Khal Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Seduce Orlando and run away with the money. It's easier and more plausible than the OP's objective, I'm not Jesus. 6

hallucinate Posted August 10 Posted August 10 (edited) pick which song gets the most acclaim after the album release then buy some tik tok and youtube shorts payola Edited August 10 by hallucinate
TMRA Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Apologize for Dr Luke. Stop being cringe. Go back to old days, and no I dont mean TD. Rockish pop influenced songs like OOTB.

TaylorsSquad Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Imagine thinking Katy cares about her career. She needs a folklore moment not nostalgia bait. 4
Pop_Music_Lover Posted August 10 Posted August 10 (edited) I'm tempted to answer, because this is a question I've been asking to myself a lot (not only katy-wise) but I'm not sure I should answer here cause I fear my ideas are too good and specific that I want to tell her in person HAHAHAH Edited August 10 by Pop_Music_Lover

terrorblade Posted August 10 Posted August 10 tbh she's just missing Bonnie but i'd recruit Max & Cirkut/Savan/Ilya as well
GipJo Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Apologize and take down every song she had with L*ke in 143. Write or hire someone competent to write some mature deep and true-to-life songs about family and mothership. debut this album with minimum promo and natural image, let it speak for itself. 2
BrokenMachine Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Just like her team has been doing for years, I would do nothing and run away with the money 1
Truth Teller Posted August 10 Posted August 10 I think the damage is done but an UNDENIABLE power pop ballad might do something for her. She needs a "Who Knew", a "Because of You". Or (more far fetched) a "Don't Speak". Put it on a movie soundtrack and maybe it will pop. This sound is what she should be chasing anyway, I don't know why she's been walking in and out of the EDM / dance lane for 8 years. Like yeah it got you those 800 vinyl sales in Brazil, now what? So yeah big pop ballad. She's damaged her clout so much that nothing else could work. She doesn't even have the option of dusting off her guitar and picking up where Thinking Of You left off, it won't work after "sexy confiDENT, so intelliGENT". Even Ed Sheeran couldn't pull off the revert move after his collab sell-out era and he actually had an established reputation as a singer-songwriter. A big pop ballad is all there is left 7 1
aotwbys Posted August 10 Posted August 10 If I was with Capitol Records, and this album underperformed, here's what I'd do: debut 143, consider delaying the tour. Then, during an awards show performance, drop hints about a singer-songwriter-pop album sometime in Q3 2025. If that one does well, go ahead with a tour featuring both the new album and 143. If they're still committed to 143 and have additional music that appeals more to listeners, a Taylor-Swift-style Midnights 3AM streaming only version of the album could spark so much drama—especially if it dropped right around the time Reputation (Taylor's Version) came out. Might as well milk it but Capitol probably wouldn't do that lol. but I would. I'd definitely reach out to Zedd. He gave love to NRO even after the Woman's World fallout (he posted it on his IG story a week after WW came out), so maybe he's still game to work with Katy. I'd consider dropping a Smile-style droplet single (NRO 2.0) to see if people really want an acoustic or pop sound from Katy, or if they're completely done with her. Basically, testing the waters before committing to a whole album. Whoever she chooses to collaborate with, I'm a bit skeptical about the "just call up Dan Nigro/Max Martin/etc." approach. Those guys are probably getting hit up by everyone. The key here is to avoid making songs that feel overly TikTok-ified. Listeners don't want that from her. But if she can snag someone super hot like Dan Nigro, then yeah, go for it. If this album turns out to be a massive flop, they could still move forward with the tour and make a documentary (filmed while on tour) covering everything. This would give her a chance to address the situation, rebuild her image, and introduce fans to new music. 1

Daddy Posted August 10 Posted August 10 I would make her the biggest OnlyFans creator and sell her catalogue for a couple of millions. I would recommend her to get Orlando into gay p0rn. 1 4 1
Iceland Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Cut her hair and make her go blonde again Just in case my rebrand flops and I need something to blame 1
Technicolor Posted August 10 Posted August 10 At this point her career is beyond over comercially speaking, maybe she can try rebranding as a more serious artist with songs like Cup Of Coffee, TOY etc.. and get some acclaim
Aethereal Posted August 10 Posted August 10 (edited) It'd be a waste of money on her part however there is always a sliver chance of luck for her to pull a Cher. But it's 99.9% unlikely. Edited August 10 by Aethereal
Riverbank Posted August 10 Posted August 10 I also don't know who wants an acoustic singer-songwriter album from... Katy Perry That's gonna perform even worse than her last streak of bombs, and probably critically panned as well if "sexy confident" is the best songwriting she has to offer at this point. She does NOT have the songwriting chops for it and nobody would check for that except for the 4 or 5 OOTB stans left. All she had to do was take advantage of Dua leaving her FN writing camps and book some sessions with them, secure some Max Martin, Ian Kirkpatrick and Stuart Price scraps for good measure and stay away from people with court records. She could've easily nailed this diva dance album she's desperately trying to sell if she only had the right people and marketing approach (and common sense) for it. But alas, she seems to enjoy inviting lashings and pannings to herself instead.
Vespertine Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Sell her pre-Witness publishing rights to Hipgnosis and tell her to retire.
Cry Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Would probably have her take guitar lessons again and then to play some acoustic versions of her demos. Image wise she'd have a more simple and relaxed look instead of extravagant. Maybe that way she can (re)build her fanbase. Using some budget for TikTok to have some popular / semi-popular users there to promote her reels of herself playing on guitar and singing snippets of songs from an upcoming acoustic / stripped down album.
