Lady Gaga, Britney Spears, Frank Ocean & Beyond: Looking Forward to the Rest of 2016 After a Huge First Half

Then there’s Gaga. The sales of 2013’s ARTPOP didn't match the commercial momentum she built over her previous projects, but she’s made some savvy decisions to revitalize herself. Collaborating with Tony Bennett on Cheek to Cheek endeared her to new fans; the Grammy and Academy Award-nominated “Till It Happens to You” raised awareness against sexual violence; she performed at the Oscars two years in a row; and at the Grammys, she tore through a medley of Bowie standards in tribute to her muse. If you’re feeling ready for Gaga’s proper follow-up to ARTPOP, you’re in luck: sources indicate that we can expect her new pop album during the fourth quarter of 2016 (reps for Gaga did not return Billboard's request for comment). Gaga and RedOne (who produced hits like “Just Dance” and “Poker Face”) are back in the studio together. Gaga’s also been photographed working with Mark Ronson and Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker, and has shared photos of herself with Ronson andFather John Misty and producer Emile Haynie. 

Gaga has endorsed Hillary Clinton for president and Perry has already performed at one of her rallies. With her status as the Democratic nominee secure, expect more musicians -- big and small -- to rally behind her as November gets closer and the threat of a Trump presidency approaches. The music industry traditionally skews Democrat, but 2016 feels even more dire. Social issues like gun violence and police brutality are being pushed to the forefront of the national conversation, and resistance to the Trump platform figures to drive musicians toward advocacy alongside their support of Clinton.

'Billboard doesn’t expect Perry’s next album to drop this year, though we have reason to be more hopeful for the other two.'

I'm still not convinced she's releasing anything anytime soon...we've been through this so many times...

ATTENTION: (bad) jokes and sarcasm are still a thing, so don't take everything I say literally. Thank you.

In the world of A-list pop veterans, Lady Gaga, Britney Spears and Katy Perry are all several years removed from studio solo albums. Billboard doesn’t expect Perry’s next album to drop this year, though we have reason to be more hopeful for the other two.

Britney Spears is on a bounce-back mission. Her last album, 2013’s Britney Jean, featured the top 20 single “Work Bitch,” though its sales (272,000 to date) are the lowest of any title in her catalog. If all goes well, Spears will be able to devote more time to promoting her next project, which we expect to get a taste of soon enough. Sources tell Billboard to expect a new Britney single this summer, leading toward her eventual ninth studio album.
