Lets not make this list stan war’d.
Queen Conchita Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 I think I agree with the OP here, the official certification company for this country doesn't count it as a Lady Gaga album and certifications is what this thread is about after all.

Posted both the official charts of the UK and the company which certifies albums congratulating both Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. I guess we can just wait for the OP’s 2nd ban and start a new thread without biases.

Shallow counts for Gaga but the soundtrack doesn't, it's credited as "Motion Picture Cast Recording" on BRIT/BPI official database and doesn't come up when you search her name... however Shallow is listed as "Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper" and it does come up when you search her name : https://www.bpi.co.uk/brit-certified/

Witnessed ET Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Katy up there at #8 with only 4 albums. Queen.
getinthezone Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 sort by album sales and this list will actually have a purpose
istan4badgalriri Posted November 13, 2018 Author Posted November 13, 2018 @Blade It’s not just “some search engine”, it’s literally their official site/database, the UK equivalent of the RIAA. If I wanted to be petty I would’ve excluded Shallow as well, but I didn’t. They have Shallow listed as a Gaga/Bradley song, but the soundtrack is listed as Motion Picture Cast Recording and doesn’t come up under her name on their official database. I didn’t make the rules. Another example, they didn’t credit Rihanna for “Famous” even though she sings every chorus in the song, and I still didn’t include it in her numbers because their database doesn’t.

A non-credit doesn't count. Like SICKO Mode shouldn't count for Drake. But it does go somewhere, it goes to Travis Scott. By doing this bull**** and avoiding what OCC and BPI say, you're basically having the certification go to absolutely nowhere. It won't be credited to anyone under your rules.

It won't be credited to anyone under your rules. Here you go comparing regular singles/albums (not affiliated to movies), to soundtrack albums. Soundtrack albums do not necessarily have to count towards one specific artist like regular studio albums do, and BPI seems to agree. Using your logic, "The Greatest Showman" OST certification (which is also credited as Motion Picture Cast Recording on BPI) should "go somewhere" and count towards an individual artist's total ? Which one ? Hugh Jackman ? Keala Settle ? Zac Efron ? Zendaya ? All of them ? I used BPI's official website/database to make this thread. I just search each artist's name and whatever comes up under their name will be counted towards their total. If I have to start doing further research for songs/albums where the artist wasn't credited, it's gonna be a mess. I didn't count Bodyguard OST for Whitney either, since it's credited as "Original Soundtrack" on BPI site. 23 hours ago, Blade said: Posted both the official charts of the UK and the company which certifies albums congratulating both Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.

You sound a lil angry now You're free to start your own thread with your own personal rules if this one doesn't make you happy. If I was biased, I would've counted Famous for Rihanna, Hymn For The Weekend for Beyoncé, Bodyguard OST for Whitney, etc. I'm literally applying the same rule for everyone (which is what I would call being unbiased): no artist credit in BPI database = doesn't count in the artist's total. It's really not that hard to comprehend.

It's really not that hard to comprehend. TGS is credited as Various Artists. It would in fact go to no ones total. I still wouldnt include Famous or HFTW to anywhere but Kanye or Coldplay as they chose their credits accordingly. A Star Is Born blatantly says Gaga & Bradley. On iTunes, on Spotify, on Apple Music, as well as recognized by OCC and chart successes for both of those artists (they didnt single out Hugh or Zac when making articles on TGS) But yeah at least your one search engine isnt returning Gaga’s name. I will make a new thread in due time. I’ll use official credits so Whitney’s OST will be added as well.
slobro Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Gaga contributed more to the ASIB soundtrack than Rihanna did to her entire discography yet the OP is getting pedantic over a search engine result

And it's what I'm using for this thread since it's the official music certifications database of the UK. Madonna's Evita OST, on which she sings on almost every song and counts towards her chart history on OCC, is also credited as "Original Soundtrack" on BPI website.

Rusty Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 Screaming at this mess of a thread excluding Gaga when she gets a hit album. Oh well, what to expect from a thread by an OGH.
iiSuperManii Posted November 18, 2018 Posted November 18, 2018 Hey @istan4badgalriri , this article "The female solo artists with the most Number 1 albums" is from Official Charts website https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/the-female-solo-artists-with-the-most-number-1-albums__16217/ They Added: Quote Gaga: **4 including A Star Is Born's Motion Picture Cast Recording, a soundtrack featuring songs by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, with spoken interludes from other cast members. so I really don't see why wouldn't you include it now? .

Oh well, what to expect from a thread by an OGH. Official website of the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), UK equivalent of the RIAA: https://www.bpi.co.uk/brit-certified/ Search "Lady Gaga", the soundrack doesn't come up, but Shallow does. Here you can contact them if you have an issue with their database not listing ASIB as a Lady Gaga album ---> https://www.bpi.co.uk/contact/ Like I said before, and multiple times, they have Shallow listed for Gaga but not ASIB, so I've included the former but not the latter. I didn't count Bodyguard for Whitney either, since BPI database doesn't have it listed for her. I've made this thread without any biases. This is the last time I'm responding to this, and if I keep seeing flamebait and off-topic posts in my thread, I'll start reporting y'all.
