StarstruckIllusion 42,263 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I hate him, you hate him, about everyone I know think he's a joke, but that's not the case rn. Gaga went folk-country-whatever-it's-not-electronic-pop, for what? Idk. But one thing she's making clear in interviews, is that she wants the country fans, and pop fans to bond over this record? The Gag is, a lot of country fans are Trump supporters… mostly. So, why is Gaga dragging their fave so much? (okay I know why but still) If I were a Trump supporter, I'd be pressed, and not wanna check out Joanne, honestly, truly. So in the end, she tried for two years to make a country-ish-whatever the **** album for the country stans, & now she's pissing them off on Twitter. So in the end, switching to this genre could have been avoided, and we could have gotten the funk album most of us were expecting… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it's kinda not sensible to rant about trump like this, when she threw out The Fame Mons†er sound for this deplorable audience. /CloseReply.

Bebe 16,562 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Why should Gaga have to pander to Trump supporters? Gaga has always been political, she has always been outspoken. Don't need more safe 'artists' who avoid speaking their mind because they are afraid of a little controversy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Wave 7,617 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I think that a singer is primary a singer, not a politician. Singers should not openly expose they're politic view; they can and should fight for what they believe in (like gay marriage etc) but never clearly supporting one or one atoner candidate That's how I see it Anyway, I can understand why she is shading Trump so much, I would do the same if I were her and hated him so much! And please ppl stop saying Joanne is not country... I love country and I love everything Gaga does and I love Joanne but Joanne IS clearly country influenced c'mon don't lie to yourselves Colourful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackcoffee 1,264 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 It's a pretty big assumption to say the majority of country music fans are Trump supporters...for example, the majority of teachers I work with, a lot of my friends (gay and straight), and myself (gay) enjoy and even love country music and they're all fiercely liberal and HATE Trump. Many of them and their friends go to Stagecoach festival (like the country's biggest country music festival here in California), so they're pretty diehard. Maybe it's because I live in the progressive bubble of LA and California. If people let politics shape their musical interest then that's pretty sad. I don't think it plays as much as a role as you think. Beyoncé is very political and yet look how much she sells...that's not all from the left.

ImNotBritney 66 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I don't think Gaga cares about how much she's going to sell with this album. Indie albums usually sell between like 9k-25k, so maybe that's what she's aiming for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
