Earlier this week, Gaga took to Twitter to post some of the lyrics to 'Applause' which is set for release on August 19.
The 'Born This Way' singer wrote: "I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong to crash the critic saying: is it right or is it wrong? 8.19"
Gaga has also used her Twitter account to ask fans not to listen to her new material on computer speakers.
She wrote: "Oh, & just a suggestion... use HEADPHONES when listening to the new music, ARTPOP is ELECTRONIC CANDY & DELISH ON THE EARS.
"THE SPEAKERS ON YOUR COMPUTER are NOT ACCEPTABLE, unless you like hearing music underwater. I do not."
