I wouldn't go so far to say I prefer Artpop over The Fame but I enjoy them in different ways and I understand the intent behind Artpop and see it more than her just "trying too hard" like people bash her for.

Fame, fortune, power, titties. People say these are the most crucial things in life, but you can have a pocket full o' gold and it doesn't mean sh*t if you don't have someone to share that gold with. Seems simple. Yet it's an important lesson to learn. Even lone wolves run in packs sometimes.

I'm the same with both of those albums, but I feel like Artpop would have been more enjoyable if she hadn't hyped it up so much. It's still good, but my expectations were let down a lot after first listening to it.

The same thing happened with Born This Way. She kept calling it the greatest album of the century (even though it was only 2011), and it was a severe disappointment. I've grown to like it, but that initial hype killed the fun for me.

For her next album, if she quits the pretentious attitude, more people might appreciate it for what it is instead of expecting the "greatest album of the decade/century/millennium."
