“Dope” is a song by American recording artist Lady Gaga. It is the only ballad on her third album, ARTPOP.

During her performance at the 2013 iTunes Festival (dubbed Swinefest by the Lady herself) she played an early version of the song with different lyrics called “I Wanna Be With You”.

Lady Gaga promoted “Dope” before its release by wearing a snapback featuring the word DOPE, as well as posting its lyrics on Instagram, triggering the social media website’s concern.

“Dope” peaked at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 due to a boost from Gaga’s performance of the song at the YouTube Music Awards.
