Lady Gaga<\/strong><\/a> is one of pop\u2019s most prolific artists, and she\u2019s released plenty of incredible studio albums across her decade-plus long career.<\/p>\n In celebration of the \u201cStupid Love\u201d singer\u2019s kick-off of the Chromatica Ball<\/em> tour<\/a>, we\u2019re taking a look back and seeing how all of her studio albums fared on Metacritic<\/a>, which compiles reviews from journalists around the world.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s how their ranking system works: \u201cCreating our proprietary Metascores is a complicated process. We carefully curate a large group of the world\u2019s most respected critics, assign scores to their reviews, and apply a weighted average to summarize the range of their opinions. The result is a single number that captures the essence of critical opinion in one Metascore.\u201d<\/p>\n From her 2008 debut studio album The Fame<\/em> up to 2021\u2032s Love For Sale<\/em>, here\u2019s how Lady Gaga\u2019s albums are ranked\u2026<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Metascore: 61<\/strong><\/p>\n Billboard <\/em>wrote that \u201cCoherently channeling R&B, techno, disco and rock music as a pop artist while discussing sex, drugs, lust, God, fame and creativity, Lady Gaga has offered fans her most sonically and lyrically diverse album to date.\u201d <\/p>\n The Telegraph<\/em> declared \u201cShe doesn\u2019t do anything wildly original with them [musical genres], but she has fun.\u201d <\/p>\n The Observer<\/em> said \u201cIt\u2019s no instant classic, then, but neither is it the calamity that some have foreseen, being a typically mixed Gaga outing with some ludicrous highs, questionable digressions (Jewels \u2018N\u2019 Drugs, in which three rappers add little to the mix; or Donatella, a charmless ode to the equally charmless Versace supremo) and plenty of not-unpleasant filler.\u201d<\/p>\n10.
