She’s an Artist

This past year has been epic for Lady Gaga. To some, she’s the manifestation of pop music and to others, she’s a raunchier version of Britney Spears. I had to admit when i was first introduced to Lady Gaga’s music I was hardly mind boggled but the more and more i researched her, the more and more i began to respect what she was doing. First, she hired a team of young artists and designers ( The Haus of Gaga) to design and build costumes, stage props and sets for each performance. She treats each performance as an installation. While incorporating pop music into what she’s doing many devalue all of her efforts to keep things fresh because pop music is not underground. But i respect Lady Gaga for not apologizing for the manner in which she’s achieved fame. And I continue to get my mind blown by her performances and stage ensembles. She pays homage to what some people believe are some of the most revolutionary musicians to date (i.e David Bowie, Queen, and Grace Jones)
