Lady Gaga just released the companion album to her new movie “Joker: Folie à Deux” … it’s called “Harlequin.” To be clear, this is not her new studio album LG7 that’s about to come out, but instead it’s LG6.5 for the movie coming out 10/4/24 which is a “musical,” filled with jazz and pop music standards that are woven into the film and performed “live” by Gaga’s character “Lee.” It’s a very different album for a very different movie where Gaga explores very different styles … something that is very on brand for Gaga. Very on brand.

Lady Gaga talks about the album and you can read about it here. And here she talks to Apple Music about the album as well:

And then here’s one of the tracks if you want to give it a listen …

The creativity is just so … creative … so Gaga … so front and center. As Gaga says, “creative people are very special.” I’m not sure that anyone else could pull this off quite this way and honestly be so articulate about it at the same time. Which is SO brand Lady Gaga.

Art.
