LOL. What kind of nonsense do you guys read and believe?
There's hardly any money in albums unless you smash hard compared to other ventures, and making a Gaga album is going to be relatively inexpensive compared to her peers because it's almost entirely created by her and a couple of semi-mainstream producers. When you hire in expensive hitmakers and/or host writing camps to generate enough tracks to cut down to 12+ songs - that's when it costs big money.
The promotion is where money gets crazy, and corporate partners will cover a fair amount of the costs. i.e. Kia, Beats, AmEx, O2 etc. so far. All they'd have to do if they were worried about spending too much is to dial that back - the album itself isn't much of a problem.
Regardless of any of that - how on earth can anyone think an underperforming Gaga album could bankrupt a label as big as Interscope? Especially - if you think an album has that sort of power - when Eminem smashed literally the week before?
Hope she doesn't screw up and forget to give us '"Ratchet", "Tea", and "Temple". Instead of releasing songs on an app, which I don't even see happening, she could just release it in the second volume of the album. We also need that final Bey collab.
I legit thought it was called "Cam to Cam" for a second.
I can't @ everyone already starting to set up expectations for this album. How about we just wait for it, take it as it is, then judge it for what it is and not in comparison to what we expect it to be?
ARTPOP vol 2 already? Just because the first week sales of vol 1 weren't that good doesn't mean it can't have longevity. Shame on her if she pays dust to Sexxx Dreams and Gypsy

She's def got some single choices. But I think she should focus on makin an album that will truly being her back with the masses. I that's what she wants anyway. Anyway the sooner the music the better. Not here for another long ass wait.
