The era was so messy after December 2013, no DWUW promo... failing sales, poor promo overall.. no management... no music video...

Not only that, but the album sounds so overproduced. Example: MANiCURE could have been Gaggie's best track ever (as seen in swinefest) but look what she did in the final; the instrumental sounds so cheap and the vocals sound so rushed... Swine was completely butchered, from being a heavy intense track to a cheap sounding song.

 

The highlighted paragraph you've written should not affect your judgment on the music and if you leave Gaga because of bad commercial performance, you are indeed acknowledging that you stan only for success, which is something a lot of people here regard as unhealthy.

Regarding ARTPOP's quality musically, it is subjective and I shall leave you to your opinion as I have mine. MANiCURE and Swine were okay in my opinion but the standout tracks are bold as fck to the extent I regard this album as a good one.

The numbers won't be a reason why I lose my interest in Gaga  I could lose interest and stop following her if there are a lack of singles and performances and stuff though  I mean at the end of the day if I love the music then yay great I'm happy, but I care a lot about music videos and performances too and if those aren't there enough then my interest would dwindle. I got into Gaga for her music videos and performances so they count a lot for me

Stan for success? You don't know me, who I am, or what I stan for. I have loved Gaga for so long since 2009 but she is so boring to me now, I've learned to like other music besides her. Art pop was not the best album she could have put out, and that's a fact. DWUW received poor promo, as did the album in general.

DWUW is a great track. But guess what? We got no MV, no promo, etc. And then GUY? With ABSOLUTELY NO PROMO. There are only a few good songs on the album like Applause and DWUW... the rest sound so overproduced and rushed. That's what I am referring to as "mess". And that is a giant mess. If LG5 turns out the same way, then she will lose me, as I've already stated.

As long as she delivers great music, epic music videos, flawless performances and she drops that annoying and pretentious artistic attitude during her interviews, I will keep stanning hard for her.

I don't follow her for her success but I want her to do whatever it takes to have a great and a well-planned era without drama and empty promises.

If she promotes the album properly to its full potential (many singles with great videos, many performances etc) then I wouldn't mind an underperformance. Sh!t happens. If it's another ARTPOP mess tho then I would definitely stop stanning for her.

In this scenario LG5 is a bigger mess than the ARTPOP era and the public turn on her for good. The music she delivers is also genuinely bad.

Would you still stan for Gaga? Would you support her through anything?

I really don't give a **** about her commercial success eitherway (I have never really understood the thrill people get watching a millionaire get even more richer) but I will stop if the quality of the work is extremely bad. That, and the lack of original release over the past few years as made me not care so much about whether she slays or not. 

Before I get the people coming at me like "BUT ARTPOP WAS AMAZING HOW DARE U CALL IT A MESS!!!11#TRIGGERED" I'm using it as a comparison for a discussion. 

Discuss, children!

 

All her work has been pretty good til now. What makes you think she will release a Bitch I'm Madone type of song?

This honestly. I wouldn't say I'd leave her if she didn't promote her music properly but that's what I currently expect from her.

I can accept her failing, but I can't accept her not trying. It's okay Marry the Night underperformed slightly, because at the very least we knew she had put her effort into the single. But G.U.Y. could have done so much better if she promoted it properly. She basically performed it only once on television and the rest were artRAVE performances.

[joshdemoravia 111]

is that even a question, im with her until the end 

[Fiona Apple 13,006]

If the music was bad,I would unstan for a while.If it flops but the music is good I wouldn't really care

Exactly.

I would accept another underperformance but i wouldn't accept another ARTPOP mess for whatever reason.

God she's gonna lose so many fans if she doesn't deliver a well-planned era this time

[LoveandMagic 1,731]

If the music itself is bad, then I wouldn't buy the album. I wouldn't stop disliking her though. If the next album is the same way,or just not my cup of tea, she would no longer be one of my favorite mainstream acts but I would still recognize her as being a very talented performer, writer, and vocalist. But she may do other things I enjoy, so I would still support her there. I won't hate her just because she releases something I don't care for. 

As far as profits, charting, and filling seats goes, I couldn't give a toss. It's fun when the numbers are big, but doesn't contribute one iota toward the quality of the music itself. 

Of course, just because I don't like something, or am not necessarily feeling it, doesn't automatically make it a failure or of bad quality. 

[Glamourpuss 29,062]

I will always support her and stand by her. She changed my life. I wouldn't be the person I am today or even alive if Gaga hadn't existed. I'm not going to give up on her just because one album isn't to my taste. I didn't like ARTPOP but I still went to 3 Artraves and bought ARTPOP zone for one. I do wish I'd had the opportunity to meet her at a time when I was slayed by the music but it doesn't matter. 

But I always had faith in Gaga. I have always known that her best is yet to come. ARTPOP wasn't her best in my opinion but LG5 is going to blow us all away. I know it. 

[RAMROD 109,355]

Always. She is not seasonal for me.

I may not always agree with her ideas, say the THINK campaign, but musically I'll always love her. Always.
