Dämon Posted October 11 Posted October 11 I feel like the effect of building up hype is a bit overrated, ngl. i don't think anyone except stans care about the teasing or the insta posts or whatever strategies people use nowadays. it's more about good placement on playlists, and I really don't see how the placement is impacted by the hype pre release 1
Edonis Posted October 11 Posted October 11 Just now, SweetOreosOfHeaven said: That's definitely the best case scenario but it depends on whether or not the music is a) brought to awareness and b) connects with that larger audience. This is why announcing 3 days in advance with little hype-building doesnt seem like a good plan... she could still announce this weekend or release on the 25th though. Agreed. She's been out of pop music for 4 years and lowkey even longer for pop culture. She needs to draw (positive) attention back to her when readying her solo release. Unfortunately, Joker wasn't what is should have been, but that doesn't necessarily spell a looking disaster, so long as enough interest is drummed up. 1

Uncatena Posted October 11 Posted October 11 so what are we expecting in terms of visuals? do we think she will have (partially) dark hair and maybe even a black and white theme? 1
FailSafe Posted October 11 Posted October 11 (edited) All it takes is for the lead to take off and smash. They should pick the most-catchy and commercial single off the album. The power of a smash lead is severely underestimated here. For example Espresso, it literally launched Sabrina to superstarsdom. And whether ATRL hates to admit it or not, Anti-Hero was the main reason why Taylor revitalized the enthusiasm of the GP for her music again. Edited October 11 by FailSafe

Take Billie, for example—she built up anticipation for about a month by teasing the release, sharing the tracklist, cover art, and more. The music itself was excellent, which definitely played a role, but she also generated buzz and engagement beyond just her core fanbase. Gaga is a veteran, and if they're aiming for widespread appeal, especially with newer generations, they should definitely put effort into hyping her comeback, imo. 3

duybeeGAshantiGA Posted October 11 Posted October 11 I think we can all agree that something between a traditional role out ala Katy Perry and DWAS would be the best. Not too long to create exhaustion which backfires (Katy) but not too short to not generate enough hype. Gaga needs to do something in between for the lead. So yeah 1 week min to 2 weeks max of hype may be ok.
