Lady Gaga’s “Dawn of Chromatica” Remix Album Is a Captivating Rush of Hyperpop: Listen
Little Monsters, rejoice: Lady Gaga‘s Dawn of Chromatica remix album has finally arrived. Fans have endured over 15 months and a revolving door of rumors since Gaga’s chart-topping, cyberpunk-themed Chromatica album dropped, but the wait was worth it.
