Born This Way is Lady Gaga’s third full-length studio album, emphasizing themes of self-acceptance, rebellion, and the gritty and glamorous underground party scene of New York's Lower East Side.
This album marks a departure from Gaga's debut euro-dance sound, incorporating electronic rock and techno-pop elements. The title track became an anthem for the LGBTQ+ community, promoting messages of equality and self-love. Other notable tracks include “Judas,” “The Edge of Glory,” and “You and I.” The album’s bold themes and diverse, gritty musical styles shined a unique spotlight on the underground subculture of New York, and won her both commercial success and critical acclaim.
