Gaga needs to stop being afraid of flopping


Pop

Featured Posts

Ever since ARTPOP was dragged for flopping, Gaga already scrapped two musical projects that we know of.

ARTPOP Act II

and LG5 (Redone version)

All this waiting and insecurity is surely fueled by her need to prove that she isn't a "flop". 

In my opinion, this was a wrong move that just adds more pressure to the whole thing.

She should've just kept chugging out music after ARTPOP and not cared if it sold or not. It would make people stop obsessively checking her chart runs and maybe even focus on the music for one.

She says she's music not the bling, but I don't see it. Girl needs to stop being afraid.

Just like another user here said, she lost it. I remember back in 2009-2011 when she was confident in her work. Now she's just scared of releasing ANYTHING by herself. Gaga is not the same ambitious person I remember.

maybe the fans needs to stop being afraid of flopping instead...

One in every ten threads made on this site is telling Gaga what to do in order to secure a successful/safe route in her career. At this point, I doubt she could care less and is just doing whatever she wants really.

Girl definitely has anxiety issues and lack of confidence these days.

I want to see that Gaga back who took risks and did not bother about the consequences, not this timid girl she has become.

 

I want her to be that girl who led the pack

The irony when "she lost it" because of fans who dismissed her work and who treated her like **** during 2013-2014. :toofunny:

She lost her ambition because fans and other fanbases alike dragged her to the pits of hell, so yeah, don't tell me it didn't affect her creatively, because it totally did and this was a VERY big jab in her creativity and self esteem. She used to be fearless, but it takes time to heal. No wonder why she stopped interacting with her fans, they're so ungrateful and forget she's human.

I'm lost rn, I just don't even know anymore :rip: In Austin 2014 she said she doesn't release the several finished (!) volumes (!) of music she's made throughout her career up to this point because she doesn't want to see them become a plaything for the music industry like her other albums do.

While at first I thought that was admirable to admit, then I stopped and wondered if it was really that impressive, because that begs the question if she really feels so strongly about the music she ends up releasing :flop: Is she releasing what she doesn't consider to be her best music? Then why bother being a releasing artist? For money? Many fans consider that interview to be proof of her artistic integrity - I personally think she contradicts herself so dramatically in there it's actually proof of the possibility of the opposite..

So I agree with this: "She should've just kept chugging out music after ARTPOP and not cared if it sold or not." She gives very mixed signals.  It's kind of exhausting at this point, esp. because we need to endure "This is really me being happy and I've delivered my best, most genuine art for this album!" every era, after which we need to hear she actually wasn't happy and her best **** is still to come. For the first three times it was ok, but now I'm wondering if it's part of a promo design.

She made the mistake of thinking that she was untouchable; nobody's untouchable in pop music. One bad album was enough to send her into a nosedive and now the public is very rapidly losing interest.

If LG5 is nothing short of perfection, she better get real comfortable peddling her albums of Jazz karaoke on QVC.

No she's not afraid of anything!! For the love of God she didn't want to appear too desperate by releasing act two and maybe she wasn't happy with the work with redone because she wants to show other sides. If anything she has been more fierce after ARTPOP's under performance, daring to go where other pop girls won't. 

Truth is you guys pressure her more than the media + her immediate management and interscope.

Well the point is kind of valid. The longer she waits to release LG5, the more she loses her relevance.

 

i guess that explains C3C :shrug:

I'm cackling. She's a household name and whatever she does is relevant. :toofunny: 

2015 and early 2016 helped a lot to strengthen her image.

The more she waits, the more we wonder.

Right???

She is antifragile.

She is merely waiting for the disaster that is KP4 to whither without a trace.
