Why didn’t ‘Disease’ click with the GP?

Exactly! Give us a whole album like that and I know myself and the majority of the gp would eat it up 

Yikes. If she did a whole album of DWASes, I would be profoundly out. I’d take a whole album of Just Another Days, but I can’t live for the complete lack of flavor and character on DWAS.

lol I love that she has so many people who are massive fans and yet like such drastic differences in her music. I can appreciate Disease for what it is, unfortunately it’s just not for me. However, I think video is one of her best. She rarely misses with visuals for me. I prefer her stripped way back in her music though.

Gaga seems to have no idea what can connect to GP. All these recent works only cater to die-hard fans and to limit your market/target audience...... that's not what a pop singer should do.

Very disappointed in these recent flops, especially Joker 2 and Disease.

For me it’s a number of factors. The beat is good and there are some decent moments in the production but mixed with the vocal choices she made the song just doesn’t have a huge replay factor for me because ultimately I find it grating. I like things to be smooth. It can be upbeat, a ballad, hiphop, whatever genre you can think of but it has to have a smoothness to it.
 

Nothing Gaga has released since A Star Is Born has smoothness to it. Even Hold My Hand is terrible and grating to try and listen too. Harlequin has moments that are really really nice but ultimately not something I reach for on a drive home from work, or going into the office, or really ever. She seems obsessed with doing anything other than singing in a pleasing manner and it irritates the f*ck out of me. Happy Mistake is a great example! I adore so much about the song but can only listen until the 1:45 mark because once the breakdown and literal screaming starts I’m out. It spikes my blood pressure. 
 

I want a maturely written song with great production ( I literally don’t care what genre she picks) and the singing quality in tone and choices to be smooth. Until she delivers that I will stream to support but definitely not have anything on repeat. Most of my coworkers have said the same things. Most them complaining about how she can’t seem to chill the hell out vocally. Too much chaos 

Agree... her screaming voice is so irritating to listen to, and it does ruin some songs on Harlequin for me. She really doesn't need to go over-the-top with everything every time. ASIB doesn't give her a lesson I guess....

If her fans would have spent the same amount of time that they are wasting on complaining about her over and over, on actually streaming and promoting her music, maybe things would have been different, ya'll can't even make a single go top 10 lol

It's like you guys get excited by announcements and day 1 releases but then just go back to complain and ignore her music.

Literally, the most incompetent fan base of a legendary pop artist.

His fart felt like a kiss

Gworl, we are not solely responsible for her success. She is. She’s the driver of her career. She gonna do what she wants and it’s been apparent for years that she’s either got a crappy label and/or she don’t care.

 

Gaga gon be Gaga. Idk bout u, but the older I get the less I care. 
 

warmly,

 

still an obsessed Gaga fan. But let’s be real.

YEET

It's time the fanbase understood that Gaga is more underground than mainstream

Back in 2008, her music wasn't particularly mainstream, and the US rejected her at first

She created the trend etc and became mainstream in spite of herself

Today, what makes Gaga mainstream is her name

But her recent projects, such as ARTPOP, Joanne and Harlequin, show the opposite

Her projects run counter to the mainstream, and they both succeed and fail

Sometimes it flops and sometimes it succeeds

I love Disease for the underground, industrial and heavy side

Personally, I don't need her to be the number one to appreciate her music or to appreciate her as an artist

I like what I listen to, I like what she does and I like to see her happy

I can't wait to hear LG7 and see her on tour, it's going to be great

Oh my god some of you are just so lame I can’t.

Go stan Taylor Swift or someone boring like that if you want “mature, smooth, soft stripped back” granny music. This is f*cking Lady Gaga ppl! And Disease is metal af! It’s dark, heavy, abrasive, dirty, sexy, untamed and one of the coolest, funnest and most imaginatively intricate songs she’s done in over a decade and I am so f*cking here for a whole wild album like that, as are most of her true OG fans. 

Honestly why even bother stanning her if you clearly don’t get her or don’t live for all the exciting, unique and raw aspects of her.

- GP has no taste

 Real fans will realize that it's her best, highest-quality song to date and LG7 will blow everyone's minds.

I've been a fan since the start, too. Although I've not loved every lead song, I love Disease. I have it on my Apple Music, Spotify, and Tidal.  Maybe it is not a good song; maybe it is a good song. Maybe it is a hit; maybe it is not a hit. I don't care. I like it. Whether LG7 is a success or not, I don't care as long as I love her music.

I wouldn’t be surprised if if interscope drop her. Maybe she needs it.

girl what :saladga: gaga is still one of the biggest Interscope artists, she's a streaming force now, sells out stadiums, always get 1# albums and always gets success on the charts 16 years deep into her career, any other label would jump on the opportunity to have her.

 

Disease is not indicative of anything, can y'all just enjoy the music pls.

The GP tends to ruin the songs I love so yes. Let them play with DWAS while the Monsters have Disease. LG7 is right around the corner and will have more to offer for us. I’m kinda glad disease didn’t take off. This was exclusively for US
