Gaga’s music is aimed at the phenomenon of the masses, is industrially produced and ultimately has to be described as the cult of the banal.

Her album Born This Way is a narcissistic exercise in self- absorption that never attempts to answer the core question elicited by the title as to what it really means to be authentically human.
