Lady Gaga stunned everyone with her fantastic comeback single 'Stupid Love', followed by her epic collab with Ariana Grande, 'Rain On Me', both of which we're playing on Northsound 1. Now, after a short delay due to the Coronavirus pandemic, her first album in FOUR years 'Chromatica' has been released.
The album features 16 songs on the standard edition, including collabs with Ariana Grande, Elton John and BlackPink.
The songs have all been written by Lady Gaga with many also co-written by producer BloodPop, as well as two members of Swedish House Mafia, Axwell and Sebastian Ingrosso.
The singer has also been sharing some song clips on her socials, including her song '911'. In the video uploaded to Instagram, she can be seen dancing in front of a foil balloons spelling out the album's name.
'Chromatica' is the first album from the 'Poker Face' singer since she released 'Joanne' in 2016. 'Joanne' spawned singles including, 'Perfect Illusion', 'Million Reasons' and 'The Cure' and reached Number 3 in the UK.
The 'Born This Way' singer originally told her fans that the release would be delayed because she wanted to make sure, 'everyone is staying safe and practicing social distancing.'
She went on to explain, 'I wanted to tell you, that after a lot of deliberation, I’ve made the incredibly tough decision to postpone the release of Chromatica. I will announce a new 2020 release date soon.'
