whatever happens I'll try and make the best of it and continue to love and support ha!

but yeah if it's ARTPOP 2,0 then idk... we'll just have to wait and see.

Let's imagine for a second that Gaga releases LG5 and it doesn't meet your expectations at all. The album is filled with Uptown Funks and Dopes, none of the singles chart higher than #28, and it only sells 30,000 copies. 

What then, Little Abominations?

As long as I like the music I don't care about it flopping - even if it sells 1 copy - which would be mine

I don't care if LG5 flops...I'll still be her fan.(2008- till i R.I.P)

[ViviLittleM 3]

I just want new music.

But the new album is sure to have a good first week at least.

You know, even after jazz, even after AHS, Gaga still has a fanbase.

Or at least, the ones who left her during these last three years, will come back when Gaga will release pop.

I would be very surprised if the album doesn't sell at least 100k first week in the US & 300k WW.

We can't predict the sales btw. I would like more than 100k tho. At least 200k plz.

Her last pop release was in 2013

now it's 2016, the sales climate is a mess.

It also depends of the promo.

I'm happy with this. Dope is okay. If it horrendously flops, though. It would be a very very difficult time to be a fan and enjoy the music. If that happens, I will still like the album but I ain't watching her every move after that until she redeems herself.

[AlexanderMagno 10,746]

This album will definitely be a hit or miss. I don't care about flops, in fact I don't think ANY fan cares about the commercial success of LG5. And that is the greatest strategy Gaga or Campbell have ever come up with. We are so desperate for music, for good music, that we don't even care if it doesn't reach top 40. We just want the best album.

 

If it sells 300 copies and has nice music, I'll be a fan. If it sells 300 or 3 million and is not that special musically, I won't force myself like I used to. Sorry Gaga, I fell in love with you for your music and your personality. Not your acting skills and not your jazz covers (or any cover, except Imagine). Your personality has already changed a lot, so we're left with the music, and I am patiently waiting.

As much as I want her to be successful again, I don't really care anymore. 

[crisTEAne 21,059]

i don't give a fück if it "flops," whatever that means. if i like the music, i'll be more than fine.

Both

I think "flop" in the title is misleading, the general connotation of that word is a commercial failure, if it is a commercial failure I will continue to be a fan because I genuinely love her music, and while I do enjoy her commercial success the absense of it isn't a dealbreaker for me, however if the album is a letdown musically/visually I may leave her and focus on other artists, however I would still check out her future releases to see if I liked them, and at any rate, I will probably like almost anything she makes

So yall are like Interscope now or some sh*t? You'd rather have unhappy Gaga unhonest Gaga and have no.1 on Billboards?

Let's be honest. Gaga could only build a very good generations-spanning catalog if she has longevity. She can only have longevity if she has at least moderate success. She can flop sometime in the future. But she needs to succeed now in order to keep producing music and to be relevant. Technically speaking her sales have declined since her debut. She needs to break that streak.

And don't come for me for some naive, "she'll make music as long as she wants". We all know and saw how much meltdown she had with ARTPOP's sales performance.

[Decodekid 25,346]

guess what, it doesn't really matter, the quality of the music is still there, i would want to see what would've happened here if TFM flopped and ARTPOP slayed 

[yxi 4,999]

I don't care at all.

All my fav artists are from the alternative world and it would give Gaga more creative freedom in the end.
