LOL @ #7 You’d think Bens Chilli Bowl was in the hood the way they always have it in these videos. Personally I think Pinks is waaay better. People from Cali know what Im talking about. I’m DC native btw.
Im surprised Lady Gaga didn’t cover one of her eyes. I know she was itching to hide one of her eyes with that clutch. One time she randomly covered her eye with her hand in an interview. I was like umm…ok. She stays repping the Eye of Horus/All seeing Eye in her videos. She may come off as original and innovative but at the end of the day she’s still an Illuminati puppet robot whore. And she def came off sounding exactly like MIA. You Lady Gaga fans are as defensive as Beyonce stans…wow.

Lady GaGA STYLE is like no other. So is her VOICE… BTW so this video in April..
Thin it sound like M.I.A .b/c of the beat and feel.. prbably same producers.
Has anyone heard ”The Fame” … That girl can write…
Just dance was wriitten, after a night out…
She isnt imiatating Solange style. Have you seen that girls zig zag on her face, Its all her. She comes to London & is so inspired. With her cute little pinky cup thing.
Paparazzi Video is wicked…. But i love the song more that the video… Video is innovative though..
I have no idea who WALE is ??! *clueless*
But i do think he got GAGA because of her popularity and exposure.. I doubt a wider audience (bacause his another new rapper on the scene) would buy into this if she wasnt feautured…

Agree 40 VEE…
She is so inspired with art & Music. She brings them together. Her style is very catwalk fashion. 80s and glam..She is a breath of fresh air. I believe she doesnt tie into this video because it does look low budget aswell.
People do not give this girl much credit for her voice. Have you heard her acapella?? Damn poker face/love game and paparrazi sound wild… when she sings them live..But if she sand that way i doubt people would buy into her music. That is how it is the music buisness is nowdays.. Its good she gives us both realms though..i studio & live.

@ 44
Actually that “zig zag” on her face that you’re referring to is not all her. Its a broken S or a satanic S and it represents satan as a thunderbolt. It means destroyer, and in Greek mythology was the weapon of Zeus. It was a symbol worn by the SS of Nazi Germany. And there’s a plethora of rock groups that used it as there symbol as well…namely Kiss, AC/DC, and Black Sabbath (all self-proclaimed Satanist). Also its frequently used as a symbol on a lot of the Harry Potter animations. This is all fact nothing conspiratory, before the naysayers bite off my head.
BTW anyone can write songs like she does especially when you’re high off coke and demon possesed. And yes she does do coke and promotes the usage in her lyrics and videos. We’ve all seen what coke does to you….needless to say, the flavor in her bubble gum wont last for long.

I believe he just got her because of her status. Love her part…
41.
TOONS
She does that because she is trying to differentiate herself from every other artist in the business.. What other artist have u seen with a ZIG Zag on their face.Or doing very artistic han movements in their vid. i.e paparazzivid.
I doubt her parents brought her up with any religous views. Some people are born to believe in god - some aint.. They believe neither in god or satan. It is what it is.
53.
Even in the tough times, have hope...
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 /
didnt see your other answer Toons
Like you said the Zig Zag aint all her. Her camp that probaly advised her to potray must know the meaning behind it. I bet she has no idea.A broken S into a Z? means satan.Sounds trivial.
are you an insider? How do you know this info. well how would answers somebodys writing capabilites like Taylor Swift. That question was wortless. B/c their are many songwriters out ther that dont have to be high to write wicked songs. The girl does write songs about sex..At least she says she has dexperienced in drugs b4. Every1 in the industry like jayz ia all backmasked.I know she writes songs on sex. But aint heard any on her drugs.. Wanna give examples

The lightening bolt is a Ziggy Stardust (David Bowie’s alter ego) reference. Lady GaGa is beyond any comparison you might make to any pop artist out now, as she’s a virtuoso and really, honestly as bright and full of potential as she thinks. The problem is, she thinks a lot of herself and it comes off as very pretentious, considering the genre in which she operates. She’s looking to make art of pop music a la Ziggy Stardust and his trash glam, but she tries way too hard to force it down our throats… It’s because of the speed of technology and proliferation of images, how soon we can move onto the next set of shared images. At least she’s trying to give us something that isn’t stale. The fact that she can play the piano makes her an actual musician as well (there is a difference between a musician and a singer, not to discredit anyone in the latter category, but it’s just so) and she’s articulate and innovative (if contrived half the time, but I covered that above) so let’s not diss her just because we can, okay? Besides, who accuses anybody of copying Solange? Are you kidding me?
55.

