Spotify Global 🌎 #143 (+3) “Disease” — Lady Gaga (+1,454,401) filtered

Eduardo Paes, Rio's mayor, just tweeted this: "Just so you guys won't think I'm ending Friday upset! "Everybody's in Rio!" If you get it, you get it! [Giving you] Signs!" Earlier today he had a press conference where he mentioned negotiations for the next act to headline a free concert at Copacabana Beach (like Madonna did this past May) were already advanced. Obviously nothing's confirmed/it may turn out to be nothing so take it with a grain of salt, but if it happens it'd be undoubtedly iconic

"Die With A Smile" surpassed "AIWFCIY" and "God's Plan" and is now the 10th longest-running #1 song on global Spotify ever

DWAS is back at #1 on Spotify's TTH playlist and they have the cover. Disease only dropped one spot to #16.

So... Besides charts and stuff.. I am completely infected by Disease. I'm listening non stop. I am am infected by this track. Every single listen is more. I think this is her greatest track ever

Dutch Top 40 #1 (=) DWAS (*tenth week at #1*) Full chartrun: 26-7-4-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 #28 (-3) Disease Full chartrun: 30-26-25-28 The fact Disease is a strong top 30 hit in Netherland while it could have fall hard

Let’s go all the way back to the beginning — when and how did you first get involved with Gaga and her team for this project? It happened sometime last year — I had been working with [“Disease” co-writer/co-producer] Andrew Watt for a while. We [had] worked on a few different things together, and one day he called me and said, “What do you think about working with Gaga?” He said that we would be a great fit to do this project together. So, I met Gaga for the first time in the studio, and it was amazing. I was really excited to work with her, we were off to the races as soon as we met. What immediately appealed to you about the prospect of working with Gaga? I’ve been a fan over the years, she is just a legendary artist. There’s only one Gaga, and she has influenced so many of the artists who are out now. I think her music paved the way for so many people. Selfishly, I did want to see what I could accomplish with her. Just the thought of wondering what a Gaga record would sound like if I produced it was really exciting from the get-go. When you look back on the inception of “Disease,” was there a stated goal with that song? What were you aiming to accomplish? It was just one song in a collection that we worked on together, but fairly early in the process, we all loved it and knew that it would be some kind of cornerstone of this body of work. “Disease” [is] a daring record to me. It’s very aggressive. I wouldn’t say it’s a safe, “nice” song to ease you into things. I was spending some time with my mom the other day and she asked what I’d been working on — I threw on the music video for “Disease,” and she was just stunned and saying “oh my God” a lot. It’s a very in-your-face kind of record. I do all kinds of music, but I love aggressive electronic music. When Watt and I get together, something just kind of happens — with his rock background, we end up bringing in a lot of heavy guitars, and I wanted to make it this cool, industrial synth dance record. When you listen to the final result, I’m pretty happy with how we melded those two things. What do you remember from the studio sessions with Gaga here — were there any particular moments where it felt like things really locked in for you? We all huddled up at the beginning to see if we had any common ground when it came to taste in music and the places we wanted to go with the sound. She was very instrumental in leading that discussion. We all wanted to make something that still felt like it was decidedly Gaga, but always asking the question of “What does that sound like today?” That’s always a challenge, especially with artists who have established themselves so firmly in pop culture, to figure out that balance. Do you do something so different that you move away from the things that you are known for? But if you just do the same thing that you’ve been known for, does that end up feeling like a “more-of-the-same” type situation? I wanted to make sure that we brought the essence of Gaga into this song and all of the things that are so great about her — the drama, the theatrics, that in-your-face sound — but still putting a fresh spin on it. That said, you also cannot overthink things too much on something like this. Ultimately, you just have to get in there and have fun. We definitely had a synergy in the studio. In the beginning, it is kind of a trial run [with a new collaborator]. It felt a little bit like she was feeling me out, trying to figure out where I was coming from when it came to production. But then there was kind of a breakthrough moment — I had been working through something over my headphones, and when I played it out loud, she was just like, “Oh my God, Cirkut, that’s crazy.” And as soon as that happened it was like, “Great, I got through to her.” It’s not like she was difficult to impress, but I wanted us to be on the same page. I treat every project I work on like that — you have to approach it from the mind of being a student always, rather than a know-it-all. I’m always learning from new people. [...] Gaga is very much like that — she is very interested in the sonics of everything. She would say, “Maybe try a different drum here,” or she would hop on the synths and start playing things. She’s a musician and a visionary, and she knew all about the attack, decay, sustain and release settings on a synth. She is all about the details, which definitely sets her apart from a lot of artists. Also, the passion that she puts into her work is amazing. She really lives and breathes and eats and sweats and bleeds this music. https://www.billboard.com/music/pop/cirkut-producer-lady-gaga-disease-rose-apt-interview-1235834421/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social

Shallow has hit 2.6 billion streams on Spotify today

@River wanted to know when they will perform APT.

