  4. Typically, songs from major musicians launch with what often turns out to be their biggest consumption figures. Interest in the latest from a superstar usually arrives with plenty of built-in anticipation, as well as traditional promotion. It's common these days for tracks to launch with sizable sales and streaming sums, and then for those numbers to begin to dwindle as radio airplay takes over and keeps songs alive–or not. Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars' new collaboration isn't a normal smash, though. Their "Die with a Smile" is proving to be not only a huge hit, but the kind that breaks with tradition and continuously improves. "Die with a Smile" rules both of Billboard's worldwide rankings–the Billboard Global 200 and the Billboard Global Excl. US–once again this week. The tune has now dominated the tallies for four consecutive frames, and it's only getting bigger and bigger as time passes. Billboard reports that the song sold another 9,000 copies globally in the past tracking frame, but it seems to be streams that are keeping the track at No. 1. "Die with a Smile" racked up another 117.4 million plays on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music all around the planet in the past tracking period. That's a huge number for any cut–especially one that has already been out in the world for a month now. "Die with a Smile" has been improving its streaming figure each week it's been on the two global rankings. The single launched with 75.2 million plays. That means the cut's streaming count has surged 56% in a northerly direction in just a few frames. In its second turn on the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. US, "Die with a Smile" earned 97.2 million streams. That number grew to 105.8 million in its third frame on the lists. In week four, it managed 111.4 million. Now, it's gained by another six million plays to hit a new all-time high. - "Die with a Smile" has lived on the pair of worldwide charts for five weeks, spending four of them on top. At the rate it's still being played and purchased, Mars and Gaga's tune could easily continue to run the show for another few stints. The song brought both superstars to the summit for the first time on the lists that were introduced in 2020. Link

  16. Drifting through the winds of popular culture and probably wanting to start again at least occasionally, it seems reasonable to assume that in 2024, Katy Perry feels like a plastic bag. It’s dumbfounding that at this critical juncture in her career, 143 is the record she is releasing. Despite reuniting with writer-producer Dr. Luke in an ostensible search for past glory, 143sounds phoned in. The material here is so devoid of anything distinguishing that it makes one suspicious it’s a troll or cynical attempt for the campy realm of so bad it’s good. No stranger to a thrashing, Perry might as well have transformed into a fish, jumped into a barrel, and told critics, “Shoot me!” Regardless of intent, it’s possible to read this album as a metatext on the disposability of so much pop. 143 is Perry saying, “Nothing matters,” except instead of a “lol” preceding it, it’s a heart-hand emoji. 143 is a very confident album, but after one highly scrutinized flop and an entirely ignored one (which is more tragic?), said confidence is misplaced and comes without real swagger. There’s nothing about Perry’s voice that suggests she’s right for an album of straight dance music, even if that's not exactly what 143is—she’s prone to Broadway-ish belting with the slightest, whitest vibrato and emotionally, there’s a consistent edge to Perry’s voice that often sounds angry or stressed. The causal rage paired well with the guitars that characterized her early hits and gradually evaporated from her sound. How little Perry has to say is stunning. Four decades of female experience (and six writers) yield generic girl-power sentiment like: “Sexy, confident/So intelligent/She is heaven-sent/So soft, so strong.” Perry sings “Woman’s World” with the deliberateness English speakers use when trying to convey something to someone who doesn’t speak the language. When she does weave evocative imagery, the vibes are off. “Say the right thing, maybe you can be/Crawlin’ on mе like a centipedе,” is supposed to be a come-on in the horny “Gimme Gimme” but yuck, who wants bugs in their bed? “Lifetimes,” whose rolling pianos are supposed to evoke rave but end up sounding like slightly sped up Rhye, pays tribute to her daughter in a string of choruses that all say the same thing: “I’ll love you for life,” “I’m gonna love you till the end,” and “Baby you and me for infinity.” The tension-and-release low end of the track yields not drops but gentle puts. This is kiddie-coaster EDM. The guests here—Kim Petras, Doechii, JID, and 21 Savage—seem at best obliged, at worst blackmailed. Max Martin nabs a co-production credit on the Petras-featuring “Unholy” rip-off “Gorgeous,” and it has not a lick of that special Martin spice. 21 Savage drops some of his worst-ever bars, which is actually a feat given his record, but at least his contribution deprives Perry of being responsible for 143’s worst lines, though barely—in the “E.T.” rip-off about A.I., she sings, “I’m just a prisoner in your prison.” Like Witness, 143 is a spectacular flop, but it’s a strange one—like one of those restaurants that looks nice and has an expensive menu but serves food so mid as to be insulting. It’s worse than awful. At least awful is something you can direct your rage at, deriving catharsis in the process. Aside from some fleeting hellacious decisions, like the jump scare of a warbling child’s voice that opens the cloying final track “Wonder,” 143 is mostly just…there. The flop cycle is a hard thing to get out of. For one thing, popularity begets popularity. Absent that kind of momentum, a dimmed star needs a once-in-a-career single like “We Belong Together” or “What’s Love Got to Do With It” to shake her from her funk. 143 has no such undeniable classic. So now what? Consider what occurs to one’s sense of self when universal praise dries up—that kind of identity-dissolution is woven into 143’s chintzy fabric. One day you’re ablaze, burning yourself into corneas the world over. Then you’re just a smoky outline of what you once were. And then you’ve disappeared entirely. Just like a firework. https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/katy-perry-143/

  21. The songs that are on here are gonna be Lady Gaga's interpretations - Harley's versions will be in the movie and on the OST. Pretty sure the version of That's Life that we hear in that newer trailer is the Harlequin album/Lady Gaga version since it's her full voice and not the Harley one we hear in other singing scenes.

  25. kinda off topic but seeing many promising and up and coming artists like Olivia, Chappell, Raye, Jade and even to some extent Addison Rae, to established artists like Cardi B, having inspirations from Gaga or listen to her just makes me happy 😭 makes me feel validated for choosing the right woman to stan when I first step into pop culture back in 2009 🥹 thank I god I was caught in a bad romance and didn’t feel like a teenage dream 😭

  34. Many of the little complainers here on this forum truly do not deserve Gaga. This woman not only created a pop album, but she also made a companion album to a movie she feels so strongly about. I guarantee you she had us in mind when making this album, so the wait for LG7 is not as bad, and yet here some of y'all are, just complaining and never satisfied. This is the truth that many here need to understand: Gaga does NOT owe anyone anything. She became an artist because of her vision for her music, and WE signed up to support her because we believed/believe in her as an artist. If you expect a certain bespoke album that you get to dictate what should sound like, then I hate to break it to you, but you need to find a new fave. Artists grow and so does their creation process. To pigeonhole someone to a sound you crave because of your nostalgia does not make you a fan. It makes you an entitled self-proclaimed LM who has zero appreciation to the work and dedication Gaga puts into her work. You either sign up for her evolution or stop calling yourself a fan. I'm sure she wouldn't be happy about the negativity that you keep drowning her with every time she makes an artistic choice that doesn't align with your vision. She's the artist, you're not.

  39. I wouldn't worry about most of it being covers. Knowing Gaga, she wouldn't make this album if it didn't have a reason to exist and the snippets we've heard so far are vastly different from traditional jazz arrangements.
