After maybe about 2 weeks from it's release, then the video, for the video, a special appearance on a show to debut the video should be done, none of this surprise release crap or just posting it online, it needs to be an event like Gaga used to do. She did a lot of promo for MR exactly in the way that you’ve outlined. I do miss artists promoting singles in this way so it grows organically. These days it’s just about aggregating impact sales, video/spotify streams to hit that top spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModernEcstasy 6,720 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 You do know that the album you mention is nominated for an award, right? How does that make it pointless? Dont get your hopes up. I genuinely believe that the days when Gaga would use a platform like this to release new music are over! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayer 9,227 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 How about we all just stop trying to advise Gaga on what she does with her career and just enjoy the one rare performance we're getting? I love judas SO MUCH but I canʹt look like a copycat of JLO!!!!

Those were THE Days! But, anyway, those great times are over. She now seems to not be interested in promotion that much, and I'm totally okay with that. I'm not one of those flop fans (no offense, but still) who say "keep it" to her at the idea of new music w/out promotion. I think that, the most we get, the best, even if she is not gonna promote it in any way. A music video would be fantastic for each single, but you know, it's about the music and the visuals are just secondary so I'm totally ok with her not promoting anymore. Mostly because, when she does, SHE TOTALLY SLAYS and we know that for a fact!

Sense8 182 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Obviously,Gaga will choose to sing a song from the album. The main reason that she would do something so "pointless", is that she is Lady Gaga and........ She Can Do What She Wants With Her Career! (Whether some they like it or not!)  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
