But, the live-performance of Gaga is way better. Her singing is pitch-perfect, she sings live and her dancing is fantastic. The singing part of Madonna isn't as good live always.

She actually manages to sing live and dance. It takes a lot of energy and raw talent to be able to perform live in her concert. I love her ability to sing, play piano, dance, get the crowd pumped up and of course her amazing outfit changes. Doing that for 2-3 hours must take so much effort!

The problem with Gaga is, she really isn't "pop star quality" but she tries to be by "trying to hard" with the costumes, antics etc. Ive seen clips of her pre- Lady Gaga superstar status that actually shocked me. If she sat behind the piano and left the theatrics to Madonna I might actually would like her.

Madonna can do those things because she has been doing it for over 30 years and she is better at it. She is more creative and artistic.

Gaga should just concentrate on her music instead of focusing on how to get attention.

Madonna in her prime was 10x the performer Gaga is. Madonna may not have much raw talent but she knows how to entertain and to put on a show. Gaga just tries to hard, she is very contrived.

You actually liking her and the masses liking her are two completely different things. She wouldn't have went anywhere if she stuck to that same image of just sitting behind the piano doing nothing. She is far too creative to waste it all just stuck behind a piano.

You forget that Gaga is still fairly new. This would sound the same if you were talking about Madonna when she just started out. Of course she doesn't have 30 years under the belt of doing theatrics. I don't even get this statement.


Gaga entertains way better than Madonna but that's just my opinion. Just like you think Gaga is a try hard and contrived.

Where did I mention anything about the masses? I said if she concentrated more on her music instead of extra stuff for attention I might would like her because she is talented but she wastes it on gimmick material and gimmick antics for attention.

She wants to be a pop star which is why she reverts to gimmick antics for attention. Madonna has already done what Gaga is desperately trying to do and she has done it way better.

Wearing meat outfits and doing Euro dance music is not THAT creative.


I think she tries to be pretentious but her music does not reflect that.


The point is Gaga is just copying Madonna.

She is not doing anything creative or innovative.

She is not an original artist which was my point.

This has nothing to do with being new. Janelle Monae is new but she is far more creative and artistic than Lady Gaga. So this has nothing to do with being "new"



I am not a huge Madonna fan but I like a few of her albums and she definitly was artistic and entertaining in her prime. The fact that Gaga is constantly compared to Madonna is really comical because she is no where near as artistic and entertaining than her but different strokes for different folks.

Dont see how you can find her more entertaining than Madonna when she basically is copying Madonna's entire career.

Every time you talk about GaGa not being creative. I want to just scream hater in your face. You don't think she is creative and that's fine because it is justsubjective but to put Madonna on some pedastill like she is way more creative than GaGa is just silly imo.

lol

So I am a hater just because in my opinion Lady Gaga is not creative?

I am not calling you a hater because you find Gaga to be more creative than Madonna so why are you calling me a hater for my opinion?


For the record, I am not placing Madonna on a pedestal lol. I am not her biggest fan, I actually think she is quite overrated and has limited talent. However, she has created some creative output with her albums and performances.

If we were comparing Madonna to lets say... someone like David Bowie my opinion of course would be different but your comparison was between her and Lady Gaga and between her and Lady Gaga, Madonna has produced more artistic output.

I think albums like Erotica and Ray of Light are far more creative than anything Lady Gaga has ever done. I think the Girlie Show tour is far more entertaining than any Gaga performance.

I wish Gaga would stop trying to do things for attention and focus more on creating artistic music because she has the talent. When you have talent you shouldn't have to do the things she chooses to do for attention. Your music should have peoples attention not gimmicks.

djchameleon

Erotica is Madonna's fifth album and Ray of Light is her seventh album. Gaga has only put out three albums so far.

It doesn't matter.

The point is Madonna has produced creative output and Gaga is not worthy to be compared to Madonna.

I am suppose to wait around for Gaga to produce a creative album?

I am not going to wait around for her to be creative because I do not depend on her for music but thats just me...

If you are creative you are going to produce creative music whether it is your first album, fifth album or third album.

Even some of Madonnas earlier classics like Holiday, Papa Dont Preach that were off her first three albums are more iconic and quality then anything Gaga has produced.
