Lady Gaga's Joanne: Track-By-Track (Patreon Preview)

In a preview of this week's Pop Pantheon: All Access episode, Louie and Russ go track-by-track on Lady Gaga's fifth studio album, 2016's Joanne. A departure from the slamming dance beats and extravagance of her earlier eras, the record posited a more "stripped back" version of the camp queen, featuring a campaign laden with country signifiers including her signature pink cowboy hat, and a backstory about Gaga's aunt, the titular Joanne, who died before the pop star was born. But does it deliver on any of that? After underperforming commercially in its time, how have the songs held up? And in retrospect, what did Joanne portend for the next decade of Lady Gaga's career?
