Hope she's learned to avoid pink album covers curse The comments under that tweet are a mess. Thank you Bruno and Bradley for keeping our lights on though Also this is why i insist on separating The Fame and The Fame Monster. Grouping them together makes her career trajectory feel debut heavy and doesn't potray the true longevity of her career. Those were 2 distinct albums with two distinct eras and they both did crazy numbers on their own. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

llemesm 2,290 Posted Wednesday at 04:42 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:42 PM I find these album sales comparisons a little outdated, especially considering how much streaming platforms like Spotify have come to dominate music consumption. Gaga is currently the #5 most-streamed artist in the world, and has maintained that kind of global presence for years, with over 100 million monthly listeners. I'm not sure how directly that translates into equivalent album sales, but surely there's a way to draw a parallel and account for her streaming longevity when measuring an album's success. Looking exclusively at traditional sales figures feels increasingly disconnected from how people actually consume music today.

llemesm 2,290 Posted Wednesday at 04:44 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 04:44 PM Just to put her streaming numbers into perspective: Gaga currently has around 103.5 million monthly listeners and generates approximately 17.9 million streams per day. That's roughly 537 million streams over a 30-day period. Using Luminate's album-equivalent methodology (1,000 premium streams or 2,500 ad-supported streams = 1 album unit), that translates to an estimated 215,000–537,000 album-equivalent units per month across her entire catalog, depending on the subscription mix. Obviously, these aren't traditional album sales, and the figure covers her whole discography, not a single record. But it gives you an idea of the sheer scale of her current consumption and why measuring an artist's success exclusively through traditional sales figures feels increasingly outdated.

Ricardo 8,323 Posted Wednesday at 06:35 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 06:35 PM Streaming has made sales pretty much irrelevant nowadays. I find it funny when fans brag about their fave’s album being #1 on iTunes. Like, who even buys music there anymore? It probably takes three people to get an album to #1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were 2 distinct albums with two distinct eras and they both did crazy numbers on their own. She's not the only one who has an EP/re-issue combined with the LP/original issue. I think it happens with Taylor as well. But I do see where you're coming from and pretty much all the other fanbases on X called this tweet out for the first column being two albums.
