I base that comment on her natural singing voice..her ability to play instruments, her producing/writing/costume design etc...I am not a Lady Gaga fan, some of her tunes are catchy but in no way am I super fan but if I were to compare her to Madonna on a skill to skill basis, I would say she has more talent..I have never found Madonna's singing voice and range to be enviable..it's just my opinion..
I think this was the performance that someone spoke of earlier..I really can't watch this and say she has no talent..sorry..

True story, Madonna IS a legend. Was lucky enough to get box seats to her concert last year, and was nothing short of blown away.
As for Gaga, its all a matter of opinion. All of my little hood-kids love her and think she is the creative soul of the new era. I can see their point of view, but most of the time I think she is annoying and an attention whore.

Apparently they are pretty similar...

Since Nielsen SoundScan data was not launched until 1991, we can't fairly compare Madonna's sales to Lady Gaga's. We can, however, look at their Billboard chart performances in their first 23 months after each artist's Hot 100 debut, since that's how long Lady Gaga has been impacting the chart. Madonna first reached the Hot 100 dated Oct. 29, 1983, and Lady Gaga, Aug. 16, 2008:
Billboard Hot 100
Madonna: 8 entries, 7 top 10s, 2 No. 1s (and 2 Gold titles, according to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)
Lady Gaga: 10 entries, 7 top 10s, 2 No. 1s (and 4 Platinum titles, according to the RIAA)
Billboard 200
Madonna: 2 entries, 2 top 10s, 1 No. 1
Lady Gaga: 2 entries, 2 top 10s
Dance/Club Play Songs (comparing each artist's first 26 months, since Lady Gaga first charted on the list dated May 3, 2008)
Madonna: 5 entries, 5 top 10s, 3 No. 1s
Lady Gaga: 8 entries, 8 top 10s, 7 No. 1s
Adult Contemporary
Madonna: 7 entries, 2 top 10s
Lady Gaga: 5 entries
Thus, in this strict comparison of charted titles, Madonna and Lady Gaga line up extremely similarly approximately two years into each artist's careers, especially on the Hot 100. At that checkpoint, each singer shows seven top 10s and two No. 1s.
Madonna's Billboard 200 ledger is more impressive, having banked a No. 1 with her second set, "Like a Virgin," as is her early Adult Contemporary crossover appeal. Conversely, on Dance/Club Play Songs, Lady Gaga's first two years-plus clearly outshine Madonna's, in terms of chart visits and top 10s (8-5 in each category) and No. 1s (7-3).
Only time well tell if Lady Gaga's career can continue to evolve along that of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame-enshrined Madonna, now counting 28 years since first putting her iconic stamp on pop music and culture.
Like Madonna, Lady Gaga writes her own material and possesses a unique sense of flare, so it's certainly possible that such a successful future could be in store.
Check back around 2036 and we'll have a better idea.

I think the true test will be time...
Madonna is not just a legend because of what she did but for the longevity of her success as well. Madonna has reinvented herself countless times unlike anyone else.
Lady Gaga is great now and breaking so many records and is talents and 'fresh' and yada yada yada... but truly only time will tell before anyone can make a true comparison. |

there is NOTHING to argue lol - all you're doing is posting "you can't be ing serious" over and over again
what kinda argument is that lol?
I know my Madonna discography pretty well, thanks - I grew up on her videos and records
Gaga is still young and if she's a true star, she'll hang around long enough to be the next Madonna, if not - then it was still fun to have her around

| I got written up at work once for walking out of a training class after warning the trainer that I would if Lady Gaga came on the station she was blaring in the classroom. It was worth it. |
