Introvert 0 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Yeah same. I've accepted that the album is coming later rather than sooner and I think it's because she knows she needs a BR/PF caliber hit and she simply doesn't have it yet. BTW was a fine album but it didn't meet people's expectations because it didn't have a viral, pop-gold, force-of-nature single that was played at every college party and every nightclub around the world. If ARTPOP doesn't have a comeback single as big as call me maybe or we found love or Tik Tok then her time as #1 pop girl is done. well it won't with that kind of attitude Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Introvert 0 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Okay you guys this is getting ridiculous. ARTPOP was supposed to be out this quarter and all we know is the title. Even worse, it seems to be becoming an industry standard: Azealia dropped her first single and still no tracklist, artwork, or release date for BWET; Beyonce is about to start a sold out tour for an album that we know literally nothing about (unless you somehow count the atrocity that is "Bow Down") I have lost all hope for the music industry at this point atrocity? you have gay pop music ADD Edited March 26, 2013 by Introvert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the gif but what you're saying though The album's coming later because she's working on demo's, not because she has to write a big hit single. She wrote all the previous ones in three minutes. BTW didn't meet people's expectations who were expecting The Fame/The Fame Monster generic pop and to be honest, BTW is still 50% generic pop, so they should be happy If she ever tries to release boring trash like TiK ToK and/or Call Me Maybe we'll be using that gif for the rejection of half her fanbase :pukey: Edited March 26, 2013 by Didymus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaHAMISH 0 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Okay guys, I'm gonna say my expectations, and I hope some of you agree with this: On Lady Gaga's Birthday, she will announce the release dates of ARTPOP and the Single release date, my prediction is May 10th for the Single, the day of the Billboard Music Awards 2013, I don't know about you, but Billboard has been talking a lot about Gaga lately, more than they ever used too, mentioning her in quite a bit they post. She is do a Single performance there! (That's my guess!) The Album will be released in early June, possibly June 10th (My Guess!). I also think that if the Single really is coming in August/September, the VMA's are in August, so that could be a good time for her to release a single, but logically I think that would be promoting a second single etc. :) What do you think??

paper unicorn 0 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 What is with people saying ARTPOP might be generic, released too late, not have a hit? It's not out yet because she's recovering and there's still a bit of work left to make it perfect (best quality vocals, photo-shoots, dare I say it: APP) not because she's hit a creative block! It's almost two years since BTW. Think of the musical growth! And her vocals sounded amazing at BTWB! Born This Way may not have had the biggest hits but over time it's become my favourite by far. Even if ARTPOP doesn't have hits (which I HIGHLY doubt) I'm still gonna love it shouldn't we just enjoy the music? All of this "she's leaving it too late!" stuff... at least we'll be getting it at all! I don't understand how some of you could have such little confidence in her... :( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what you're saying though I don't think she'll write something as basic as those songs ever again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I'll still be happy with ARTPOP regardless of whether it "slays" or not: I loved BTW which was definitely not as much of a commercial hit as her past releases. I only want the lead single to be a monstrous hit out of concern for her career and genuine love for her as a person/artist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The release of ARTPOP will be massive. The preparations will be massive. It's not just about the album, it's also about the app. Tons of work must be put into that app, especially after all her songs are finished. I am quite sure that the only thing that the album/app has right now is a tentative release date. Plus, she's recording another album with Tony Bennett in June. I don't think she would do that while she's releasing her brandnew, overhyped album/app. The planning of this release will be enormous. The pressure is so high. The app needs to be astounding. I don't think anyone cares about the Billboard/VMA awards right now. Performances like that must be planned weeks if not months in advance and she doesn't have time to finish the music/work on the app/record an album with Tony Bennett/prepare her worldwide tour/recover from her not-so-over injury/shoot music video's/perform on random award shows in which she doesn't win anything. I'm expecting a release of some kind in September, but nothing earlier. I think we would know something about the whole ARTPOP project (which, again, is a huge undertaking) if it were thát close.

aaronyoji 2,054 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) atrocity? you have gay pop music ADD in response to the person you quoted: maybe its becoming a trend to let artists and labels figure out **** on their own without having to indulge crazy ass fanbases who have become over zealous in the fact that they think they can control an artist's vision, that they know best, and that everything needs to live up to their impossible standards that they wouldn't have in the first place if they enjoyed the art of music still. and to others: ARTPOP will never live up to expectations because you're expecting something that is completely self-fabricated. you can't complain about something not living up to your expectations when you have no idea what to expect in the first ****in place.

Are you seriously coming at me again? Love it though :clap: The Fame Monster will never be remembered as a groundbreaking, innovative pop record. It is a great album and I LOVE it (let me make it clear for once), but musically it is not like she invented the wheel or something It was very much inspired by 70's/80's music, from disco, glam, pop, goth,... It wasn't new. Of course it wasn't, she's a pop star. Pop stars need to reinvent what's already popular with the masses. Gaga's a pro at that. People seem to think that's not worthy of praise, but I do think it is. Her biggest inspirations are musical innovators, but Lady Gaga will never be remembered as a musical genius. No pop star will, not even Madonna (don't you dare bring up Ray of Light again) Plus, that description of BTW is quite accurate Edited March 26, 2013 by Didymus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way. Unless she does a Rihanna-esque drop-the-lead-single, release-the-album-right-after kinda thing (which I'm not here for at all). It seems like we'll either have: (a) ****ty-as-**** and minimal-to-no promo for ARTPOP for it to come out by the time she said it would or (b) a whole lot more waiting ahead of us (this is what I have my money on) either way, life is hard for a gaga stan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
