Ya’ll would kill for Gaga to have Dua’s team. There's nothing wrong with payola per sé, it's just that at this point of Dua's career coming from several hits and a big era especially when it comes to streaming, I would expect her to have bigger numbers properly also for the payola behind it. Like she should pull 10 millions easily on a first single of the new era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not even brand new music/new projects to be leaked. I wasn't even expecting this, and I'm not even an ARTPOP hardcore lover but damn she 100% knows how much a big part of this fanbase is passionately fighting to show support and love to that project over the last decade. I'm not that involved to be pressed but I totally understand why some people are kind of sad about her just putting a link to buy those stuff as a 'celebration'.

Gabi Popster This Way 898 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 I'm pretty sure she leaked those photos and demos herself...just to give us something tbh it's not easy for gaga to just release "something", even if it's just one song there are lots of contracts to be signed and I do believe ACT II never went into recording, I hope she's already preparing her next album because this fanbase is turing into a Dua's fanclub. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaga Banana Popster This Way 603 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 (edited) The way Miley got 6 Grammy nominations after switching labels to Columbia, Plastic Hearts went N/A with Grammy noms under RCA. I think Flowers is the main reason behind it but random album track Thousand Miles being in PopDuo. Edited November 11, 2023 by Gaga Banana Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if she's going to get rich from a merch that's not going to sell that much anyway. If she really wanted money, she would have released ACT 2 or a couple of songs with different merch + other stuff to make fans really want to buy it. Gaga just doesn't want to relive that era in that way and that's fine since it was a very hard time for her back then. The merch could very well be Interscope doing stuff for it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I think her past manager has some credits over ARTPOP and she actually said to me on twitter many years ago that she doesn't want to deal with anything having to do with her past management.

I just expressed my feelings about people dragging having payola, when in fact there’s nothin wrong with it imo. The numbers are a totally different thing as you and BenG pointed out. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grammys have became like this nowadays, it's about popularity mostly, aside from few exceptions that somehow managed to enter in their circle like Jon Baptiste or HER, they're basically like VMAs these days, just look at the nominations this year more than ever, don't get me wrong, it's still nice to get a recognition from them, but they lost a lot of credibility, they reward pop artists only if they smash and rarely when they do something good in quality like Miley did with 'Plastic Hearts' but ignored with that project because she wasn't pulling big numbers or smashing.

lookwhatyoumademedo Popster This Way 962 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 The fact that she still cannot debut in the top 10 despite abysmally low points after a huge era and a monster smash hit with EltonNo star power. Those YouTube views are definitely bot-driven. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
