But there's campaign and campaign. These stuff is not herself it's the label. 
The 911 MV however I highly doubt she did it for the Grammys. Came out in August, no push to radio or else (that I recall). It felt like GUY 2.0, giving a little treat to the fans, be free with her concept and tease a bit for the VMA. 
 

you don't campaign with only one performance during the whole era, like she even got lucky to get noms tbh

no one campaigned hard that year really

Taylor did nothing for folklore...

Clowning a bit but if she only added Joker 2 to the post after editing it, then that basically confirms the music is coming this year

I mean her wording means music is def coming this year

Joker 2 won't heal people

The entire post is clearly emphasizing the MUSIC (she even put that in caps), and she did recently claim she was working as fast as she can so yeah a 2024 release seems likely

Let's just hope things go smoothly and she doesn't end up cancelling or delaying it for whatever reason

Also LaMaisonGaga is a such a huge fraud.

Before Cowboy Carter tracklist release he put a joanne hat as his profile pic on twitter and then ofc took it down the day it was revealed there was no collab. He wants to be an insider so bad. 

Gaga: Records a country influenced album.

 

Critics and fans: "So inauthentic!”

 

Gaga: Makes an album honoring a deceased aunt who she has previously talked a lot about and published a poem for.

Beyoncé: Records a country influenced album.

 

Critics and fans: "Talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show-stopping…”

Joanne was not an issue, I love that record!

the problem was the PR around it, if they packaged it as a coming to adulthood album with Gaga trying to get closer to her family... it would have made more sense

also Beyoncé is getting some people not liking her album at all and even some critics thinking it's not that well crafted overall

I love both Joanne and Cowboy Carter so Idc

a masterpiece

i blame her team for not being able to craft her a narrative like a "reclaim the country genre and make it a beyonce album out of it" and "a celebration of underground LGBTQ+ dance club culture" or whatever that it

Sinner's Prayer is very underrated. Joanne is a solid album that would be even better if she wasn't forced to water it down by the label. Hopefully she is in a better place now where she doesn't have to compromise (I think Chromatica was pretty safe but it was just her incapacity to engage with the production rather than her label forcing her). 

With Joanne I do think it's a mix of being commercialize (it happened with Chromatica too) and her experimenting with the genre cause it's a bit foreign for her. She perfected the genre with ASIB tho

We kinda already know who is producing, though? Ozzy confirmed Watt is working with her + he reacts to each and every post on her insta.

Ding ding ding! They aren't as great at crafting narratives like Bey's team.

It will heal me tho 

Yeah she sandwiched the "this year" sentence between two sentences mentioning music so I do think it points to new music (outside of Joker) this year. But then again it's Gaga, and we can't take her words literally.

and? Gaga did this:

 

those were to campaign for Chromatica at the GRAMMYs

Taylor releasing evermore was a nonfactor in the nomination process, more in the voting process for the actual award

This base becomes a complete mayhem after every major release this woman has succeeded in losing the trust her fans put in her.

Her latest Instagram post made me so excited for this upcoming album that I don't even need anything else. Just reading about how excited and happy she is and how optimistic she is about this new music is enough for me. Whenever it arrives, I'll be ready and I can already feel that it will be amazing

same, she seems pretty confident about her music which is a great feeling

Some of the Chromatica interviews were so depressing  It's very relatable, having regret about meeting life goals, and wondering if your new reality is what you even want. I'm glad she's seemingly in a better place now.

LG is truly a visionary and there is so much evidence of her leading trends. I feel she doesn't get enough recognition for this and part of the reason is because her own fans don't hype her up enough. The way y'all dragged Joanne and Chromatica when they led the country and house resurgence  how do we expect other people to respect mother when we don't.

So true, it's sad punctually see also part of her fanbase downplay her achievements and what she did in the last 10 years.

 

The only argument I will always agree with OGHs is when they labelled this fanbase 'insecure', an insecurity that has lead in the last years part of this fanbase to punctually repeat the same stale drags that her haters have repeated since years.

 

An example also when it comes to her jazz albums, sure I can understand that not everybody like that kind of music, it's fine, but some people act as if Heidi Montag could have recorded those records easily with another legend and doing justice to those classics and winning 2 Grammys, downplaying the talent you need to deliver those records, a narrative also in this case always pushed by her haters that have always trashed those projects, when in fact it should be seen as a cool thing that somebody is able to deliver both modern dance pop and jazz classics, very rare artists can.
