Ooh that' not-

 

The way Gar never got clocked and ratio'd this hard during Nurtecgate or Art&CapitalismGate

 

 

 

Do we think Gar would ever take a similar approach and not release singles? If for whatever reason she wanted to drop a studio album before JFAD, a single-less album with a one time drop and one time promo blitz could work.

I doubt it. Her team has always been rather old school in promo tactics and award campaigns. I also don't like the idea of no singles in general. 

 

I'm glad Gaga didn't make her cyber truck #ad as obvious   

where tf is she...

Enjoying the calm before the tsunami that will

be JFad this fall. I don't blame her. 

Wasn't she spotted in NYC this past weekend?

I mean yeah it does look kinda cheap but it's just silly for her team to not claim ~5M consumption units with a sped up version. Cause they literally belong to no one rn 

 

Unfortunately, there's nothing they can do now. It's not an issue of "claiming" it — those units happened already but will go to no one since they were from unofficial sources.

 

This actually happens with every popular song to some extent (see those ARUTW edits/lyric videos on YouTube with hundreds of millions of views each), but is mostly mitigated by an official upload/release, which the most popular version of Bloody Mary just didn't get unfortunately.

 

The saddest part to me is this was an easy smash handed to them on a silver platter that involved literally no work from the artist herself — literally all they had to do was speed it up, release it on streaming, and use the same footage Netflix already allowed them to use (see the Spotify canvas for the song) and upload that as the "music video" to YouTube, just like the popular 420M+ viewed upload that continues to get around 400K views a day. Perhaps they wanted to see if the original would blow up on its own, but after a week (hell, even a month) of the unofficial sped up versions gaining more traction, they should have bit the bullet and sprang into action to get an official upload of the sped up version on all platforms.

 

I usually don't like to criticize her team to the extent many here do, but this was a big, big blunder on their part given how easy it was.

tbh it could be refreshing, seeing as she usually uses lead singles that aren't well received recently (PI - SL)

also she'd def push singles but post album ones

Speaking of #ads...  I saw the new Nurtec one on television last night   The Edge of Glory sounded cute. 

I think dropping the lead the same day as the album could be a smart move. Depending on when she releases, the Joker hype would help boost interest and as Ms @chosensparkles says if history is any indication a single would only kill the momentum

 

I've always seen Gar as more of an album artist anyway so I wouldn't care too much if she skipped the singles, just as long as she doesn't announce any more than 6 weeks prior. I'm impatient.

It's been 4 years without an album. I can't believe Coronatica was 4 years ago.

I could see her doing one single, but I can't see her doing none at all. And that one single would still be treated as a major push (assuming it's not a totally uncommercial album).

The actual reason Billie is doing the no-single stunt is because her latest era got bad PR due to the singles. They all tanked/caused controversy among her fans (for dumbass reasons like her hair colour) and made people lose hype over the album. Then it came out and still did incredibly well but the song that left a lasting impression (title-track) was dropped alongside it. So they probably figured this time it would be better to do no-singles. I think it's a good choice.

With Gaga it's completely different- it's good to get the word out that there's an album coming for more casual listeners that don't follow her closely. I think she'll do at least a lead single a few weeks before the album.

Yeah, she was seen having Italian in NYC, and not at JoTrat.

It's been nearly a month since she made that birthday post talking about MUSIC and how important this year will be and still crickets. Now she's in NY and still serving basement dweller. Lady Mirage... will we ever get something?

GGD moderator gave me a warning because I said "what about when Gaga carries on working with Richy" on a thread about Katy and Dr Luke.

I mean, we technically don't know if they're still working together other than a few assumptions like them following each other on socials, etc. It's not really apples to apples when Katy is confirmed to be working with Dr. Luke.

 

I'm choosing to believe in the delusion that she Laurianne'd him.

Is leaving $700 tips a standard thing of her?- I mean ddddd go off charitable queen.

 

Speaking of tips:
