Juanjo 1,484 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I’m loving this song, and the potential it has to become a smash and classic. I am so proud of Gaga for putting out such a beautiful work, and with such a legend, as Bruno. However, there’s no denying this is a very, very interesting event, and the fact it doesn’t belong to neither of the artist’s upcoming work, is also very… odd. Which, makes me wonder, was this maybe an agreement between Gaga and label? What if LG7 is so conceptual/experimental/non-GP-friendly, that Interscope said, “Ok, you have total creative freedom for LG7 and we won’t pick the first, or any of the singles, but you gotta give us something commercial first.” We know labels want to play safe, and want what will generate as much money for them, as possible, especially in our current vanilla music market. So, could this have been the case with DWAS? (I won’t speculate into Bruno’s alleged gambling debt, because there’s really no proof to that, and that’s none of our business.) What are your thoughts?

AnglerfishbraBENUS 5,057 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago i think we are just in a really cool new era where she is just making things she’s proud of and it doesn’t all have to be about mental health and pain etc. i think there’s validity to your thought, but i think we are going to see her take many forms over the next couple years at a faster pace than she typically would. 9 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
codymonster 8,069 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) From a business perspective, I think this is her keeping her “Lady Gaga is a chameleon/can do anything” label alive. She is about to release a movie showing her acting chops, an album that is probably going to be more pop/dark showing her more out there persona, and this song is to show her more “star is born” side of her. She has built fans in different areas of her artistry, and I feel like this was a way to reach the GP before two “GP risky” projects come out. That’s my best guess anyway. Just trying to safely get her back into the public to warm the world up to her before she brings the crazy that I’m sure Joker and LG7 will bring.

Nessun Dorma 1,041 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago We can never tell, but I don’t think that’s the case. Bruno approached Gaga and the concept was his idea. By this point, I believe Gaga earned the right to make her music with creative freedom, without label restrictions. Tbh I don’t see her agreeing with any situation other than that. find your freedom in the music 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 90,596 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago We have to be glad the label pushed a collab with a legend like Bruno and not some random rising rapper from TikTok If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

weed 69,172 Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Am I delusional to think Interscope does not give any requests or demands to Gaga? I feel like they let her do whatever she wants, complete control, at least since Chromatica (idk if there's any label tea from then). She is... Lady Gaga! 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me why I had these EXACT thoughts while driving to work yesterday and blasting DWAS It just means LG7 is gonna have the experimental bops we’ve been craving 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need Gaga to push the envelope, again, and bring something fresh and risky! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darcklighter22 2,115 Posted 40 minutes ago Share Posted 40 minutes ago That rumors been going around for a little while now. Do I believe it. Maybe? From what we have heard so far from LG7 it does sound very industrial and experimental. Having seen Gagas relationship with her label it's been the case in the past but not sure where she stands with them now. It's entertaining to say the least and let's also not let this hyper fixation take away from enjoying DWAS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaxboy 4,014 Posted 17 minutes ago Share Posted 17 minutes ago Does Park MGM (or MGM entertainment) have anything to do with the collaboration? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
