base talk Will Gaga get a solo hit before this decade ends?

[smartalek22]

It is certainly possible, with the right song at the right time.

 

The question is if it happens, is it gonna be a song her old time fans will actually enjoy.

[prézli]

lol

[Kaykay]

Interscope doesn't really promote radio for their artists well even for their big names like Gaga so unless she secures a very good song that is Gaga and somewhat agrees to the GP then she may not be able to compete 🙂‍↕️

[Shoful]

As long as she serves quality like Disease who gives a ****

[TouchinFree]

I love gags God knows I do. But let's be realistic. She has officially entered the solo hit difficulty stage joining other popstars. But she isn't/ never will enter Xtina collab territory though. 

 

Unless dark electro pop makes a comeback out the blue. 

[Yes, AND]

It has been decided, if Gaga gets a solo hit 22+ years into her career, she'll have surpassed Madonna! Can't wait to find out, Gaga has SO MANY more years/decades of releasing music, so exciting     I know OGH will be PERCHED too! 

 

Also love how the 30+ years!!!!! is finally put to bed hihi. 22 years it is! And it wasn't even constant dominance either, as Madonna flopped multiple times before 2005 especially in the 90s. But anyway.. THE Lady Gaga will succeed SOLO and with COLLABS many more times in her career, things are looking very bright, she is gonna be turning 39 this year, she has so much time, I can see her releasing some more big ballads in her 40s and if that happens OGH should truly hide   

 

Since we're playing the IF game and imaginary scenarios, we would never know what owuld happen if Gaga spent an entire year releasing droplet singles with music videos and promo and playlisting and then added the most successful ones to her album a year later. Katy released like 7 singles in 2019-2020 before smile came out and that's not including Daisies. Gaga's The Cure (one of her only droplets) is bigger than 95% of Katy's droplets so we never know what would happen if Gaga released 7 in one year, but cutei imaginary scenario sis    

This literal lie. Katy put HIH on the album when it had like 5k streams. It went viral MUCH later. The only singles were NRO and ST which received promo, the others werent singles and where exactly are the 7 lol? Small talk isnt even on the album on streaming. The only two earlier pre release songs on streaming are NRO and HIH.  Do some research next time.

This thread really popped off, wow. 

I don't get the obsession with solo hit or duet hit. A hit is a hit  

 

I don't belittle success of artists when they collaborate wtf. Y'all are

 

Gaga particularly, brings out the best in artists I feel like. Her energy in her collabs really make the song resonate with many. Also, (coming from a Gaga stan myself) a lot of her solo material isn't exactly mainstream material, at least since ARTPOP.

The obvious question is, if it's so easy to get a hit collaboration, why can't some people do it? As you said, a hit is a hit, some have them some don't.

If I look at Disease's chart performance, the answer is clearly NO
 

This is funny bc Million Reasons and Always Remember Us This Way are bigger solo hits than anything Beyonce has done since the Bush administration

Every time Gaga is at the top, you'll see threads with endless pages discussing how much of a flop she is. It is comical at this point. 
 

Die With A Smile is going #1 next week and nothing can change this fact anymore. Lady Gaga is getting her sixth #1 in less than a week. 
 

Also, yes, of course she can get another solo hit if she wants to. The question should be, if she cares to get another one. 

This spill

Disease would have likely gone top 10 had they released physicals on week 1 idk why they never did, I'm not saying it would have been a massive hit after week 1 it would have followed same trajectory as now but another SL nonetheless. She's also had Bloody Mary, ARUTW this decade but I kinda love seeing OGHs come up with these narratives. 15 pages of them yapping so you know their fuming.

[Soda Pop Queen]

I hope so, mainly so y'all can STFU. Y'all doing the same dumb **** with her that y'all did with Beyoncé all throughout the '10s. 

 

ATRL needs to get over their convenient aversion to collaborations and features because a hit is a damn hit.

 

No reason this thread should be 15 pages because y'all goofies want to get into chart technicalities

I'd say it's funny because it causes people to make nonsense statements like yours, pretending they're true.
