sursumd 44 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 They drag the album because its the popular thing to do. The era itself has not gone the way it should have but the ARTPOP album is fantastic and her performances this era have been some of the best of her short career.

Tropico 4,145 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Not at all, Artpop topped out at 700,000 in the US, that's horrendous. PRISM and Bangerz crossed Platinum with ease, PRISM will also cross 2x Platinum with ease. At this point in time she's no longer a platinum artist. You can bet her and her team will do everything in their power to fix that next era, or she's done as a pop star. You are ssoooooo dramatic omg You're to use to stanning for people who reach platnium with each album. You are blinded by the lux stan life. Just because this album doesn't do amazing that doesn't mean she's done as a pop star! Dude she will always be a pop star! People will always talk about her! Its not like she'll fall away because of 2 albums. 4 didn't do great and look at Bey now? And Mileys old albums flopped so hard and now look at her? She will get up from this. Lots of artist dream of what you call a flop. This is nothing bad nevermind considering the possiblity she's "done as a pop star" :sharon: ♢ Social Justice Enthusiast ♢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VforVendetta 2,024 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 :dead: I stopped reading there, sorry! Your problem. Well it's not ignorance I was just posting facts. I agree that Katy's ratios aren't good, but the post I quoted stated that Gaga's sales are on par, they aren't. I understand the sales match up with lack of single success/GP interest, and that's why if she doesn't turn it around next era she's done as a popstar Man you are overreacting.

Microscope 710 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 ARTPOP slays musically and the performances are flawless. That's enough for me. Take my hand. Stay, Joanne. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbuHassan1992 766 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 You know what I've noticed is that it's only people online besides the critics that shït on the album. Especially by the fame monster fans on this website and if you call them out on it they immediately call you delusional and stupid. It's fine that they don't like the album, but others do and they just can't seem to accept that. what's the point of calling them out on it? You can't seem to accept somebody favors her older work over her new Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean 97 0 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 The music in ARTPOP is pop music at its best. It's just that people are kind of over the whole dance/electropop thing and got tired of the album really fast. And there's also the "art" thing which cannot be found anywhere near the album. I agree w/ this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cas Winchester 195 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 what's the point of calling them out on it? You can't seem to accept somebody favors her older work over her new It seems I should've worded it better, but it also seems you didn't read my whole post. By calling them out I meant when they bring up sales and chart positions and compare the two based on that. Now read the last sentence in my post.

Nein 508 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 ARTPOP made me love Gaga and became a crazy fan, ARTPOP slays regardless of those charts :legend: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi 35 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Its simple, the album and era was a hot mess. Applause was great, amazing vid, amazing song, good US success. DWUW was the most appalling mess I'v ever witnessed in pop music. Maybe not even appalling, but disappointing? Great performances, Xtina collab, but no video, limiting gaga to a radio song that didnt get picked up properly, doing a collab with rick ross Gaga goes on her promo twitter rant thing for DWUW and doesnt even release the vid? lol okay Then we have G.U.Y, which was pushed insanely far back, with a mediocre video and like, no live performances? At all?! Nothing can stop gaga from doing some performances? I mean for Born This Way, Judas and TEOG we had HEAPS of live performances! Grammys, Ellen, MMVA, X factor, I mean even for you and I as well? The reason people are annoyed is because there is nothing happening. artRave is great and all but in terms of it being an excuse for doing no promo, its not moving ARTPOP or guy anywhere up the charts. and i dont even care about the charts, i just like seeing gaga do tv performances, props vocals and loads of cool things. Its just, dissapointing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juanjo 2,149 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I think the fact the ARTPOP era has been very messy definitely affected the way many fans feel about the album. I personally think ARTPOP is great and very special. Was I expecting more? Totally, but, at the same time, I was not disappointed. If the promo and management had been strong and consistent, the entire era would have been more enjoyable. The tour is flawless, though, and people are checking it out. I don't think we can ask for more, at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baubles 0 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 It's a solid pop album but Applause was not the correct choice for first single and the whole publicity campaign has just been very badly handled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blunt 0 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 The day that it leaked the site was crazy and there was a poll asking which album was Gaga's best and everyone said it was ARTPOP. I remember threads saying ARTPOP is better than TFM and everything. This album is really good, and sold decent, it's just that critics dragged it and it rubbed off to the fans as a "flop", what can Gaga do to prove it isn't a flop? DWUW as a second single sold 2m and Judas didn't even though it's flawless. When Gaga's next album drops everyone will probably say they miss the ARTPOP era just like they are doing now saying they miss the BTW era Let's appreciate ARTPOP :ARTPOP: because they are all stupid bastards . /thread.
