How Long Will Gaga Be Remembered For?

what about Michael

I think that in the end it depends how the world will develop in the far future and if pop music will be regarded as important as it is now. Sure, our culture will be remembered, but in the common knowledge it will definitely be condensed and the 60's, 70's, 80's. 90's, the 00's etc will all probably blend together, and there won't be much distinction between the styles. (for example, I am sure that most people can't make out the subtle stylistic differences between, say, 1780 and 1790). So out of all the artists, actors, singers etc from our time, and the last 60+ years, I think only a handful will still be household names.

Maybe

I feel like u have to be one of the highlights of the century to be remembered hundreds of years later tbh 

Just like bethooven and Barch and Mozart (I can't remember how to spell their names properly) were music highlights of the century...

Just like Einstein and Isac Newton were highlight scientists of their centuries....

And just like Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson were highlight entertainers if their century....

I think Gaga will need to be the highlight of this era too in order to be remembered

If she's not the biggest over these first decades of the 2000s in general she will only be remembered as long as children of parents who were around during Gaga's years are alive

That would take the generational overlap to maybe the early to mid 2100s after that no one would know Gaga

Unless again she is the highlight of this century

After some thought, I want to revise my opinion a little bit. 

My statement is slightly irrelevant because (pretty much) all performers before the 20th century really had no way of recording their performances. People didn’t have a favorite performer, they had a favorite composer. Consumption of media was different then. 

There really is no way of predicting longevity of modern legends because we don’t know how recordings and other forms of media will stand the test of time. I’m imagining the over-production of media will eventually be the downfall of old legends, just like how Édith Piaf doesn’t ring as many bells as someone like Taylor Swift. Not denying Édith’s impact, but she has come and gone and many people have followed since.

Theres no way of knowing how long people will remember Lady Gaga, obviously she’ll be remembered longer than Dua Lipa, but for how long?

this question really only can be answered if THE WORLD EVEN EXISTS IN THE FUTURE. thanks to global warming i’m not too sure the planet will be around.

but if the world is still around i think she’ll be remembered at least til the 2070’s or so

It only takes a hundred of them to survive and ONE OF THEM TO BELIEV-

I can already imagine edgy gays blasting Gaga, Katy and Rihanna  in their spaceships in 100 years, stating that old music was so much better and that they were born in the wrong century..
