benn90 0 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 This is horrible! And I actually have to admit it's her own fault. She hardly did any promo after she was gone for 2.5 years. You just can't expect high album sales after the mess that was the 2nd part of the btw era, such a long brake and no promo. 275k isn't even that bad with this conditions. :( 2.5 years?! MTN was released only just 2 years ago and she was touring and releasing perfumes till early this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathanholland 5,322 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 2.5 years?! MTN was released only just 2 years ago and she was touring and releasing perfumes till early this year. Marry the night didn't get any airplay, the tour was for her fans and her perfume didn't get her more fans on board. Musicaly she was gone for 2.5 years for the gp.

JoPaKi13 15 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Oh my god everyone... We all know that Gaga has been having longitivtiy this year. And that's exactly what we need. We don't need a million copy debut, then just crash and burn... We need like 200k copies every week for the next few months. Just like applause. If ARTPOP does this, it will have longetivity, and a bigger chance of becoming iconic, because everyone talks about it for so long THIS. Completely agree Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vernier 3,786 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Marry the night didn't get any airplay, the tour was for her fans and her perfume didn't get her more fans on board. Musicaly she was gone for 2.5 years for the gp. You do know that 2.5yrs is almost exactly May 2011 which was exactly when BTW was released? So she has been "gone for the gp" right immediately BTW was released? Wow, never heard of an era ending right after the album was released. Amazing really. Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykel55 0 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Yep, DWUW slays the GP. All my friends love it, radio loves it, critics love it. I predict like a cascade of sales. DWUW chart success -----> GP realizes not all the album is like applause -----> ARTPOP sales climb Yeah same here. I played a bunch of new stuff with my friends in the car and they wanted to hear do what u want again. I hope it climbs the charts in the coming weeks.

Whiskey Mouth 322 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 i love gaga the underdog. actually, i'm very turned on by these projections. :heart: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
superman 32 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I honestly think it'll end up selling more than Billboard's projected numbers. Might be wrong, but I don't think anyone predicted that Eminem would sell over 700,000 in the first week. And as Billboard points out in that article, it's hard to predict. Honestly though I ****ing hate this ****. Everyone being so obsessed with figures and numbers for the opening week. I hate people putting her down but we all know the truth so **** everyone else. they projected eminem to sell 750 000 after the first two days of its release so they missed it by a few thousands.plus eminem stayed number one the whole week but ARTPOP fell to number two already.so their prediction i think will be precise or perhaps off by a really small margin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstere 0 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 This is a shame, because it is such a good album. I feel like the public backlash has a lot to do with it, people won't even give it a chance. I don't really care however. I love the album, its not on the same par as BTW was for me but it's still a great album. Gaga will rise again, but as long as she's making this fab music I don't really care.

tiffa 169 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I wonder how many will sell now that the Golden Tickets are confirmed...... We only know of ONE winner, right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgalriri 1,124 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 so someone has to sell in order to be an artist by what you just said........... i'm saying Interscope won't keep her if she continues to flop. they will start losing money off her.
