Lady Gaga has announced her upcoming and previously named LG6 will be released on April 10th and officially titled 'Chromatica', as many fans guessed on her previous billboards and on the 'Stupid Love' music video. The record is executive-produced by Bloodpop and will include 16 tracks.
In a recent phone call conversation with Beats 1's Zane Lowe, Gaga described the meaning of the album saying: "The symbol for Chromatica has a sine wave in it, which is the mathematical symbol for sound, and it's from what all sound is made from, and, for me, sound is what healed me in my life period, and it healed me again making this record, and that is really what Chromatica is all about." "It's about healing and it’s about bravery as well and it’s really like when we talk about love I think it’s so important to include the fact that it requires a ton of bravery to love someone," she added.
"BloodPop brought it up, and we talked about how Chromatica was essentially on its own when you first look at it, it seems to be about colors and all the different colors and also music is made of a chromatic scale, you know? So it's all the colors, all the sounds, you know, so we, we're talking about inclusivity and life and also a lot of what we see around us and what we're experiencing is math, which is very much like music and sound is math as well.
The cover art of the album will be announced soon and instead, a temporary placeholder was shown for what is to be revealed in the future. Alongside the album title announced, Gaga dropped new merch including t-shirts, hoodies, stickers and more. They were designed by Bryan Rivera, Travis Brothers, Darío Alva, and Isha Dipika Walia, who were also behind the "Stupid Love" artwork
