Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 RedOne hasn't produced a solid smash since Nicki Minaj's Starships two years ago. And I haven't really liked any of his latest works since then. If we're here to take chance (and risks) in pursuit of giving Gaga yet another smash hit, I'd rather have her work with the producers whom she has never worked with before such as Stargate, Benny Blanco, Calvin Harris, or even Max Martin. 3 of them are constant hit-makers, while the other one's a personal favourite of mine who gave Rihanna her biggest hit to date. Oh, i mean RedOne and anyOne that can give her fourth #1.. :whitney: "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arturo 40,746 Posted May 25, 2014 Author Share Posted May 25, 2014 My hopes for ARTPOP by the end of the tour (assuming it ends on November 24 in France) U.S - 800k Canada - 160k U.K - 300K Japan - 250k France - 100k Germany - 100k Australia - ~50k Total from Mediatraffic - 2.2M Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they discount it, I think it can be sold 750-775k by the time... :roll: BTW we may see if C2C can bring ARTPOP's sales up... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These two moves though (Gypsy as a single and a second ACT EP release ala TF/TFM can change completely thescenery for AP). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These two moves though (Gypsy as a single and a second ACT EP release ala TF/TFM can change completely thescenery for AP). and if Gypsy smashes it will create enough momentum for ACT II and therefore ARTPOP as a whole entity to do well enough to be considered a commercial success (not BTW/TFM but prove that Gaga still has commercial power). Honestly they only need to release Gypsy to get things started. Radio will definitely give Gypsy more than a fair chance. The only ones who don't want it as singles (like I did before) were Gaga stans who wanted more experimental singles but everyone else seems to like it, unlike GUY which wasn't universally liked. Please interscope just release it, even if only on radio at first to see how it does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a US release is necessary for Gypsy - it'd (possibly - but unlikely) become a hit by the time the tour's ended, and not be needed anymore. If they release it in the US, they shouldn't do any promotion there unless it's big promotion, tbh. I'm here for a single release outside the US, with promotion in Japan, Australia, South Korea and Germany. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I said just release it on radio, if it does really well than sure promo it at least once, if it doesn't so be it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only ones who don't want it as singles (like I did before) were Gaga stans who wanted more experimental singles but everyone else seems to like it, unlike GUY which wasn't universally liked. - Gaga can extend the Tour in 2015 and make it a huge success. Please interscope just release it, even if only on radio at first to see how it does. Actually the most important piece of the puzzle is the ACT II. The second ACT has some + that can change everything. Let me explain: - The second ACT is an EP, which means that it will be cheaper. - The second ACT will be small which means that it is easier for the public to "consume" it and appreciate + its easier to get good reviews from critics. - It can be sold together with the first ACT like TF/TFM - If the second ACT does well then the whole era will become a success, for example: lets say that the second act becomes a commercial success and considering that its cheap it sells 4M WW (which is not a huge number but its good enough). The first ACT considering that Gypsy will be released as well will reach 3M WW with the help of the second act. Then lets say that they sell 1M copies together. Then the whole project will sell 8M+. Not bad, huh? The problem is that because it will have the name ARTPOP on it, the critics and the media will try to tear it apart. This is why Gypsy and the Jazz album are needed this year, to draw good attention and reviews for Gaga + commercial success. It also needs very careful handling from Gaga's team.
