She is known for putting out great singles but in terms of a whole album she lacks of full potential. So, this can work for her.

I just think that the music industry is constantly changing lately, and in the past 5 years... record labels have no idea what to do anymore.. Lady Gaga said this herself.

I feel they're just trying anything and everything to see what works, and hooks people again.

It's sad, the music industry. I'm glad she at least gets to release music, though.. it's something.

When did Gaga say that?

Most music artists could not cope without releasing an album, its a body of work that forms their legacy.  Standalone singles do not capture this in the same way.

Subtle way to say I'm gonna release singles until I get a number one hit, then I'll drop the album. I see what you did there. :ohwell:

skdkdks I was gonna say
I love her and all but this is basically "I'm gonna release until I get a top 10" (a number one at this point is wishful thinking)
good strategy tho because NRO definitely built hype

Releasing an album gives a reason for an artist to go on tour where they make more money than they would via streaming or sales.

The SXSW keynote she did in 2014. She spoke about it a lot during the whole interview, about record labels and what they do to try and make money...

Then she blatantly says it that "without big companies and sponsorships, you wouldn't have artists coming to Austin, we won't have any festivals, because record labels don't have any ****ing money"

That pretty much sums it up that record labels have no idea what to do exactly, so they'll try anything and everything to see what works.

A tour wouldnt have to be for an album specifically. We just think of it that way because it's what were used to

 

If an artist only released singles they could just as easily do shows for collections of singles :shrug:

Well this works better for her, she's always been a singles artist. It must be very exhausting having to go through all of this songwriting camps and planning everything for months then just have an album cycle end early because it did not meet expetations. Not saying this about her but more about other artists, especially in the streaming era so I understand why she'd want to do that, if the label lets her of course.

She’s waiting till she gets a hit out of something then she’ll announce an album.
