DJ and super producer, Zedd, sat down with MTV's James Montgomery to talk about the progress on Gaga’s upcoming album, ARTPOP. Check out what he had to say below after the jump!

Zedd later took to Twitter & Facebook page on Tuesday night, to add some… clarity to what he told MTV about the project still being “rough”: There’s been an interview where some things I said were placed out of context and misunderstood so I wanna make sure you guys know what I was ACTUALLY saying before media bent it to what they wish I said. 

I never said ARTPOP is “rough” or “far away from being finished”!. I was speaking about my own material with her and how we have to finish that up. I’m a perfectionist and to me, everything that’s not perfect yet is “rough”, and that’s also why it’s going to be so good. When I said “it could be 10, it could be 5, it could be 1 song” I obviously didn’t talk about the number of songs on ARTPOP in general, I was talking about the number of MY tracks/ productions on ARTPOP. We worked on a lot of songs and I don’t know which of our collaborations are making the album; she is in creative control of that decision.
