Why disease didnt chart

[ItsAnthonyz 248]

I’m going to keep it as short as I can

I think this is part of her strategy and has nothing to do with lack of promotion or bad team management but actually quite the opposite. 
you see first of all she is Gaga and she doesn’t really need that freshman new break trough artist promo anymore.

secondly the main reason isn’t even diseases lack of success. The industry has changed and the lead singles rarely debut at n1. as they are not intended to become massive hits in case it happens its good on them but in reality the GP is really choosing the singles as some songs become trends and some not. 
Back then people didn’t really have access to choose what song is better than another as back then streaming didn’t exist. You had to buy the song in order to listen to it and it happens that the songs that were pushed as singles kinda made the most impact.

now people kinda pick and choose. Proof is Bloody Mary a song that wasn’t even a promo single now to become one of her biggest hits 12 years later, just because of TikTok and ppl digging in her discography.

as joker flopped hard and didn’t give disease any push, also bc of the elections and Christmas I feel that Gaga just wanted to keep her promise releasing the lead just to get a taste of her next album. Once the album is released the gp will kinda decide the best choice for an single

the general public also voted for trump and said joker 2 was bad, so can we really trust them? they have poor taste.

Imo the only reason is because she relies a LOT on promotion and her team and her didn't lift a finger to promote the song

You can't just ignore the fact that Bruno Mars was on the song like that

No but having GP's sweetheart male singer is definitely helping. + the song was performed live a bunch of times, had radio & streaming payola and was discounted at the right moment. The song got waaaaaaaaaay more exposure than Disease

Disease did chart for 3 or 4 weeks, I know the first 2 weeks it was #27 and #58 on Billboard's US Hot 100. Left and re-entered again at #98, its nowhere near as successful as Die With A Smile but it did chart. It also debuted on Global 200 at #14.

It stopped because Gaga's team stopped trying. Always waiting for a moment, paired with social media silence. It is what it is. Seeing how the Harlequin album performed on the charts, gives me a realistic perspective of Gaga charting on her own but much lower than years past.
