Billboard tried to praise Gaga but they kinda said she's "over"

[pedrohemg 7,802]

I put "over" between quotation marks because I couldn't find a better word to describe what I felt reading this article.

"Gaga's days of actively competing with the Beyonces and Drakes of the world are likely over, but her place beside them in the all-time pantheon is secure. The mic drop was well-earned."

Don't really get how this was anything but praise but ok

And yet they posted 100000x post using Gaga as a clickbait today  #byeboard 

[venusfly 17,885]

It wasn't a drag though, it's an honest reflection, are they supposed to lie and act like shes a big popstar in today's scene?

[Future Lover 2,588]

They had to include Drake, huh 

[Hades 27,980]

They had to include Beyonce once again.

They're praising Gaga saying she can't compete with Beyonce and Drake anymore.

I laughed out loud at the cafeteria

That's complete shade lmao **** them

I hope Gaga is top 20 next week and they can eat their words 

 

But also who's competing with Beyoncé? How many top 10s has she had in the last 6 years? Lemonade and Beyoncé sold well, but let's not pretend she's a huge force on the charts lol

[Phlop 4,773]

It's like a passive aggressive compliment lol

[Stef 61,645]

They're basically saying she's a throwback artist now. That's it. They don't need to sugarcoat it. Despite the fact her 2016 album outdebuted and outsold some of her known contemporaries, but of course what does that matter huh? The sales are 'respectable' I guess  

[xoxo Craig 55,649]

No no no no, guys! They are saying that Gaga is much better than Beyonce and Drake, thats why she is no longer competing with them
