SISTERV 3,887 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Her music hasn't lived up to her hype. You can't have the media regarding you as "the next Mariah Carey" aka the female with more number ones than any female.....and then deliver Focus....and then an OK song like Dangerous Woman. Your music has to be epic. Vocally. Relatable. Consistently. For multiple albums. She talks about the same **** every album and doesn't really get people hyped for her videos either because they aren't creative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher 2,406 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Honestly I think that donut licking situation had an impact it was all over the place. Finally feeling free for the night, I got no worries. Finally got a claim on my life, baby, c'est la vie. ☄️ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People were expecting wonders of her, and when it was released, it received mixed reviews and even backlash (donutgate / religion). Both tried to replicate another song's success. Although TEOG was a success, it would have done much better as second single, or without Judas backlash. Same for DW. Ari wont recover till she falls completely aka ARTPOP. That's how pop culture works. I really think no matter what Gaga would have struggled with the second single. By the tail end of BTW, people were kind of sick of her and that was regardless of the single. BTW was EVERYWHERE but it isn't a strong enough song like Bad Romance or Poker Face to warrant that much play. Plus, she was talking and doing some weird **** around then that turned people off. I think Judas was just the push that made everything topple. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Focus was simply Problem Lite. It was more of the same but less catchy. Although I agree with you that Ariana needs to fail, or disappear for a while, before attempting a comeback.

Still, TEOG was a worldwide hit, and it was something new and fresh from Gaga. The GP was there for that Gaga. Maybe Judas would have worked as the 3rd single, idk...

Koreku 2,387 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Focus destroyed her momentum. I don't know what her label was thinking. You don't deserve a point of view if the only thing you see is you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Releasing that song on easter, with that video was like screaming for backlash and controversy. And she succeded it was not different imo; the same strategy of Alejandro and the same song structure of Bad Romance... Focus suffered the same fate!

Iwontell 7,312 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I voted "Selena ended ha", for dramatic purposes... (but I don't think she's "declining", tbh...)

Well, DW seemed like a good idea at first, & it really did sound catchy & really nice to listen to too when it was first released, but after awhile you kinda start to get used to it & it gets a bit boring to listen to it sadly I think she should've gone with a more upbeat & catchier lead single with a good MV attached to it.

Babel 41,430 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Her music is not that special or groundbreaking. Break Free was cute but that's all about it. I think she needs to find her own sound and drop the sexual but cute persona because it's not working for her. She has talent (not to be the next Mariah Carey, obviously but a lot more than the average singer in the industry) so I hope everything works for her.
