In a new interview with Billboard, Lady Gaga shares the process of making her latest studio album "MAYHEM," her connection with Little Monsters and the success of "Die With A Smile."
Talking about the weight of expectations, Gaga said:
“Ever since my first album, I listened to what people would say. ‘Will she outdo herself? Can she top herself? Can she live up to this? She needs to evolve; she hasn’t changed enough.’ There was a lot of noise.”
Speaking about co-executive producer Andrew Watt and collaborators like Cirkut and Gesaffelstein, she added:
“I think what I look for in collaborators are people who will uplift me as a woman in the studio and follow my vision. I tried, musically, to work with people with whom I could push myself—so that it wouldn’t be exactly what you’ve heard from me before, but there is the DNA of my approach to pop music.”
