Lol but managers are businessmen (and women). She makes the music, he handles the business. If her music isn't going to sell, that's bad for business.

 

Clearly her vision and his vision didn't meet eye to eye which is ultimately what caused the split so I'm glad she found someone who is more aligned with her objective. But if Bobby isn't in it to help her be successful, then he's just going to be another problem. That's how the music business works. Don't be naive.

Troy isn't a vocalist, songwriter, or producer. He was responsible for the business side of things, not the music side. Music choices fall under the direction of the record label, who actually has music professionals on staff, in cooperation with the artist. Thats how the music business works.

I am so glad as a fan G.U.Y. got it's chance to shine, but with hindsight being 20/20 - Gypsy would have been the best choice for success and we all know it.  :blehga:

Bobby is brilliant. He was the main factor behind BTW and TFM doing as well as they did. He is as forward thinking with the marketing as Gaga is with the music and performance.

 

Now with Artist Nation behind them - they will want a huge album which leads to a huge tour which means big money - the sky is really the limit.

There were more interviews on TV (GMA, E!News), interviews on radio (I don't remember the acurate number but I think there were like 5), G.U.Y. hotel, banners... they also premiered the behing the scenes on tv before the video premier, the video was premiered on TV... I mean.

I won't claim these as effective promotions but wow you reminded me something from G.U.Y., all I could recall was David Letterman performance (which ain't even a one of a kind G.U.Y. performance).

 

Btw the G.U.Y. Hotel seemed really cool, though it was pretty useless in promoting.

Okay, many have been praising Bobby's performance, can someone specifically list out the things that he had done for Gaga? Besides the GMA album announcement what had he done so far? I mean the studio videos of the two singles from C2C are not "good promotion" right? They barely gained 3 million views in total nor did they sell. Or maybe the sudden release of Anything Goes and ICGYABL, album covers, single covers, studio videos, tracklist is a promotion strategy that I have not recognized yet? :coffee:  :coffee: 

 

Btw, how come no one mentions Michael Silas (to me he looks better than Jeremy Hudson) which looks so much like him?

Receipts please

Here is the original exclusive report on Gaga and troy's split 

 

http://www.showbiz411.com/2013/11/04/exclusive-lady-gaga-and-manager-splitting

 

 

I am told by friends that Carter was cut out of the ARTPOP album campaign. and that Gaga has refused advice. “She doesn’t take direction anymore,†a source told me

When this was confirmed several reputable outlets picked up on the story:

 

http://www.billboard.com/biz/articles/news/legal-and-management/5778189/lady-gaga-manager-troy-carter-split

 

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/06/business/media/lady-gaga-said-to-fire-her-manager.html?_r=0

http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/lady-gaga-splits-from-troy-carter-manager-who-made-her-a-star-20131105

 

http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/videos/lady-gaga-fires-manager-report/

 

This happened just days before ARTPOP released

 

also: 

 

 

Lady Gaga parted ways with her previous manager Troy Carter and his Atom Factory firm last November. Campbell, who worked with Gaga at Atom Factory, stayed with the artist after her split with Carter. He assumed management duties at the time and will continue to manage Gaga moving forward.

Clearly Troy was not involved, and it was Bobby who handled everything from that point forward

Stop hating on (Gaga and) Bobby

 

You can't do that much big things in terms of promo without a management division

 

Gaga was under Atom Factory when she was with Troy (November 2013), and, when Bobby became her manager, she wasn't under management division. They joined Artist ( Live) Nation in June, and since then they are able to do bigger and bigger promos. Also, the Applause GMA premiere was Troy's work.

 

Stop hating on management, it isn't easy

You (And other people) think that you would be the best manager, but in reality, you wouldn't be able to manage Gaga (or any artist) for a week.

 

Also, you can't except much from a Jazz song / album

In the 1940's (Around that time) it would have slayed, but, people now usually don't listen to jazz

I like dancin', and ponies....

fake she split with him cause she didn't want the DWUW release.

 

Your argument isn't even logical. I simply stated when she split from Troy and you're telling me why

 

....and no, it's not 'fake' . It's a fact she parted ways with Troy just days before ARTPOP released. Whatever the reason for that may be.
