As fans eagerly await the release of Lady Gaga’s much-anticipated new album Mayhem, the pop icon has shared exciting insights into her upcoming music. Gaga gave a sneak peek into two of the tracks featured on the album—The Beast and Perfect Celebrity—and explained how the world of ballroom culture inspired the new sound.
Discussing The Beast, Gaga revealed that the song’s lyrics revolve around a “werewolf” character representing her inner self. “The lyrics are: ‘You can’t hide who you are, 11:59, your heart’s racin’, you’re growling, and we both know why,’” Gaga said, adding that the song delves into themes of self-identity and transformation.
The Mayhem album, due out on March 7 via Interscope, also includes previously released singles Disease, Abracadabra, and Die With a Smile. Fans can catch Gaga during the Little Monster Press Conference on March 6 at 6 p.m. ET, where she will answer questions live across Spotify’s social media channels.