@ 51
I’ll give her wearing it on her face as original, but it’s not where she’s using it in her “art” it’s the symbol itself. These artists aren’t stupid. They aren’t ignorant to the symbols they use.They use symbology heavily in their work to convey their messages and or beliefs. And the fact that you said her camp advised her to use it solidyfies my claim that she is a puppet. And the whole “artistic hand movements” are actually robotic dance moves. There is nothing new and or original about that. They’ve been doing it since the 80’s and I’ve seen both Beyonce and Kylie Mingoue do them, there’s more but I can’t think of them off the top of my head.
And she was actually brought up in a religious Baptist home and attended a private Catholic school, so her and her parents are definitely familiar with God. She said she turned her back against religion and basically rebelled.
Correct you dont have to be high or possessed to write lyrics. I used to write poetry and song so I know. However a lot of these artist have admitted that they dont write their music, and that it was channeled. Example Michael Jackson one of the greatest artists of all time said himself in a rare interview on youtube that he can’t take credit for writing his music, and that he feels like he didn’t write his songs. They were already written somewhere out in space and he was the source and tunnel through which they flow. Also he said he had a secret room with a moving wall covered in mirrors where he used to talk to this spirit called Lee and get inspired. He was also a follower of Aliester Crowley founder of Satanism and heavily into the occult who was on MJs Dangerous album and one of the Beatles albums.
I know all of this because I read and I research. There is more than meets the eye to the artisits and the entertainment industry as a whole. You dont have to be an insider to know know any of this. They basically spoon feed us this info, but we get too caught up in them and the music without actually thinking about what it is were listening to and or following.

@ Toons WOW! kudos to you for doing your research & actually diseccting the material being fed to you before eating it. There are so subliminal messages in entertainment that are being advertised for mass consumption that we’re all blind to & it’s crazy. People are so caught up being starstruck. I don’t & will never support any artist that promotes & is led by & trying to sell satanic evil propoganda; that is crazy. & it’s scary the messages we consume & we don’t know the meaning behind them & we don’t care to find out; all we care for is a hot beat. I’ve been guilty of that but from now on I won’t.

i do believe some artists are unaware though. I’m not making excuses for them, i couldn’t care less. You just told me that the Z is symbolic for Satan. I had no idea who David Bowie was until I just quickly googled. Who is gonna to think twice about a z on their face.
I’m just saying nobody would analyse. I didn’t. Obviously if a video has triangles, occult and illumanti symbols that would be evidently blatant. Puppet or not, stylists usually dress them I believe the whole music industry is corrupted. It is sad to see some people representing those symbols are being manipulated. For example their was Houston, he came from a Christian up bringing. Somebody mentioned him here.
She quoted in a British magazine, that she isn’t close to her parents. She was brought up on the east side on New York. I know she agnostic. She doesn’t care for neither.Can you send me the link – to were it says she went o a catholic school ? and her parent were not religious. I’m just curious – send me the link to the MJ info aswell – that you typed about
-
I know my stuff too,b I believe few amounts of artists are unaware. They are manipulated - like you said the more than meets the eye..Som may not even know they are representing a baphomet image in a video.

For example a British artist named Jay Sean - that is his stage named. His actual name is ‘’Kamaljit Jhoothi. His Indian Sikh. Is 1st album was ‘’me against the music’’ and his 2nd was ‘’my own way’’ after his 2nd album. He was doing tours. Wayne was visitng over here and catched one of his concerts. He signed him to his label cashmoney. Up until the point wayne signed jay. Jay seans videos were pretty simple studio type video about love – break ups.
I catched one of his video beginning of 2009.Made in Miami by Wayne people and the video has occult imagery with triangles like rihanna. The same could be said with songs, jay is making his 3rd album with Wayne. In a song named down ft Wayne. At the end of the song the word Satan was encrypted, It isn’t jays voice. But sounded like a back voice of a producer. His previous 2 albums and videos have no imagery of satan.occult I believ this album will.. Because of the American labels.
I
.In London - the artist videos. Have no mention of satan…If the artist is picked up by a American label. Gradually you would start to see the ’signs of satan” and occult in the videos. That is obviosuly b/c of the American labels/record producers influence…
people have no idea at all,that they are worshipping satan” They are completely unaware… some people are aware and some are just sub - consciously blind…like some of the folks on here.

@Toons
Lol, bring it out. This creature, Lady Gaga, has become a top wtich very quickly and it’s easy to tell if you have a discrening eye, who the elite want to blow up based on who they align new “artists” with. Just like the Lil Mama/Avril Lavigne single. Very good information that you’re bringing out sis. In addition to what you said, the lightening bolt is a symbol for knowledge, wisdom, and understanding. This is why they worship Satan; because they feel that he “enlightens” the “eye” (Luke 10:18). If you haven’t gotten it yet, you should pick up the book by Tex Marrs, Codex Magica. I peeped this chic Lady Gaga from awhile ago and I’m not surprised that they threw her on the single of this dude, “Wale”. I saw a feature done on him in “GQ” magazine of all places where the photo showed that he had sold his soul. One of his eyes was covered by a microphone and the microphone cord was coiled around his neck like a serpent, showing you that he had been ensnared by the devil (I Tim 6:9,10). I pointed out the photo to the brothers and sisters in the class and told them that he would be blown up in the media. First off, a black rapper with no name being publicized in “GQ” magazine, lol?
