I keep seeing threads about Gaga not getting any sort of backing by radio stations, so what do you guys think needs to happen in order for them to support her music again?

It's easy. She just needs to pick the right LEAD SINGLE. Every one of her eras are promising but she tends to pick the wrong lead. Also better management. 

I know a lot of you will say she needs to feature a hot rapper or remix her songs or release generic tropical music but actually Joanne could of produced a solid lead single had she chose the right track. Starting an era off with PI and then not promoting it and giving it an OK music video and being featured on TTH for LESS then a week killed her momentum for the era and did not allow her to build any momentum on radio.

Radio is an oligopoly. The music played is determined by "artists" and labels who pay up.

I believe they are about ready to play her again but they want more "radio friendly" material from her.  Maybe if she works with Max Martin next album.  (:giggle: kidding.)

Pay. LOL.

It's not like the radios wouldn't play her music.

 

Go around and check "Love on the Brain" climbing into top10 with the only promo being a performance at...2016 billboard music awards....in may.

 

and the song is peaking right now..........all because of radios. Because the song isn't into top 10 of "spotify" or "iTunes". 

 

Also the fact that Gaga really never did THAT WELL on the radio at all... Born This Way got these 100 millions and then died quick after the first month...ever her hit singles suffred with radio.

Unfortunately, payola. Radios work as advertisements too. Though we should be lucky they're playing her songs from time to time at least.

I’m getting on your nerves

She shot herself in the foot when she released PI and done absolutely nothing for it. It was her big comeback after 3 years away from the pop scene, and even then she was coming back from a relatively underperforming era, she done all this radio promo but they could only play it for as long as audiences were demanding it :neyde:

The difference now is that MR is clearly in demand but radios are just being ****img stubborn :air: 

Signature loading… 👹🖤

Well first we need to understand why they don't play her songs.

I'd say that none of Joanne songs is radio friendly, and it's not just the song itself but her voice.

Though i had hopes for MR, at least in the USA. I think if they would give her the chance, the audience would like it very much.

She seems on good terms with some important radio stations like KISS. I thought some were still reticent that she might be forgotten from public. But with a sucessful SB, it's a bit strange.

Though i think she's been very close with radio really to ensure support for her next venture. I swear all the work she's been doing seems like she has a big plan thought ahead.
