socotra 3,310 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, DaBaby, and Bad Bunny have pumped out albums like no other over the last couple years. Rihanna also used to do this. Adele, Lady Gaga, Beyoncé, Drake, and The Weeknd appear to be sticking to the "every ~3-4 years" (roughly) model. Dua Lipa may also fall into this category depending on when her 3rd drops (her debut had 9 singles, FN has had 5). The trade-off seems to be that if you release more consistently, your era is gonna be shorter. If you don't release as frequently, the era is longer. What do you prefer? Which do you think is the better route to go? (imo it seems like consistent releasing is working beautifully in the streaming era) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chromatican 4,046 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I don't want Gaga to release more frequently than every two years to be quite honest. Releasing music all the time really dilutes the value in my opinion. These rappers and newer popstars do it, but I just think Gaga is best off alternating between film and music projects and keeping the music projects special by not flooding the market with Gaga music all the time. I guess I favor longer eras then, with eras having defined aesthetics and artistic goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson123 38,405 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I think I prefer more eras now, depends on the artist and the music. Sometimes there's not much to do with singles once the album is out so to keep promoting it gets hard, not all of them can rely on streaming, and all of them have to postpone touring now so it gets hard. For Gaga I'd say more eras because I know she's always gonna come up with the best material, she's a perfectionist and quality is important to her.

MadreMonster 2,584 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 If Gaga does eras like BTW where they are full fledged out and realized, then longer eras are just fine by me. But she could benefit from shorter eras where she could do two/three performances, two videos, and a “short” tour. It may help her with her acting gigs and her fibro wouldn’t flare as much. I would hope the album would be a bit shorter though and she wouldn’t feel too much pressure to create grandiose track lists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know the quality won't suffer because...I mean, it's Gaga I don't really care about the era thing though. I like her concepts more than anything. Absolute acceptance, love, and tolerance. A ritual dance of creative rebellion set to electronic music. A family themed personal album. A psychotic dance album. I will literally love whatever she does as long as it has a meaning and she enjoys putting it out there for us. Billionaires are a cancer. Even the ones you like.
