We're breaking down "Abracadabra" by Lady Gaga, the second (technically third) taste of MAYHEM. After premiering during The 2025 Grammys, the track has signaled a leap for and already sparked major conversation. We’re getting into key creatives and collaborators who worked on the song and video, and the team behind it. What is Abracadabra, song and video, about? From the sonic direction to critics' reception, I’m diving deep into where this track sits in Gaga’s discography and why it feels like one of her most defining releases in years. Plus, I'll be discussing claims of her mirroring too much from previous hits. Vinyl Drop covers pop music with an emphasis on new releases, the artists' creative process, collaborators, and their marketing strategy. What do you think of "Abracadabra"? Where does it rank for you? And what should we break down next?
