BBC Radio 1 Newsbeat got a bit of airtime with Lady Gaga while backstage at her recent London 02 Arena gigs, and the Santa-hating singer gave a few details about her upcoming album Born This Way and its lead single. Get the latest scoop on Gaga’s third release after the jump.
“Well, the new single is going to come out sometime in February, and shortly after that I’ll release the album,” Gaga told Newsbeat’s Greg Cochrane. “It’s finished and all. I’m just fine-tuning everything. It’s kind of like the post-operative stage of the album. I’ve already done the full heart surgery. I’m just sewing myself back up again.”
When asked how the album is different from her previous release The Fame Monster (which is up for Album Of The Year and Best Pop Vocal Album Grammys), Gaga said, “I think that lyrically it’s more poetic. It’s, in a very strange way, the marriage of electronic music with these sort of major, epic—I dare to even say metal, rock ‘n’ roll, pop, anthemic style—melodies with really, really sledge-hammering dance beats. It’s definitely the most innovative of all the music I’ve done so far.”
She wrapped up her short interview by stating that “most importantly, [Born This Way] was really written by the fans. I mean, they really wrote the music for me because every night they’re funneling so much into me. So I wrote it for them. Born This Way is all about little monsters and me, Mother Monster.”
Written by the fans, eh? That’s a lot of royalties to pay out, LG. What do you say, little monsters—does Lady Gaga’s incite to her new album have you excited for its release?





















Crap music again, I’m sure.
Glad to people taking music and expression seriously lately. Diddy-Dirty Money’s Last Train to Paris gonna push hip hop to get better and Gaga is doing that for pop…2011 is looking like a good year…Check out DDM’s album here http://diddy.it/i7he4k Might be album of the year..
I’m sure you would know, as an expert in all things crappy.
LOL bitches hate lady gaga and she only makes good music and it´s a nice person..
Pretty Exited with “BTW”
STOP THE MADNESS ALREADY! lady caca sucks! she is just a rip-off of madonna and ace of base and a dirty horse. music used to be about exactly that….THE MUSIC! now you just act a fool, wear some dumb outfit and thankz to TMZ you can achieve fame and fortune. how sad. LADY GAGA IS A HORSE FACE HACK! http://www.youtube.com/user/BaddBoyBlanco
Her album will be the best album ever made. Better than David Bowie, Grace Jones and Bjork COMBINED. You all are just haters. Get used to it. She is the new face of the greatest innovation in rock music EVER. I love you Mommy, you are so dear to me!!!!!!!!!!! I have new thoughts because of you!!!!! Little Monsters for life! She cares about her fans so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE HER, would DO ANYTHING for her. Don’t hate because you will never have her money. You are all pathetic. Idiots.
Better than Bjork? No way.
It seems that it’s not possible for anyone to take a moderate opinion when reading about Lady Gaga, LOL.
I think her music will be good. Lady Gaga releases good music.
However, as far as if it will fit the epic description that Lady Gaga stated, I don’t know.
She sucks! she thinks because she wears weird and stupid things she’s innovator lol IM WEARING A TV, I’M INNOVATOR -.-
OMG I cannot wait for “Born this Way” to come out!!!!! I love Lady Gaga and ALL of the music she has made so far. Those who talks sh**, are just sad jealous ordinary people…sucks for you.
Well if its for us, give it out for free bitch!
of all the comments of Gaga haters, yours is the most stupid.
Rip-off of Madonna? Hello! Madonna has been an influence on her, Gaga always admitted .
Gaga has influences like all the artists in the music industry (just like Madonna has)!!
If you say caca or horse face, you don’t going to make lower the talent & power of this women, on the contrary, you make her more stronger. ;)
have you listened to the album????
I love lady gaga. I look at it like this. Michael Jackson was the greatest and with his Passing comes Lady Gaga the new face of Pop Culture music. Watch out Thriller, Born This Way is Coming by Storm
Lady Gaga is the best pop star she is a awsome pop queen she should have a lot of awards it is right for her to be the woman of the year.
I think it will be good but not epic and certainly not remembered in 5 years.
TO KIKI:
“the new face of the greatest innovation in rock music EVER”?
*** Unlikely! If anything, her music is an amalgamation (look the word up, bitch) of already existing musical genres: pop, dance, electro…
