They never made an original jazz song together :(💔

That we know of.. I have a feeling there's some unreleased material between the two of them that may still be in the vault.

Same. And yes I believe he did pass the torch to her. It may take a while, but when she gets back to Vegas I am sure she will do J&P to honor him.

I wouldn’t say he did.  Gaga has never released a solo jazz project. The only thing we really ever got was Jazz and Piano in Vegas.  Other than that, I would not compare her jazz career to Tony’s.  

Pronounced like “Balenciaga” . Emphasis on the “Ga”

Just because she hasn’t released a solo jazz album, doesn’t mean anything. 
 

Why would she have done that, when she was instead recording them with a legend, such as Tony Bennett. Gaga takes things like this seriously — as an artist and professional. She respected him, so why would she use this experience for herself?
 

Now is her time to keep his artistry alive, and I absolutely think they recorded more together, and he truly saw her as the one to keep this going.

True, but I believe over the years Gaga will create a name for herself in Jazz too. Give it time💗

Lets not get technical here. If a legend like Tony spoke so great about young artists like Gaga and Amy then it's a huge thing and for sure a compliment. She's just being humble about the torch thing but it must've felt amazing to hear that coming from him.

solo jazz album needed right now. i don’t care what little monsters say. Jazz is all about your power as an artist to improvise and interpret material. I’m sure she’ll do one later on in life, but i want one now

Gaga has introduced jazz to a lot of young fans that otherwise might not have listened to it, so she carries the torch in that sense.

What I look forward to most from her is a solo jazz album in the future. It might be an unpopular opinion, but I really enjoy her jazz / traditional pop projects.

Very this! If it wasn't for Gaga collaborating with Tony, I would've never really thought I could get into that genre. It made me love and appreciate it more and seeing them live during the C2C tour was amazing and established that genre to be one of my favorites... 

It's a bittersweet feeling as of right now though :(

I don't think so. Tony is a jazz legend in his own right and is untouchable in that regard. It would be a lot of pressure to put on Gaga to say that she now has the torch that Tony once held. And, as she said, she doesn't want to be passed anything from him.
