‘Born This Way’ Goes Number One on SPIN.com


From winning the Best Album of 2011 from PopJustice yesterday, the latest album ‘Born This Way’ has once again been crowned Best Pop Album of 2011 by SPIN.com. The category included 20 albums from the past year including artists such as Jessie J, Beyoncé and Adele. Here’s what SPIN.com had to say about the winning album:

  • The year’s biggest pop album made no effort to obscure its Reagan-era inspirations: Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, that scene in Footloose where Kevin Bacon plays chicken with a tractor. But what’s even more retro is Lady Gaga’s earnestness as she pursues her social-equality agenda. Beneath the hair and makeup and arena-razing disco-metal grooves, Born This Way delivers a message that old glamazon Pete Seeger could dig: She thinks pop can still move policy, and she might be right.
This year has been a massive achievement for Gaga and ‘Born This Way’, clocking a breaking number of awards from being the Best Album, and also for the success of her latest singles which are from ‘Born This Way’, including The Edge of Glory, Judas, Born This Way and Marry The Night. With all the greatest achievements in hand, we will be posting a special post near the end of the year to commemorate the success 2011 has been for Lady Gaga and everything that has happened.

Make sure you purchase Gaga’s latest single, Marry the Night on iTunes and Amazon and help it rise in the charts.

PopJustice Named ‘Born This Way’ Best Album of 2011


Gaga’s latest and newest album, ‘Born This Way’ has been named the Best Album of 2011 by PopJustice. The album ranked #1 out of the 33 albums that were on the list. Other big names included Rihanna #8, Adele #13 and David Guetta #33. PopJustice commented on the album saying:

  • As an album, ‘Born This Way’ was the sound of someone trying to force a massive hat into a tiny car. It is a sprawling, ambitious album that shouted to be heard when everyone was already listening, but no other album in 2011 tried quite this hard to be amazing, and no other album succeeded in as many ways.
They further added, ‘Born This Way’ is album of the year for one simple reason: it has more great stuff in it than any other album by any other artist in 2011. More bangs, more crashes, more mariachi band, more unicorns, more choirs, more “put your hands on me, John F Kennedy”, more hair, more filth, more fire, more sax, more sex, more crap pretend German, more “with you, with you, with you, with you, with you”.

From Born This Way to Marry the Night, The Edge of Glory to Judas, Popjustice seemed to love everything that was right and wrong about Gaga’s album.

And remember, on Christmas Day, Gaga releases a new ‘unreleased’ song from her latest album ‘Born This Way’, and on December 31, Gaga will be performing at ‘Dick Clark’s New Years Rockin’ Eve’ for New Years Eve!
