Mr S 8,671 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Stupid Love stalled at #11 on pop radio while Rain On Me barely reached top 10. Both had bad callouts. We've seen Taylor Swift forget about pop radio and focus on Hot AC sound with Folklore after seeing the warning signs during the Lover era. Beyonce did the same after 4 underperformed. Her music was still hot and trendy with Beyonce and Lemonade, but she didn't even bother sending stuff there, didn't follow their release dates etc. Rain On Me is currently up to #4 on Hot AC and #3 is within reach. Is it time to forget about pop radio? And focus more on Hot AC which is kinder to 30+ females who have been in the game for a decade? Or do they already know that? Hence why they pulled Rain On Me right after reaching top 10? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decodekid 27,869 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Should she quit the music that she loves doing simply because it “underperforms” ?no, she’s done many genres too, have they all been successful?,no. She should do what makes her happy edit: i read wrong, sorry. Long Live Gretchen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well she did for this era anyway. That album is taylormade for Hot AC and I expect it to SMASH on that format. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

venusfly 17,885 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 The music Gaga is putting out just doesn’t fit on pop radio, it’s so jarringly different and stylised it doesn’t flow into a playlist with other current pop music, except for Rain On Me which still kinda suffered from being dated. If Gaga wants to keep making pop music or tbh any kind of music she needs to work with better producers and let them guide the sound a bit, her last few pop albums and Joanne have had very simplistic production that doesn’t really wow at all. Sleek production matters a lot these days and she doesn’t have it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWICE on hatius 4,746 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 OP didn’t say Gaga should forget about pop, they said it’s about interscope and Gaga’s team should focus on having deals with hot ac stations like Taylor’s. Pop songs can still be on Hot AC. Please ignore the spelling in username. I am a Beyonce stan afterall. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yes and 4,884 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 She will be happy to create Joanne 2.0, but the fanbase will collapse over and again Did you think I'd show up in a limousine? No Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
