Thread of the meaning and intention behind every Lady Gaga album and why she is such s genius
The Fame

How Gaga views the outside world. This is a society satire without people knowing. Songs about sex, porn, alcohol, partying, drugs and relationships. Gaga wanted to be famous since an early age and she would tell people she's a star, then she became the biggest one.
The Fame Monster

The dark side of fame and that outside world. 8 songs representing a different fear that haunts Gaga. Songs inspired by the fans and people she met on the road. Fear of love, sex, alcohol, men, truth, fame (suffocation, ego) and death (seen in paparazzi video).
Born This Way

What caused the fears from the outside world: being set aside, not belonging. That's how Gaga became that 'monster' and lived halway between fantasy and reality to escape. In this one she accepts it, marries her insecurities. Inspired by her fans and their stories.
ARTPOP

She lets that rebel out. She expresses all the fears and darkness that caused the outside world into art. She embraces being 'weird' and takes it to the max in creative form. Explores that fantasy world she escapes in to heal herself from the real one. Inspired by Warhol
Joanne

Who is Gaga when she's Stefani. If ARTPOP was the crazy side of the spectrum, this is the other pole. What's like reality for Gaga. She tells us she's struggling with many life issues. When she isn't creative, she's just her mother's daughter. Inspired by her family story
Chromatica

Healing. In this album Gaga tells why she struggles and what are they (ptsd, needing love, being a woman). She explains how she deals with them and how she feels. She says music healed her and it was inspired by how making this music pulled her out of her lowest time.
So basically throughout all her albums, Lady Gaga has told the ongoing story of her life. She wants to be famous, sees the dark side of fame, embraces the darkness & explores her weirdness. Tells us she struggles, why and how she deals with it. Everytime she goes a little deeper
Lady Gaga is a genius not only because she has been able to capture the madness of normal society but she gives the view of an outsider. She stands out 'cause she writes about all these issues that happen to everyone. She doesn't just write about love/relationships but about life
