She can easily make herself relevant anytime she wants. Truly a mastermind. 10 years from now she'll still be relevant. Mark my words.

I think as LM's its still fair to claim these sales, just like it is fair to claim the 2018 yo song streams on your 2020 albums. Gaga didn't sell BTW for 99 cents, Amazon did. She had no control over that, it was solely Amazon's decision to do so as a campaign to promote their online music platform. And it was Amazon who took whatever loss it did to do that. Interscope and Gaga were not a part of that. The same cannot be said for Ava, Halsey, and Katy and their labels making the explicit choice to include old songs on their new albums to boost its stream count from the get go. So really just not comparable. At all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure she's going to be relevant for a long time, she has everything to have that kind of career. She's already on the legend status, imagine how her career would look like at the end, literally God have mercy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So really just not comparable. At all. whatever who did it, is gaga and interscope claimings those sales numbers? It is comparable in the sense that it is a tactic that most likely helped gaga have more sales than if the rule against too low priced albums was on, regardless of who made that decision. also, maybe ava didnt want to include SBS but her record label made it a sine qua non condition? You just have no idea, and at this point you're just making excuses for Gaga. I think there was nothing wrong with selling BTW 99 cents, but to call out other artists or labels who use similar tactics is bad faith. also, what about chromatica's merch bundles? If i am not mistaken those sales counted towards regular album sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think as LM's its still fair to claim these sales, just like it is fair to claim the 2018 yo song streams on your 2020 albums. Is it really necessary to say for the thousandth time that neither Gaga nor her record company knew about this 99 cents mess and that they were "indemnified" for this after receiving the full price for each copy sold by Amazon for 99 cents?! For God's sake, it's been almost a decade and some of you haven't learned yet, you look like haters who insist on hitting the same damn key, do a search before going on the haters' wave! The retailer had been selling the digital version of the album at a heavily discounted 99 cents (60p) in a effort to hook in customers, but according to the New York Magazine, it has set Amazon back over $3 million as they have been paying the singer’s record label Universal $9 (£5.60) per album they sell. As they’ve moved over 440,000 downloads, this adds up to over $3 million. https://www.nme.com/news/music/lady-gaga-327-1284202 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
