Its rumored the production of Cabaret will start early next year, so she will have more than enough time to focus on making a new album

girl what 

I’ve been listening to the radio hoping to catch Hold My Hand. 
Last night I randomly heard Rain On Me  Still no HMH 

I feel 30s is the age to create new music. Not to waste in acting. In fact the older you get the better your chances of an Oscar... But can a thriving music career survive in the 40s? But I feel Gaga knows she'll never top pop music like she used to, so she discarded it like a costume change and she moved on to the next new thing. But unfortunately on Spotify, people forget you if you don't release new music every year unless you have a deep catalogue...

What is this mess 

She released a pop album less than 2 years ago and she’s about to go on a world tour to promote that album. She hasn’t discarded the genre. 
Currently, she has a thriving music career, a thriving acting career, a thriving make up empire and a thriving nonprofit. Who else in the industry has all that?

 

Gaga will always release music. She wants to be a rocker chick in her 70s. That means at least 40 more years worth of music. 
Who is topping the charts in their 40s? You are acting like this is a unique problem that only Gaga will face. Songs like Poker Face, Bad Romance, Born This Way and Shallow (and Hold My Hand ) will out live Spotify. Spotify will eventually die just like iTunes, but people will still be listening to Gaga’s music on what ever comes next

I hope Gaga has it in her for one more '' big '' era before she focuses on acting and having children. Chromatica felt like it could've been just that, but alas, we know what happened. I just want her focus on music for one last time, instead of having a million projects ongoing simultaneously that might or might not have anything to do with music. 

I like her hair color in the video. It's not the typical washed out whitish platinum blonde hair she always has. It was more of a normal golden blonde tone with frosty highlights.

Most of those 40M are NMFs, and those playlists are useless after Friday

 

I hope they increase the playlisting

I think the thing to remember is that Gaga evidently wants to be an all-round entertainment legend. So there's no point in looking at her career through a popstar lens. Her decisions are not designed to get hit/viral singles/streams.

 

She's already got the fanbase, the fame and the catalogue to tour (which is what popstars drive toward - and is where the $ are), and she wisely pivoted/diversified her brand before she got dismissed for not being a cool twentysomething sensation anymore (which is inevitable in an ageist industry). ASIB was very smart. HMH may also be smart. It's essentially swerving radios ageism by having undeniable AC singles to pay attention to - avoiding what most ageing popstars have to deal with (increasingly niche euro dance bops for gay fanbases, that mainstream ignores for being too camp/off-trend).

 

That she's simultaneously pulling off a genuinely rare feat of being a successful/respectable actress (with Oscar noms/buzz) is fantastic for her. It opens so many doors for future success. She could have a few films under her belt, go to Broadway and try her hand at starring/writing there, before returning as an older actress (again, industry is ageist)...and now and then do what Cher and Madonna (and Kylie) did with the occasional hit song to top up the relevancy.

 

You can even say Haus Labs is unassumingly smart because it's opening up a revenue stream that subsidises her purely passion projects (/the fact she won't be able to tour due to her health), so she doesn't need to make $ orientated decisions which could ruin her legit clout (i.e. starring as a TV judge, no shade).

I think we all wish for that but IDK if it will happen, we don't know how inspired she is these days, is there even an album concept in her head.

You literally change your opinions depending on whether the song is a hit or not. That's worse than wanting "dark bawps" or ReDone back. At least those stans are in for the music.

spill after spill

Gaga is on a league of her own, no one does it like her in these times

people act like she's a JLo who had like 2 hits and no real music success or recognition and then turned to movies/series to survive as a celebrity

she could very well released her biggest album since The Fame and even bigger than ASIB but she doesn't

she could hop on trends to remain relevant (do a Bad Bunny feature, BTS feature) but she simply doesn't
