Lady Gaga teases “chaotic” and “genre-bending” new album: “It’s very fun”

Lady Gaga has shared more teasers about her upcoming album, describing it as “chaotic”, “genre-bending” and “very fun”.The singer shared the news of her upcoming seventh album last month when she dropped the electro-pop song ‘Disease’ as the lead single.

So far, little is known about the forthcoming record – which is going by ‘LG7’ for now – although it is expected to arrive in February 2025.As well as sharing the eerie music video for the new track, Gaga also opened up about the new song on social media, saying it ran parallel to “the relationship I have with my own inner demons”.“It’s never been easy for me to face how I get seduced by chaos and turmoil,” she wrote. “‘Disease’ is about facing that fear, facing myself and my inner darkness, and realising that sometimes I can’t win or escape the parts of myself that scare me.

That I can try and run from them but they are still part of me and I can run and run but eventually I’ll meet that part of myself again, even if only for a moment.”Now, the singer, songwriter and actor has shed light on what fans can expect from ‘LG7’ in a new interview, and revealed that the album as a whole takes on a more “chaotic” vibe.“The album is chaotic from a genre perspective—it is genre-bending, and I think in that way is a deeply personal look into my mind as a producer and the way I think about music,” she told Vogue. “When I write and produce and sing songs, I am always drawing upon my knowledge of the history of music, and so many artists and producers that came before me.

In that way, this album is a celebration of a lot of the music that made me who I am, because when I returned to a darker pop style of pop, all my early experiences with music came out.”She continued, adding that.
