The One - LADY GAGA

 The multi million selling first album
Since late 2008 I have been following the epic storm that is LADY GAGA, the controversial music genius has had quite the effect on the world. With 4 Number 1 singles in the UK, two number one albums, it would seem the only way is up for Lady. I think the thing that is key to her success is her fans or "little monsters", who she adores and appreciates more than any other artist I know of. Everything Lady G does, is for her monsters, which subsequently proves it is a good idea to express the love at every opportunity.

For all the people who are coming to release new material in the future, I think you can learn a lot from Lady GaGa, she has her own identity as well as great music, lyrics and charisma. I feel that whilst she is compared to some musical greats, she is her own persona and will be a huge name for many years to come, and its hard to believe that she has achieved this greatness at the tender age of 24!
The Album Chart Show Feb'09

I have been fortunate enough to see her at just about every stage of her descent on the charts, I first saw her in February 2009 at an Album chart show, where she came on first and performed all her greats in front of a TV audience. The second time I saw her was on the 14th July 2009 at Brixton Academy - again an awesome show. The best was seeing her headline Monster Ball world tour at London's O2 Arena in February 2010. The story detail invested into the show is just amazing proving that she is a force to be reckoned with.

Bad Romance has so far become one of the most viewed youtube videos to date, furthermore follow-up video Telephone which featured superstar Beyonce Knowles has also become a huge web phenomenon. The fight to release Alejandro as the third single proved successful becoming Lady Gaga' 7th consecutive top ten hit in the UK. 

I can only see bigger things for this rising queen of music, not only talented at writing music for other acts such as the Pussycat Dolls & Britney Spears, she also plays instruments and has a massive impact on her tour production even investing her own money into the project. I cannot wait for her to announce the name of her new album on New Years Eve 2010 via a tattoo on her body, which is just an amazing way to see out a great year for her, and open up the way for a new album and hopefully fantastic new video's and tours! Roll on 2011 for GAGA mania.
