in a Gay Arcade backroom.
• Sexxx Dreams is the best song on the CD.
• Swine was too much. It was all sugar and no Kool-Aid.
• Some of the songs were waaay over-produced, when I think of ARTPOP I think of simple, creative beats and lyrics, not Mad Max Machine sex.
• Fashion sounds a bonus track from the Fame album.
• G.U.Y. was a cute song.
• The overall theme of the CD was too gay anthem-ish. I was hoping she would mix it up a bit.
•  Donatella could've been left on the chopping block.
• If she was going to make an epic album, she should've followed the real ARTPOP album, Purple Rain. That's ARTPOP!
• In fact, I wish she worked with Prince on this CD.
• It's too electronic, tone it down a notch.
• Dope is a good song.
• I needed heart in this CD, I didn't really get it from most of the songs.

In all, it's a decent CD. I wouldn't buy the whole thing, but a couple of songs are enough.
