b'DJ Louie is joined by New York Times Contributor Lindsay Zoladz to discuss Mother Monster herself, Lady GaGa! First, Lindsay drops some EXPLOSIVE ArtPop Hot Goss. Then, Louie and Lindsay dig into GaGa\\u2019s meteoric rise to mega-stardom, her bold queering of the pop cultural landscape, debunk some of the annoying critical narratives that plagued initial rise, chart the Pop-altering establishment of the Little Monsters, her musical, presentational, and social media innovations, whether or not ArtPop deserves Justice, and how, in the latter part of her career, she\\u2019s morphed from a hit-to-hit pop star into a much grander type of Icon. Finally, Louie and Lindsay debate the BIG question: is GaGa a Tier 2 Megastar or\\u2026. *gasp*... has she ascended to the top of the Pantheon as a Tier 1 Icon?!\\nCheck out Lindsay\'s retrospective on the "Telephone" video in the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/10/arts/music/lady-gaga-beyonce-telephone.html\\nFollow Pop Pantheon on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/poppantheonpod/\\nFollow Pop Pantheon on Twitter: https://twitter.com/PopPantheonPod\\nFollow DJ Louie XIV on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/djlouiexiv/\\nFollow DJ Louie XIV on Twitter: https://twitter.com/djlouiexiv\\nFollow Lindsay Zoladz on Twitter: https://twitter.com/lindsayzoladz'
