Talent always wins. 

[Cpeer 5,077]

Oh wow who would thought Ed would flop

[whoresup 3,454]

Who’d have thought back when Ed was smashing and Gaga wasn’t that this would happen.

Talent always wins in the end 

[darkgaga 7,165]

And he had a full tracking day I assume?

[Idefix1999 514]

And yet he sells out multiple stadium shows in onr city... 

People would fight for tickets, but be like "He has a new album out?"

[AkariGaga 1,256]

this is his 3 Rd flop album in a row,right?

Subtract and Autumn Variations were slow and more acoustic songs, so I can understand that they weren't as commercially successfull, but didn't he say that with this new album series he was aiming for the GP and the charts again? Soundwise he is back with the same kind of songs he had on "=", but somehow it does not work out for him this time...

Or maybe people are just confusing it with Ava Max' latest album

To think that this man was the most listened to person in the world just a few years ago... Yeah I knew that people would eventually get tired of his generic and overplayed music. Like the way his music and style evolved for the worse instead of improving is crazy, usually it tends to be the contrary for such huge artist at still a young age

Gaga's curse strikes again.

I think it's the 4th one 

[NotoriousEden 621]

Does this include the base album ?

[Kayioshka 3,607]

See Ava Max, "don't click play" didn't manifested any success. 

Ed called his album "play" and it worked. 

But "Mayhem" is even better. 

[APPLAUSE4YOU 457]

What is a good debut number for an artist of his stature? What did Mayhem debut with??
