Iām becoming a Lady Gaga fanā¦
DUN DUN DUUUUUUUNNNN!!!
āThe Fameā is Lady Gagaās debut album and, for a debut album- fuck it- for an album in GENERAL, itās fucking great. Being a pop album in 2008, thereās gonna be synths fatter than Nikocado Avocado and I love it every single time they pop up. Does that mean the album aged a bit? Yeah, of course. The amount of autotune on Gagaās voice sometimes makes it sound a bit weird because⦠you can already sing. Why do you need it? Itās not ALL OVER the album and itās not that much of a problem, itās just weird to me. Of course, there are times where itās done purposefully like the track āStarstruckā which features Flo Rida and Space Cowboy. Aside from that, every song here is fucking amazing, and even when the album dips in quality, worst case scenario is the track score going from a 10 to an 8, which is still amazing how the lowest score I gave ANY song on this album was an 8.1/10.0. Overall, The Fame, while a bit outdated, although oddly nostalgic in terms of sound, still is one of the best albums of itās time. 8.75 out of 10. Canāt believe that the best thing that Iāve listened to this year didnāt even come out this year.
SCORE: 8.75/10.0
