Adarsh A Popster Is Born 13,394 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Yeah Gaga has never been a radio darling. Even flop songs by other pop girls got more airplay than Bad Romance. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrasher Popstanne 8,166 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 I think US radio is still pretty open to Gaga when it comes to brand new releases lately, the amount of adds for HMH weren’t taken for granted (I don’t think for Katy’s latest singles the situation was the same despite her being a radio juggernaut back then) The problem is when the listeners response comes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume it just sounds like one, because if she actually admitted it to be, it'd be disqualified from both the Grammys (BSWVM) + Oscars (BOS). @HoldMyOreosGaga's team should continue to prioritize US Radio as much as they are now. (rest isn't directed at you; you mentioned Radio + Taylor's "smash" driven 99% by her fans) Contrary to fan-fic, Gaga's NEVER been a Radio darling. AI for her hits is pathetic vs. Katy (see spoiler); she collected hits / legend status w/ catchy, radio-friendly hooks + fashion + iconic visuals + perfs. It's sad to see fans call HMH a flop when it has enough success across Radio (3rd Top 10 on AC, Top 20/15 on Pop/HAC) + Sales + Streams (great YT, solid AM, consistent ~1M Spotify) to have a better/similar run as SL, ARUTW, Judas, INLA, PI. I'm for all for LG music reaching its potential, but I'll be a fan regardless if HMH misses an arbitrary milestone like 100 on WW Spotify. It's not like LM brag about Dope (#8) / Hair (#12) as "GP hits." Just like convos re: iTunes aged poorly in 10 yrs, the obsession over Spotify #s / positions will also age. It's already nonsensical w/ growth in users, allowing > streams / user, etc. For all its faults, BB100 lets us see cross-channel performance, and from that POV, HMH's done well reaching a variety of demos. Gaga (TF > DWUW) vs. Katy (TD + Roar) AI comparisons: Reveal hidden contents Applause: 130.754m Bad Romance: 118.946m Applause: 117.111m Poker Face: 117.042m Born This Way: 109.827m The Edge Of Glory: 106.169m Paparazzi: 104.897m Just Dance: 104.084 Telephone: 92.780m DWUW: 92.025m LoveGame: 88.868m Alejandro: 81.988m You and I: 65.121m Roar - 197.757m Wide Awake - 164.929m E.T. - 151.829m Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) - 147.716m California Gurls - 144.071m Firework - 146.659m Teenage Dream - 128.832m Part Of Me - 127.492m The One That Got Away - 123.835m I genuinely think F+E gained Taylor Swift a lot of new fans and respect. I think for Gaga it would be interesting to see what a more challenging era in terms of sound would sound like, with her lead being the best track vs. the most accessible track (that's basically what I mean by saying she shouldn't cater to radio).

It's an almost guaranteed return on investment. You don't have that with any other pop girl currently. Why do people pretend they know the financial back-end involved with turning a "Levitating" into a hit? Like, great for Warner and Dua if releasing 1. Solo Single, 2. Remix w/ Madonna, Missy Elliott, 3. Remix w/ DaBaby, 4. Scramble to go back to the Solo ... over 2 years worked out, but that certainly wasn't organic, nor is it a treatment given to any other Pop release for a fair comparison. Future Nostalgia alone had: 11-track LP with 6 singles + 1 promo single. Several reissues that provided new/remixed singles with the likes of Angele and DaBaby. Remix album with BLACKPINK, Missy Elliot, Gwen Stefani, Madonna. 8-track EP with DaBaby, Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Miley Cyrus, and JID. 2 US Top 10 hits in an era with ~10 singles is not that impressive. It took a LOT of work to get a hit after DSN, and given the amount of singles / MVs / collabs released after Levitating, the only other Top 10 she's had came from an EJ Remix where she sang the Rocketman chorus. This type of rollout is comparable to who else, exactly? DSN: #2 Physical: #60 Break My Heart: #13 Hallucinate: N/A Un Dia (w/ Bad Bunny, J Balvin): #63 Levitating (Solo; +Madonna, Missy Elliot; +DaBaby): #2 Fever (w/ Angele): N/A Prisoner (w/ Miley Cyrus): #54 We're Good: #31 Love Again: #41 Sweetest Pie (w/ MTS): #15 Cold Heart (w/ EJ); #7 Potion (w/ Calvin Harris): #71 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OreoÀDeux Pronounshe/him Popster for Sale 44,632 Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Comparing any female artists spotifys stats with Taylor will make them look like a flop. Lover is doing more than WWAFAWDWG, for instance. Taylor is doubling Ariana, Doja, Billie in streams. It's a different beast entirely. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
