What if Gaga never released ARTPOP?

[Economy 50,314]

Meh. ARTPOPs failures was her bottom that forced her to reinvent herself in a way that forced ppl to see her talent and earned her respect

 

Had that been a different era with slightly more success she likely may not have gone the route she went and maybe fizzled out gradually over time without that bounce back she did

 

Things were well for her in the long term to happen the way did even if at the time the long term benefits of a messy era were not obvious

My 3rd Fav. So while I'd be very lacking of it I'd have enough of 1 and 2 to Stan

I'd rather she never released cheek to cheek

The timeline won't work. We won't have the Sound of Music, Million Reasons, the Superbowl, A Star is Born and most importantly, she won't win that Oscar she wished for years. If ARTPOP didn't exist, would we see Gaga happier than she is now?

I never would’ve stanned and she still would’ve flopped at some point since she was already flopping at the end of BTW Era

A timeline without VENUS???

Since everything happens for a reason. If Gaga never recorded and released ARTPOP then:

in order:

1.) She might not feel as depressed

2.) There will be no Cheek To Cheek

3.) She might not find another venture as result of depression with music industry

4.) She might never performed tribute to Sound of Music at Oscars

5.) She might not acting and singing in ASIB

6.) She might not won an Oscar

Imagine an album being so iconic that it's still got people chattering about it 7 years later as though it was released just yesterday.
