Naufri 7,424 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Even with me not beinga big fan of Prism, and admiting that the Katy's team is extremely good, there's no way an album like TD would have not succeed. You can say what you want, but the first three singles of that album are pure gold. Good songs always win. Saying Katy's team turned **** into gold is extremely wrong. Bobby is amazing, and he's been doing an amazing work, he has a very good prime material to work, but he started with Gaga in the worst scenario and help her to turn the situation 180 degrees.

ModernEcstasy 8,998 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Is this a joke? Bobby is doing a fantastic job. She's everywhere right now and hasn't even released new material yet. Her reputation has definitely improved with the GP since 2013. She's in a great position at the moment, so no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was Gaga's talent. And what would a lesser manager have done? Pass on the opportunities? Er no, think again. Bobby was definitely involved in securing her in AHS, the GRAMMYs, the Super Bowl, etc. It's all his doing, her talent definitely helped her land those spots but he would have been a MAJOR player in actually making it happen.

Denys 848 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I agree with everything and I'll like to add that Gaga needs to stop being sweet and cozy with her team, this people at the end of the day are not friends it's all about business, think of it if she wasn't this talented they will only call her once in a while to say hi, everybody is working for the cash! She needs to grow a firm hand like Beyoncé actually but Bobby has started off on a good foot so let's give him a chance. She also needs to fire all this mediocre choreographers around her and get people that will push her to push her self further than what she is doing.

Zilla 13,384 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 But to be fair, Bobby came in in the middle of chaos so we haven't seen him for an entire album cycle. Plus, he was part of Troy's management company as a chief marketing officer for 3 years so you can't tell me he hasn't seen some **** and can't manage an artist. He's also been with Interscope as a marketing person so he knows his way around. I severely doubt that she would trust anyone with that so-called "professional" quality you claim that the Haus doesn't have right now, because we all saw what happened with Troy. She won't become the stereotypical "media puppet" again because it was the thing that almost killed her/her spirit. I feel like fans want to push her to those extremes again but in reality, look at all the stuff she's been doing. How much more do you really want from her? Do you want her to break down again because you're not satisfied? Bobby and the Haus are doing a great job. Everyone is a good place, why rock the boat? 𝙸'𝚖 𝚊 𝚓𝚘𝚛𝚝𝚜 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚓𝚎𝚕𝚕𝚢 𝚜𝚑𝚘𝚎𝚜 𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚍 𝚘𝚏 𝚐𝚒𝚛𝚕.

giskardsb 12,565 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I feel like a lot of people are fans of "Lady Gaga", the pop brand, more than they are of Stefani Germanotta, the eccentric and wildly talented musician/actress/theatre kid that is underneath the whole thing. People really don't want to look behind the Aura. "I don't want to be part of the machine, I want the machine to be part of me." - Lady Gaga People need to change their conception of what it means to be a pop star. People need to quit using all the standard measurables people use when describing pop stars as products. People need to quit using the same things the measure her against other artists, or looking for ammo in stan-wars. People need to start celebrating that Gaga is her own individual, with her own goals, and recognize that watching an actual artist find her own boundaries and stretch her limits, and inspire others to do the same, is a much better reason to "stan" for someone than how many #1's they get or how much money a tour makes or their position on Forbes. Be proud that you are a fan of a fiercely independent woman doing her own thing, and just laugh off anyone who think's their fav is "superior" because of some industry accounting number. We know, or should know, that art and music is about so much more than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEANGT 5,271 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 idk what you mean since we haven't seen an album cycle with her current management team. You seem to think the last two years have been 100% Gaga which I can see I guess. This thread is premature imo. Wait until next year to judge the management of LG5.

narcoswing 1,129 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 16 hours ago, Jakob Liam Kristensen said: You may call Taylor Swift greedy, and I tend to agree, but there's no arguing her management has been doing a fantastic job preserving her own best interest. Her record sales have a lot to do with the way her team have consistently cracked down on copyright infringement. On the other hand, the entire discography of Gaga can be found on any streaming site in the world, and no one at her label seems to care. As streaming becomes increasing dominant, the lack of action on Gaga's part is simply not smart. The difference is, Gaga doesn't care about money. She wants her music to be heard by everyone, and she's said many times she would put her music out for free if she could. 16 hours ago, Jakob Liam Kristensen said: You want to know why someone as basic as Katy has been doing so much better than Gaga commercially? Because her team has made every right decision they could possibly make and has made most of Katy's limited skill set. Sure, you can say Katy is nothing but a manufactured pop product, but the point is her team has managed to turn **** into gold and produce a highly successful product. If they can do that with Katy's dire talent, imagine what they can do with Gaga's skill set. On a set note, my resentment for Gaga's team escalated when I watched the lyric videos of Roar and Applause back to back. What the **** was that? Because her music is for the general public. Gaga does what she wants, which you probably should know of 8 years into her career. And what's wrong with the Applause lyric video? Don't even dare coming for them queens girl. Let me also remind you that that video was released in 2013, a few months before she changed her management, so if there would even be anything wrong with it, it wouldn't apply in this situation. 16 hours ago, Jakob Liam Kristensen said: And of course there's Beyonce. Who would have expected that she could pull off a 900k opening week after 4? This woman bounces back from failures like they never happened, sometimes even within the same era. Monsters like to say how critics hold Gaga to such high standards, but can't the same thing be said about Beyonce? Everyone goes apeshit over whatever she puts out even when it's total ****, and yet she never suffers from the critical backlash Gaga has had to deal with when the material is remotely subpar. Beyoncé is seen as a goddess, where as Gaga has always been a freak in the public eye. That's why, and guess who has played a big part in erasing that stereotype? Bobby.

gagafan2017 103 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 My issue is STREAMING and SOCIAL MEDIA are the two the most important things for a modern popstar on a major label in 2016 and he has done absolutely nothing to improve her streaming or encourage her to be more prolific on social media. Bobby is a good PR man...and great at branding and image moulding...but I see no evidence of a good major pop star manager. He'd be a good manager for an actress...popstar don't see it. Gaga's only works as a top level star when shes being heavily micro managed we saw that with the way things collapsed when her and troy clashed in 2013. Oh and she needs someone thats entire job is watching itunes, sales and streaming sites...katy and taylor both have someone that does it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, I think this could just be fixed by hiring additional people, and not necessarily having to get a new management team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagafan2017 103 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Over the past year in the lead up to the new album she should have been doing things like this: do a live session for applemusic radio give spotify a free unreleased track (she has loads...but shes over controlling over her material) put a video of her singing acapella on youtube and make it go viral snap twice a week instagram a few times a week interact with other people on twitter and show your human side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
