Why is Gaga "promo sensitive"

But you also can't fault the fans for wanting to see her. It's a lead single and she still hasn't even performed it

These are not the kind of performance I'm talking about and you know it  

Stage

Crowd

Vocals

She threw an entire show at Coachella together last minute. There's no excuse for not popping up somewhere randomly to perform her banger of a lead single.

Guys, I think y'all aren't ready for her genius promo... 

I bet that :

She changed her style for this era by bleaching her eyebrows and having black hair. She won't do like for her other eras, by changing her style too much to be recognizable for the GP. Her MVs are going to follow a same lore with the same alter-ego and easthetic. So she will be able to boost "Disease" by this way. Her songs will communicate to each others. And she will get a big boost by making concerts at Coachella and Copacabana.

Someone said on another thread that the first single has always been kind of like a fire starter, not the main event (PI, SL) and then the 2nd single is where she usually goes all in promo wise (MR, ROM). 

I believe for all releases she tries to change it up, not do the same promo formula that she has done before. 

Give it time. 2025 is going to be huge.

I mean...she was in a random club performing Perfect Illusion to a couple dozen people literally the day after it released. Making appearances at every radio station to talk about the song and her upcoming album. Joanne technically got TWO tours  

I don't hold anything promo related against her for Chromatica 'cause covid happened.

I'm nettled tonight and exhausted so I'm definitely being more abrasive that I usually would, pardon me 

I don't care about promo for promo's sake, literally could not care less if she ever showed up on the top 100 again, I just want her to be enthusiastic about whatever she's doing. I would have preferred for Disease to come out in 2025 if she was just gonna do absolutely nothing with it.

Even Happy Mistake (probably her best ballad since Dope) has a performance, like come on  if that's the kind of music you want to release and perform then do it. Don't throw a banger out there to die of neglect of you aren't feeling it.

Yes but see what you said about Perfect Illusion performed to 'a couple dozen people'  - I remember at the time on this forum A LOT of fans were incredibly disappointed, having meltdowns, and leaving the fanbase, because the promo wasn't "up to their standard". At the time, it didn't live up to the promo we had seen before (ARTPOP, Born This Way) which will never be topped.

Like I said. She tries something different with each release, and at the time we reflect on old eras and disappoint ourselves because she's not filling live tv/radio spots. Don't get me wrong, I wish she would just as much as you, but I have learned to be patient with her and trust the vision she has for the roll out.

 

Like Chromatica was supposed to be, they want to make it a Hollywood blockbuster movie type feeling, and that is definitely happening.

If she released in 2025 we would have rioted because of the CBT film "LG7 GAGA RETURNS". It would have felt like yet another broken promise, especially with all the Joker/Harlequin release. 

I understand we want more from Disease, however I love the lowkey vibe she's giving off with these very tame performances/interviews so far.

This song is for the fans, enjoy it.

She's finally giving us DarkGa/RockGa vibes and all people do is bitch about how it charts and how it's not adult contemporary pop or Jazz. Her label supposedly likes the album and is supportive if it. Wtf do yall want from her?

I understand peoples frustrations that the lead single didn't get a ton of promo like most lead singles normally do, but given the timeline and lack of physical release, it would seem that Disease was a promo single meant to have the fanbase hold space until 2025. The November/December holiday gap is real and would have upended any promo people are "missing" this year anyway. Not that their was much to go on anyway, all the award shows are in the Spring. 

same, also she didn’t specifically say it’s the lead single, I remember during the Joker 2 WB dinner when she revealed LG7, it’s says ‘October LG7 First Single’. It didn’t imply the song being a lead. So it could be a buzz single for all we know. But then again I may be coping because of the lack promo disease gets 💀

[NibbCub 187]

Lol, she shot a video and recorded several performances of it. Did a few Tiktoks. She also has remixes ready to drop. She's obviously excited about the album and is engaged and ready to do more promo when the album comes out. Don't forget she also did the Olympics, promoted a movie and released a surprise album this year.

To hold space, just like Defying Gravity I didn't know that was happening, that's really powerful
