Lady Gaga: Mayhem (CD)

Lady Gaga's 7th studio album, MAYHEM, was released on March 7, 2025, marking the artist's spectacular return to her electronic and experimental pop roots. Recorded at Rick Rubin's Shangri-La studio in Malibu, California, the 14-track album features dark synth-pop and industrial dance influences, inspired by icons such as David Bowie and Nine Nine Nails. Thematically, the release deals with chaos, fame, identity, and internal conflicts, and features hit singles like "Disease", "Abracadabra", and the popular duet "Die With a Smile" recorded with Bruno Mars. Visually combining gothic and cyberpunk aesthetics, the album received excellent reviews from critics, debuted at the top of the charts, and was ultimately awarded the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album in 2026.
