100% sure. April 30th is kinda far away I personally think they should release them now since they pushed back the album date. But yeah we are getting official remixes for Stupid Love.

Are you really gunna act like the video flopped because of these things the GP doesn't care about. She literally disappeared from the face of the earth Canceled the second single (twice) and then reappeared MONTHS later and did that video as a gift to fans after the messy ass era....G.U.Y never had a chance. 

I mean the actual video quality and its success in terms of views definitely aren't correlated. She definitely went in for us to aokogise for DWUW but no thanks to the Bravo promo! 

Funny that stans and twitter loved it tho, and it still bombed 

Interesting!

I'm so saddened by how this era has been destroyed pretty much right from the outset. 

- The initial delays that really irked the fanbase, and created an attitude of desperation not excitement. 

- The leak of SL and snippets of the MV. 

- The way this was ignored for a long time - even at the SuperSaturdayShow. 

- The MVs - unfairly, imo - negative response from most fans. 

- The radio silence from Gaga (even before Covid) 

- The Babylon leak. 

- The album DELAY. 

- The album cover leak. 

- The cancelled iHeartRadio performance, the cancelled Coachella set, the cancelled Apple music event. 

- No looks, no candids, no fan interactions. 

- Postponed tour. 

And, of course, all of this has happened against the backdrop of a global pandemic that has changed the world immeasurably. 

All of this is, of course, totally out of Gaga's hands - but man, when you really lay it out, this era's roll out, quite literally, could not have been worse. 

I mean, can you IMAGINE if we knew LG6 would be like this?

All the years of hype, waiting and anticipation - and THIS is what has happened. 

It's such a hard pill to swallow. I know there are more important things going on right now in the world, but, as a fan, it's really tough. 

What makes it EVEN worse is how this album is probably incredible and won't have the era it deserved. 

And the damn album cover leaking ???? 

it's so unfair for Gaga and the fans. I'm doing everything I can to avoid it, but knowing it's just out there is so weird and so wrong.

Chromatica will be forever tainted - for us, and for Gaga. 

And her first pop album in so, so long did not deserve that. 

  Reveal hidden contents

Let me have my rant, lol. I KNOW the world is suffering right now. I KNOW it's just a pop album. And I KNOW it means nothing. 

But to me, and I am sure to many on here, in our own little bubbles - it does matter. 

It matters to us because Gaga matters to us and so does her work. And regardless of how irrelevant it is in the grand scheme of this pandemic, it matters to us.

 

Its been the most sabotaged era from the get go... but I can't help but put some of the blame on her, her team, and her label. There's a lot out with her control, and equally a lot she could be doing. 

I would absolutely loved if Gaga pushed the release of Stupid Love a month forward so it would have came out at the end of January because of the leak. Its not just about charts and sales, but the general hype was more when it leaked than when she officially released it. Also, this could've meant that Chromatica's release date could have been moved forward to the middle of March. 

I am sick and tired, along with many other fans, of her silence. Which SHE can control. Its ridiculous that she hasn't said anything or been active with her fans on social media... even BEFORE Covid 19. Infact, now that we have Covid 19 she be a motivator for her to help us fans and brighten up our day by doing lives on Instagram... or just something like that.

The fact her stuff keeps getting leaked is frustrating. Not only to us, but probably to Gaga too. I don't understand why they keep happening; is it because Gaga's team and label are so messy? Its ridiculous that one of the most acclaimed and respected artists in the game right now suffers this many leaks to her art.

The rest of the stuff is outwith her control, but she could be doing so much to make up for it. I completely agree with your posts.

And the sad thing about it is that I just know that this album will be her best yet... but it will never get the full era experience that it truly deserves

Me too!!!! It would be amazing. It annoyed me she was one of the only musicians not to perform at the Elton John thing honestly. Even my mom said that

Does anyone else feel like, stylistically, this is the continuation after ARTPOP. Not to throw and shade to Joanne or ASIB, but it's clear (and well documented) that she had a big shift emotionally and scrapped a lot of concepts mid-ARTPOP promo and it feels like this is picking up right where the Rah Rah Bish left off.

She seems happy, healthy, and back on her insane ****. I'm gutted the universe didn't let this rollout happen like it was planned, but I think for early fans of Gaga, this is a really exciting return to her carefully curated aesthetic from the Born This Way era. There's a real creative consistency if you follow the progression of the albums (with Joanne left out lol).

I would even say this is the continuación of Born This Way. ARTPOP and Joanne really felt like, a other Gaga. they are great álbumes but it doesnt feel 100 gaga.. more like a mixture of gaga and stefanni

[Delaney Elias 1,318]

I would rather Gaga release the album when it gets better, but maybe release a single or two and do a home concert or something. IDK, I just want Gaga to be safe.

Because it's highly likely to be the case

it most likely will be. They're not gonna allow huge crowds to gather so soon. It'll be a breeding ground for the virus. This pandemic is gonna last for months and the vaccine won't be made till mid next year.
