Unless you lived under a rock in 2009, you have heard of Lady Gaga. She is fresh, original and unapologetic about who she is. Love her or hate her, it is undeniable that she has made a name for herself in the pop music scene. The debut album, ‘The Fame’ charted 4 #1 singles, a Billboard record. To date, she has sold over 8 million albums and 35 million singles worldwide. Her ‘Bad Romance’ music video has over 83 million views on YouTube.
So what makes her music worth having? Simple. It’s pure pop magic. From the thumping baselines to the synths to the rich vocals, her album ‘The Fame’ and her follow-up EP ‘The Fame Monster’ will leave you ready to let loose and dance (and isn’t that what good pop music does?). And no matter how much you fight it, you will find yourself humming her melodies randomly throughout the day. Another great thing about her is that she has paid her dues. She worked her way into the industry- nothing was handed to her. No casting calls for a blonde starlet, no famous family, no reality show - she is the real deal. So if you haven’t gotten aboard the Lady Gaga train yet, consider buying a first class ticket….you’ll be amazed at where the tracks will lead you.
