What is the correlation with this tweet since it is about Dua ? 

The correlation is that we're on a Gaga forum. Additionally, if 4 #1s for Dua are insane, 6 #1s for Gaga are out of this world

I was talking about my post and there was no correlation at all with Gaga but whatever floats your boat 

Dua - 6 years in the music industry 

Gaga - 15 years in the music industry 

6 years after her debut Gaga has 4 #1s in the UK so yes insane for Dua 

[BenG]

Didn’t Gaga get 4 #1 UK hits in less than 2 years after debut? With a strike rate of 4/6.

Does it really matter if its a day early?

Does it really matter if it’s a year early?

Fact remains that it hasn’t officially crossed.

And the we woke up 

Without bundles this time she won't do more than 150-200k

Chromatica did 69k streaming units with trendy collabs and from ASIB hype, we can expect something between 50k-100k streaming and the rest will depend on pure

[little legend]

Dua Lipa is the biggest pop stat of all time. 

She is 100000000 times bigger than Taylor, Gaga and Madonna combined. 

It's insane

apart from how horrid it was at the time the debut week was a serve. It felt like i was in high school again seeing these dance Gaga songs smash (for two weeks hihi). And UK radio spinning free woman and 1k doves.

I'd be interested to see for LG7. Chromatica was packaged uniquely, the return to dance-pop (the genre her core base was starbed off), the collabs, coming off ASIB hype. Ultimately, i just want her best work yet

Yeah she had the bundles (which were not big at all too) but she also released Chromatica during the worst possible time, in a week where some shops had to stop aswell. I think 250k is possible for LG7 and even more if she's going to do a proper promotion for it.

If Gaga isn't 100% in the mood for a reissue of this album, they can keep it. Enough of the lame re-releases like the Born This Way one.

She's clearly not in music mode like at all right now. I can't believe some people were still about Act II being a thing in 2023. DJWS and the hardcore ARTPOP fans should let it go asap.

Even if she was still in releasing music mode, revisiting ARTPOP is probably the least likely thing that could ever happen in her career anyway.

Million Dollar Bill and I Look To You versatile legend... Hopefully LG7 is not just music for old people, screaming, or really soulless cheap beats music like diamonds and dollarsfloor or w.e.

 

@corvus albus corvid sweetie you can sad react but did you ever listen to that album or want to go back to it after a week of release

and what makes hours an acceptable threshold for lying, instead of months?

Wow...

What was potentially a few hours early. Doesn't seem like a big  deal to me, not enough to call the people celebrating liars. But if you want to keep calling them liars, go ahead. God forbid anybody reads anything positive on this forum.
