I can see this. It may have done better. But the album is terrible (besides Witness and Roulette) that it wouldn't have kept up past the first week. I don't think she could pull off a surprise release with her next release. She'd probably have to wait and see if her next album is better received.

zakariah 11,718 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Adele, Taylor Swift, Eminem & Gaga (if she pulls it off correctly. If she released TC with its MV + a bit of promo here & there, it would've peaked within the top 10 by now) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we aren't talking about the past. Witness was not well received and did not do well (for Katy's standards). She could not do a surprise release with her next release. She would have to gain the GP back to her side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm lowkey upset no one likes them but the rest of the album is trash so I can see why it didn't sell. Witness should have been a surprise release because she still had the fame she built up from Prism and all of it's singles. It would have been a really good surprise tbh.

Maleficent 6 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 If Madonna puts together a really good album, she could pull it off. As for having the balls to do it, if it were up to Madge, she definitely would have them to do so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRoof 21,600 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I THINK TAYLOR , BRUNO , EMINEM , MADONNA , ETC.... BUT THE THING IS IF THEY COULD HAVE SUCCESSFUL SINGLES (BEYONCE AND LEMONADE DON'T HAVE HITS) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PartySick 159,825 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Gaga has the balls for it and she could pull it off. I doubt she'd ever surprise release an album though She tends to like hyping the base, expressing what this album means, and then introducing us to a whole new chapter in her/our lives 🌸Flourishing and vibrant🌼 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlayGagaloo 16,152 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 The Cure was basically a surprise release and it went #1 on ITunes in +60 countries (still the only female song to top ITunes WW in 2017) Over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicki? for real? the girl who delayed her album like 7 times to get the #1 spot at billboard hot 100 but but failed to beat 1989 in its 6th week?

And what was the second week numbers? And what is the current chart position? Gurl, you need to stop smoking whatever you are smoking. Prism was pretty massive and now she dropped off the radar.
