Still has quite a bit to go to reach Rep's 1st week sales, but still. 

Didn’t Rih’s last solo effort spend 31 weeks inside the top10? 

So much for relying on features I guess 

Great

this is like calling an album from The White Stripes a female album, but good her for. Now do the last 3 years

not really? It’s like saying Closer doesn’t count as a female #1 because The Chainsmokers are on it? Work isn’t a female #1 because Drake is on it? If A Star Is Born bombed you’d all be saying the opposite, it’s so transparent

Features are different from pure collaborations, although that doesn't really matter to this conversation. I think that there is different logic that applies to the concepts of singles vs soundtrack albums, because the entire album doesn't credit Gaga as a performer. But ALSO i don't really care that much in this particular case. And i would think the same if it bombed.

It's a soundtrack album but okay. I mean it got major promo. What did you expect? It would be sad if it wasn't top ten.

Where? The only promo it got / is getting is from the film itself. Are you mistaking the film promo for soundtrack promo? sis I-

Shallow is literally playing in the movies commercial. Being a movie soundtrack is promo in itself.

Cardi B

 

Also ASIB isn't a female album. It's a dual lead with Bradley Cooper.

1. Cardi B (Invasion of Privacy): 21 weeks
2. Gaga (A Star is Born): 11 weeks
2. Taylor (reputation): 11 weeks

The TALENT that that has  

That's quite... specific. Why last two years? 

And btw, is this a joint album or nah? If Everything's Love isn't a Beyoncé album this ain't a Gaga album.

Yes, since it broke a Billboard record amongst females.

 

Gaga’s Fifth No. 1 Album This Decade: Gaga now has five No. 1 albums in the 2010s -- the most among women. (She was previously tied with Taylor Swift, who has four leaders in the ‘10s.)

 

The bodyguard is a female album, but apparently asib is not lmfao

this was a skulldrag!  

hardly, when she would have more #1s even without her collaborations

to make things simple 

 

A Star Is Born is:

• a soundtrack album

• a duet album 

• a female album

• a male album

• a Lady Gaga album 

• a Bradley Cooper album 

• a Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper album 

 

A Star Is Born is not:

• a solo female album

• a solo male album

• a solo Lady Gaga album

• a solo Bradley Cooper album 

• letting the OGHs breathe

There is, here’s their last.fm page

maybe change the title of the thread to “joint album”, I’m sure they’ve outsold The Carters

Nice try. The Carters refer to a duo. The & in "Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper" refers they can be counted as individual albums in their discography (as a result, Bradley Cooper has also now a discography section on his wiki page)

Plus, BB counted as an album credited to Lady Gaga as @Remixed

 already pointed out.

The funny thing is most people who discredit Gaga's success in ASIB stan for girls who don't write or produce their own music. Can your faves entire discography even be considered hers if ASIB isn't counted for Gaga's discography? Hmm 

Wait-- no that u mentioned it.
