somnambulist 1,526 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 All i'm saying is what I expect from her this forthcoming era, but just because i'm not some dumb twink typing YASS in every thread y'all assume i'm whining when I'm literally doing what y'all are doing; discussing and stating my expectations, only I do them in a less stan & delulu manner. I say my comments from her career perspective and what I expect as a fan, y'all act as if she is friends with or likes any of y'all when irl she doesn't give a ****. None of us know her personally, so i don't see the point of me praising her for stuff that isn't praise worthy. The fact you have expectations of any artist is creating a scenario where you are bound to be disappointed regardless of what is made. She isn't McDonalds, she isn't adding extra pickles and holding off on mustard for you, she is creating whatever she wishes because she is an artist.

Else no one would dislike an album or era. And what does Mcdonald's have to do with it, if ur trying to say she doesn't do what people want her to do if her label says a song is **** or an album or concept is **** she HAS to start again, why do y'all think after she submitted ARTPOP in summer 2012 we never heard about it again for a while because her label didn't like what she put forward so she had to change it. She doesn't have as much control as people believe because on legality her label has the final say on what she puts out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She doesn't have as much control as people believe because on legality her label has the final say on what she puts out. You are completely missing my point. ARTPOP was panned by some fans and critics, and it didn't sell as much as her previous albums- yes- but that didn't stop her from going on tour, making the G.U.Y. video WITH HER OWN MONEY, promoting songs like Do What U Want, Applause, etc. And the kicker? She didn't have a manager through most of this. The era was messy because all her plans, from the app that was scrapped, to the promotion, to making videos for all the songs were all tied with previous management. Lady Gaga is no dummy, and if you've been paying attention- from the oscars, to U2, to getting engaged, to being casted on AHS, a very successful Cheek 2 Cheek tour, winning a Grammy, several ad campaigns etc., she is currently rebranding herself and gearing up for the next era. No she doesn't have complete free reign, but she has a HUGE amount of control. The other part of my point- which is where this started- is that you saw horns and immediately started mashing your keys to let the world know how much you hate her jazz direction, completely oblivious that horns can be used in multiple genres and that it has no indication of direction. You've already created a scenario in your head where if it's NOTHING BUT what you want, you will be disappointed, and that's not fair to any artist that is making music to create music.

I didn't exactly see the video and think "omg she's gonna do death metal" did I Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For someone who has lots of faves and loves Many genres of music, you certainly are over invested at this point of the album making process. Hasn't one of your many other faves put out some music that you can go enjoy, instead of obsessing over some artist who is one of many to you?

Hasn't one of your many other faves put out some music that you can go enjoy, instead of obsessing over some artist who is one of many to you? yes but gaga is my main fave and i've been a fan of hers since 2008 so obviously i'm gonna be interested in her the most, you don't have to have one fave to obsess over one of your many faves, and like I said I was PREVIOUSLY a stan but now i'm just a fan who's mainly interested in her music, fashion, performances, career progression and the possibilities of what she can create. Idc about her relationship with her fiance (unless it comes into song themes next era), if she's drinking starbucks or if she's being sued or any of that because it ain't my business nor concern. Now this little debacle is over because no matter what happens you're just gonna try be a smart arse so bye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBNLM 1,640 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 bandwagon? sis most people have hated her since BTW there's no bandwagon, I was a stan before but i grew up and stopped being delulu, y'all thinking just because I ain't a suicidal twink who claims she changed my life that I can't be a fan mess you are rude honey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Born Brave 2,072 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I'd like to point out that most of the fans wanted a thick heavy electropop banger for the last pop release, well, we got it and then everyone got upset that it semi-flopped lol. Be careful what you wish for I guess. And to be fair- I think ARTPOP got pulled in so many directions and we have documented statements that suggests as much. Interscope and Troy were wanting more pop and less art, Fans were wanting commercial success at all costs just so they could say Gaga was still able to "slay ur faves". ARTPOP was such a rush release too.. remember how she was trying to make deadlines and stuff until practically the very end on productions? I say this go around we owe it to Gaga for a little laissez faire. I trust her instincts and her craft Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
