Kishi Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Today marks the release of "Anything Goes", the first single from their upcoming jazz duet album "Cheek To Cheek", which will include American standards and some new material. The album releases in September. This morning they'll appear on The Today Show, yesterday an album listening party took place and a PBS special was filmed to air in October.

hotboy06 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I don't have a problem with her exploring other genres of music..because she's completely faded out of the pop scene at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kishi Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 She's performed jazz throughout her career, it's nothing new. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWXC9ePbcdM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zl_kygKrFw no comment Sucks to be a lil monster The fanbase is very excited about this album and the reaction has been great. I love that this album will focus on her vocals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 That's great that she's been performing Jazz since she was a teen but that's not gonna cut it in the pop industry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kishi Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 That's great that she's been performing Jazz since she was a teen but that's not gonna cut it in the pop industry This is a jazz album and it's catering to an audience that listens to jazz music. There's no push to pop and it isn't being released to pop radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't talking about some jazz artist.. Lady Gaga is pop. That's like if Katy Perry started singing religious songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kishi Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 We aren't talking about some jazz artist.. Lady Gaga is pop. That's like if Katy Perry started singing religious songs Funny enough, Katy Perry already made the transition from gospel to pop, she released a Christian album as Katy Hudson (her birth name) before her major label debut. Lady Gaga is a pop singer, clearly. But Tony Bennett is a jazz singer and the album is jazz music only, so I don't see your point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant "going back" to non-secular music Pop singer doesn't mix well with Jazz album in terms of image This is the same woman who wore a meat dress... And now she's doing jazz? I just think it's an odd couple.. A 70 year old with a 30 year old.. And Madonna isn't finished with her album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her clothing is bizarre and over the top. Many people will ignore her many talents and ignore this album because of her antics. But when it comes to the music, this album will deliver and anyone who can appreciate standards/jazz or is open to listening to different genres should be satisfied.

Putting Lady Gaga on a Jazz album is so outlandish of her.. Total right field for someone who made a career out of being total left-field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total right field for someone who made a career out of being total left-field To the general public, she's a left field pop star. But those who follow her closely know she has a diverse taste in genres, she's a musical chameleon in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
