YAS Gaga's 2nd album to do so, and Bradley's first  truly a main pop girl

Three-time Grammy winner Bradley Cooper - I still cannot with this 

edit: apparently he didn't get one for INLA so it's two-time Grammy winner

No, he didn’t write the song. Only songwriters get that award. He got one for Pop/Duo and one for best Soundtrack!

I know it has been 2 years but I don't know if we even realize what a huge album and hit Gaga got with this. This is going to remain a classic and It's going to be remembered for maaaany years. The charts doesn't even do it's justice for the amount of impact that it has.

The answer is literally the lack of followup singles after Shallow; ASIB shows how it feels to have a successful album without ongoing promotion to give a sense of permanence / place to the individual songs themselves. Despite the being a streaming / sales giant to this day, how can the impact “be felt” beyond Shallow, the only single with iconic performances that has transitioned into Gaga’s discography (part of setlists like Enigma etc.)?

The Fame felt like it impacted pop music culture for its 200 weeks; JD, PF, LG, Paparazzi all spent weeks Charting on their own, with dozens of performances, and have become staples in her shows. ASIB was musically relevant for a short time: the release, Oscars campaigning, and the Oscars themselves. Had ARUTW been released after the Oscars with live performances, airplay, etc. leading up to a Grammys campaign for AOTY, the longevity would’ve been more tangible. 

And, certainly, had Interscope gone all-in on the Grammys once Oscar season was over, and released a Deluxe version of the album with INLA as a promo single, and something like Clover as a final single (after Shallow and ARUTW), it’d be a much more substantial era musically.
