LG7: Destination Reached! (The Official Discussion Thread)

[Starmie25 12,640]

And let's be real had the song been performing well you'd all be celebrating how incredible the teasing/rollout was yayayaya

It is what it is.

Tbh I'm grateful with the fact we'll get her dark pop music back and I'm 100% sure this album will join TFM, BTW and TF as my favorite projects of her.

But I'd really want to see the passion. Her doing interviews, performing, being glad sharing that moment with us. Especially when she told us she considers this music as the best shr has done for ages. No sign of that passion as of now tbh.

For the moment she has shown more interest in promoting Harlequin than Disease and it hurts a bit. I hope stuff are coming like real quick, not in two months.

some of y'all really need to give up the idea of having promo that makes sense and done well (especially for pop eras) 

if you like the music just focus on enjoying that...

This! This is exactly how I feel. I was expecting her to be shouting about her art from the rooftops after she had said that. 
But I guess it is what it is and we will just have to accept that this era may have even less content than Chromatica. We’ll see. 
 

(people claiming that she won’t promote her projects like she used to. How is it that we had far more promo for Harlequin than her lead single from her long awaited album)

Can’t wait for the threads called

“Will LG7 be pushed back?”

”Gaga is silent because of Trump” (rumor tag but it’s just a random thought)

“Where is the 2nd single?” 

[Hey Boy 886]

She attended the rally like 2 days ago, there was a tiktok with black wig 2 days earlier. I don't expect her to do crazy promo during this election week but saying today that she disappeared and doesn't care about the era is huge overreacting. Of course her team was prepared for a possibility of Trump winning but releasing Disease during Halloween was still a great opportunity. I'm sure she's back on track with LG7 in a week or two.

I won’t complain about her decisions around promoting the single, however, I find it a bit weird how uneventful it’s been when she was the first one to act so excited and proud about this new music and this new chapter etc all year long, idk

but also kamala could have won so yeah, all her team's fault for not knowing trump would win months/years in advance when they were planning her schedule around joker 2

Even is Kamala won, would anything have changed? She could have done a few performances before the election if she really wanted to. As usual, we wait years and years for a release that then feels very uneventful and some people reach for the stars trying to find an excuse as to why. 
 

They had nearly 5 years to plan. Half a decade. So disappointing but not surprising that they don’t actually have a plan/interest to make it more fun for the fans

This!

I’m certain she will do more promo before the year’s over, but some of y’all need to learn to think more critically about this. She released the song close to the election and just right before radios will start playing Christmas music. If y’all thought Disease was going to have this huge promo cycle, you were mistaken.

Should she/can she do more? Sure. But even if she gave us everything we wanted, people would still be asking for more. She’s not deciding on a whim when to promote or not promote this stuff. Her and her team and things planned out and we just need to see where they take us with it. 

[Reality 71,514]

Btw, even if Kamala won the election, I don’t think that would changed anything. She probably still wouldn’t have promoted Disease this week regardless. It’s not like she’s like “Well, Trump won again so I’m going to just drop everything and cry all day about it.”

[steven 5,273]

I'm 100% sure she's not gonna promote the song atp. They are letting the song grow organically.

[Monsterclaw 354]

The truth is, in today’s age people consume music in a different way - the album will make or break the era itself. Just look at Billie, look at Charli and even Halsey more recently: if the album is good( and I believe it will be great) a good word of mouth could turn some of the songs on the record into smash hits 

Disease is not a smash, I agree but dont count it out yet - the radio is steady, the streaming is not the best but thanks to radio it could catch on. If not, that doesnt mean that other songs wont - look at Doja, ,,Attention” was a huge bomb, even tho it was a great song but ,,Paint The Town Red” came and turned things around. I still think that a #1 album is pretty much guaranteed atp.

She can always pull a Katy and add DWAS to the tracklist if things dont work out tho 
 

And as a European, I would love to see more promo but I think its quite normal for them to stay silent for a week at least, considering the fact that a literal criminal and a dictator just won

[Noah 26,515]

I think they're trying the DWAS Strategy with Disease.

November and December are strictly for making the song grow on radio -> Songs that were released end of the year last year grew the most on radio in January (like Greedy by Tate), but Disease having time to gain airplay points on BB could be great for when...

Remixes, Ext. Versions, Physicals + TTH #1 Placement on January 10th. The second week of January has low points, It would be a great shot for a #1, then Single #2 and Album + Tour Announcement on January 17th and Album Release on February 14th with a surprise Music Video.
