Lady Gaga is Stafani Germanotta whose been active since 2001. She has been going to school for musical theatre when she left to focus on her music career. She made some songs for an audiobook in 2005, and started a band called SGBand with friends. She was discovered by a talent scout after her performing in 2006, got signed, and coined the term Lady Gaga from a Queen song. She got dropped from the label after a few months, and started performing at neo-burlesque shows, working on her stage presence. She started performing with Lady Starlight as Lady Gaga and the Starlight Revue, and they ended up performing at Lollapalooza in 2007. She got signed again, and signed as a songwriter which led to her writing hits for some pretty big names, until Akon heard her voice and signed her to his label as well. Her debut album came out in 2008 and launched her into stardom. She toured with The Pussycat Dolls and wrote an EP at the same time, releasing that in 2009. That EP made her even more popular, and with her popularity increasing she did world tours and collaborated with other industry leaders. Her next album came out in 2011 followed by a tour in 2012. These years kind of marked when she didn't have to do crazy things to be heard, she stood on her talent alone. She's made three more albums since then and has continued to gain respect from other generations that might not have liked her at the beginning, and overall become a staple in the industry. She's done well for herself and is a great addition to the music world so I'm happy to feature her song today.
Peace.
