Lady Gaga’s Mayhem is out today, and the pop singer discusses how the chaos of her earlier work influenced this album, her relationship with the media, how she’s grown as an artist, her fan interactions and more!
What do you think of Mayhem? Let us know in the comments below!
Lady Gaga:To me, if you can repeat your fingerprints, they’re your fingerprints. I don’t want to drive anyone insane, but also, thank you so much. So, like I tried to have a lot of fun making this record. I always embark on a very like organic musical process, and the album always begins with the music. There have been times in my career where I had, like, an idea in terms of, like, how to conceptually approach a record. I would say that this album from start to finish, it was like pieces coming together, and I did not want to turn it into anything artificial. I really wanted to allow myself to, like, just follow the music. It started to slowly remind me of, like, my earlier work, the mayhem of my approach to pop music, which is, like, something that, like, is mine, that I feel proud of. I did want the chaos to end, and that’s why the record is the way that it is. It’s sort of like there being an end of insight to the chaos — I think gives it some hope.
Stephen Daw:What was it that was kind of fearful for you about doing that?
I think I felt a lot of pressure. Yeah. Felt pressure to, yeah, like, ever since my first album. You know, I did listen to what people would say, “Will she outdo herself? Can she top herself? She live up to it? You know, she needs to evolve,” or she, you know, “she hasn’t changed enough.” There was a lot of noise. I was young, too, of course, you know. And I’m 38 now, I’m a lot more confident in myself, but I think I found my confidence in this record.
