Lady Gaga Reveals New Details About LG6, aka Her Next Album

Now that Lady Gaga‘s first single off her upcoming sixth album has been released, she is opening up about what fans can expect from her new music.

While Gaga has not yet announced the title of the upcoming album, which fans have lovingly referred to as LG6 for years, there are rumors that it could be called Chromatica.

Gaga just opened up about the upcoming album in an interview on New Music Daily with Zane Lowe on Apple Music.

“We are definitely dancing, I mean like, I think the best way to describe all of the things that you just said is that I put all my heart, all my pain, all my messages from the other realm that I hear of what they h- what they tell me to tell the world and I put it into music that I believe to be so fun and you know, energetically really pure, and I want people to dance and feel happy,” Gaga said about the upcoming album. “You know, someone asked me the other day what my goal was with this album and it actually sounds ridiculous when I say it out loud. But I go, I said, ‘I would like to put out music,’ (laughs), ‘That a big chunk of the world will hear, and it will become a part of their daily lives and make them happy every single day.’”

On making her new album and how you can reframe the way you view the world: “We made a lot of the record in my studio house. So I have a house where it’s-it’s Frank Zappa’s old studio, it’s a live room, uh, it’s a big studio, it’s beautiful. And I would be upstairs on the porch, outside the kitchen, and Bloodpop would come up and he’d go, ‘okay, come on, that’s enough, off the porch’, and I would cry and I would say, ‘I’m miserable, I’m sad, I’m depressed,’ and he’d go-he’d go, I know, that’s, and-and we’re gonna go make some music now. And then I’d go downstairs and I would write, you know, Stupid Love, or I’d write that lyric that I just told you to make another song, you know, it just, this album is such a display of not only how you can reframe the way that you view the world, but I promise, or, and I hope, that the love that was around me in the process of making this album is something that other people feel, that they know that artistically, like, you know how producers are, if one guy’s working on it, or one girl’s working on it, they don’t want anyone else to work on it, they don’t wanna share, they, everybody gets cocky, there was none of that. These records got passed around to so many different people, there were so many different iterations of these songs because we all wanted it to be perfect and literally nobody cared who put their fingerprints on it, as long as it was the dopest thing that we could give to the world and that it was meaningful, authentic, and completely me.”

On her process for making music: “Sometimes you have to move your body and your spirit and your soul that really even access what you’re actually feeling and I was feeling so down so many days when I was, you know, before I went into the studio to work, and then I would go in and I would just, I, I would sit there with BloodPop and go, ‘Okay, I’m gonna open the portal, I’m gonna listen, I’m gonna talk to all my fairies.’ (laughs) All the fairies that help me write (laughs) music and I’m gonna ask them what the world needs to hear. And then we would make records and it j- it turns out that they were happy and it, it was, I used to cry a lot in the studio because I, I would listen back to what I was singing and I would hear my voice and I would hear the music and it would be so joyful and I, and celebratory, and it, I would, e- essentially see the arc of my entire day.”

On how making the new album contrasts with making Joanne: “Well I-I think that it’s definitely that, but on Joanne, I was more in a space artistically of crafting something that, you know, conceptually all kind of went together, an album for my father, an album about the trauma of my family, an album about how we pass things on generationally to each other, you know, my relationship with men, it was like very specific, right? This was much more like, you know what, guys? It turns out, I just sobbed for three minutes and this is what came out, and this is what should be there. And it was so real and it was so, like, like, all my gears, all my musical bells, all my artistic thoughts, the way that I see music and experience music like a wall of sound, everything was just firing on all cylinders and it made me feel so happy because I thought to myself, wow, even when you feel six feet under, you can still fire on all cylinders.”
