zakariah 11,718 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 there's still about 4-5 days to go before the tracking week ends, so let's all try & push it to 300k sales (or maybe 400k if it's possible) Β Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sis it has very solid #s, especially as HDD tends to underestimate so I wouldn't be surprised if she does 285k (the high end of their projection) or even 300k. But 250k plus is still a hit except for like...Taylor or Adele...these days. Only the most delulu fans thought she was going to do BTW #s considering streaming (everyone's dropped, and Gaga's especially weak with streaming). It's not particularly mainstream friendly music, the pandemic is still impacting everything, there are multiple riots going on, ageism in the field, & pop isn't particularly even that "popular" anymore unless you are talking about trap pop or very GP friendly/safe pop. There are a few exceptions like Billie, but that's it. I mean Ariana during her TUN was arguably almost as big as Gaga during her BTW era and still had under 400k. That said, even the pandemic/current situation in the US wasn't going on it probably wouldn't do more than 325k...and that still would be good.

I actually don't think she should take a break. I think she should release another pop album within a year of Chromatica to really capitalize off of this re-peak. So like February-May 2021. Then she should have a baby w/ Michael and then maybe do another movie (the Gucci one) and then I want her to release a hard rock album! currently streaming Zombieboy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is it will not be a good look if monsters try to organize a streaming party today or tomorrow considering everything that's going on here in the US....maybe a last minute streaming party on Tuesday/Wednesday would help?

Donβt get me wrong, I want it to do go because itβs more like a concept album than a regular one, itβs non-stop flow makes it feel like a musical. I love it for thatΒ and I want it to work so we can hopefully have more visuals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Gag, but she's never made GP friendly music with the exception of Joanne/ASIB. 600/700k is the very most she would realistically sell back before streaming was a thing without any sort of major deal like that (and tbf as you said it was an Amazon decision)βeven when she was at her "commercial/pop cultural" peak. Add in everything that's going on, streaming, ageism, etc. and 250k-300k makes a lot of sense even if she used to sell 600-700k.Β But fans see that million mark instead....
