if Nicki can get credit for 100's of "hits" thanks to 5 second features, Gaga can get credit for ASIB OST. 

Or neither of them should get credit :chica:

Probably. But in any case Gaga is heavily involved in one of the best selling albums of the year.   I don't know why people are so intent on getting lost in semantics to throw water on her accomplishment.  It's become impossible on this forum to celebrate any Gaga accomplishment without someone trying to tell you why it's wrong to do so.

Well, I get that frustration.

I guess in this instance it's just so blatantly wrong to call this a female album that even people who are completely content with ASIB's success want to step in and say something :rip:

Don't forget that for some fans, these "the #1 best seller" credentials just don't have much meaning, which means they're at least not intentionally throwing water on Gaga's "accomplishments" by questioning their accuracy. Many people here who have argued about semantics have made that clarification quite explicitly :shrug: Rejecting this probably false achievement does not make ASIB's success any lesser.

I think you are 100% right. I celebrate ASIB success, I love the album, I recognize it is a commercial and critics success AND that gaga is the main reason behind its success. I just don't think it can be categorized as a female album for the sake of saying its no 1 in that category.

People calling everybody raising these points delulu or somewhat attacking Gaga really miss the point.

Furthermore, I think that trying to make the album fit awkwardly in that category makes us look desperate. So y'all should just stream Shallow and be content.

Didn't ARTPOP sell like 2.5 million in 2013? ARTPOP is NOT a flop. #Justice4ARTPOP