I MADE THAT that's me speaking

Its so heartwarming to see her in Japan, I love every time she shows up there

Spotify India #24 (=) DWAS 406,975 (new peak in streams)

Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars’ “Die With A Smile” spends its 75th day at #1 on Global Spotify with 9.45 million streams (filtered)

According to the time release. Its her path as artist.

If that's true, he doesn't know how to be subtle, does he? Inb4, Gaga cancels it because he posted this before an official announcement

Its definitely winning Best Picture at the Oscars next year. Bookmark me. Ariana will probably be nominated for Best Actress (and maybe win) but Cynthia won't. She'll keep it cute until Part 2 comes out but in a few years time Cynthia is going to come out and be rude about Ariana like she's rude about everyone else. I kinda hated ALL of the acting choices in the film but that is just my superior taste. The film was still a slay.

iTunes USA 7. (+4) Die With A Smile 36. (+33) Die With A Smile (Sped Up) 44. (+33) Die With A Smile (Instrumental Acoustic) 78. (+6) Disease 97. (+14) Die With A Smile (Acoustic) 107. (+25) ARUTW 199. (RE) Die With A Smile (Live In Las Vegas)

That's totally different. Synths were a new way of making sounds that broadened the soundscape, basically giving them more to play with creatively. Music is still made with lots of sounds compiled together just as it was before synths. The comparison would be if AI was being used to create music entirely from a prompt. AI generated art completely replaces any creative work from the 'artist'. If it were the same as synths, it would be like AI inventing new colours to use or new types of paint. It doesn't add to the toolbelt of the artist it replaces the artist entirely. Writing and tweaking a prompt isn't creating art

She is meeting Jujutsu Kaisen fans to thank them for making Judas a hit in 2024

aaaaaah praying for a DWAS live performance and maybe even some promo for Disease at a radio show or something. That seems very 2011 but she wouldn’t fly all the way to Japan for nothing.

He knows what he’s doing, and I laughed. That being said, the monsters calling him fake country in the replies should stop being clowns. It makes us all look dumb. Stop parroting the same narrative that ignorant people use just because he may block DWAS again. Honestly, considering the thinly veiled racism I saw in the comments for his performance, I think it’s pretty bold that he performed anyway when they weren’t gonna give him a single award.

Today while I was driving I instinctively did this while at the red lights: The driver of the car next to me thought I was having a stroke/heart attack

5 dates

isn't it funny, how Disease is #143 and Katy's latest Album 143 can be ranked as Disease?

Gaga and Bruno are on the cover of Spotify’s Today’s Top Hits and DWAS is #1. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DXcBWIGoYBM5M?si=GskaltKGQraJrsly96tm1Q&pi=u-FHsN06w8RLer

Migrating from the US after Trump’s win, slay

Whenever I see her in Japan I iku iku

Fun Fact: Gaga performed "Just Dance" on MNET COUNTDOWN (a music show in Korea) during The Fame era. Mnet Asian Music Awards is like the year end awards for asian music, biggest in K-Pop. In pop terms, Asia's Grammys/VMAs or whatever u wanna compare.

inb4 it's real and not AI and she's trolling us it's kesha after all

Spotify monthly listeners: 1 Bruno Mars 134,265,304 (+171,599) 2 The Weeknd 119,958,607 (-7,926) 3 Lady Gaga 113,987,120 (+26,981) 4 Billie Eilish 105,901,324 (-105,159)

For those interested: This is my Reaction to the "Disease" Music video + a little Review/Analysis what it could mean. What are your thoughts on the MV? Should I do a Pop X Plained Episode for it?

Given the number of people who don't see the problem with that, it's no wonder that so many people here seem to lack any kind of art/media literacy when you can't see the importance of art being created by a human being.

Gaga making a surprise performance at an Asian based award show would be so 2011 I would actually gag

She said "Your phags needs make this #1"

Infected? Have you tried Nuretec ODT?

So I'm nostalgic and reading old articles a lot atm Today I read this one about a guitarist auditioning for the Monster Ball: (Full article in a spoiler because it's long) https://guitarmessenger.com/auditioning-for-lady-gaga/ And how the auditions he went to ended: "Yeah actually the guys who got the gig were really awesome! This guy named Ricky Tillo and another dude named Jesus."

THIS FAN BASE IS INSUFFERABLE

old people.

big day for ava i know shes excited to hear what elton will sing

love that for her. feels like she has taken every opportunity possible (in the best way) during this era and it has paid off tenfold for her.

they already performed it fake fan

aaaa-AAAAA, screaming for me baby aaaa-AAAAA, like you're gonna die aaaa-AAAAA, poison on the inside I could be your antidote tonight

i think its time to accept AI is going to become part of creativity as a tool. its a time just like when people thought synths were going to replace acoustic instruments

I love gaga and I think she's a great actress but she really wasted all that momentum after ASIB...it's tragic let's hope the next film she picks has a WAY better director, script and overall vision.
