And not since Jackson has such a globally famous, white-hot pop star had such a rise and precipitous fall: “ARTPOP” is on track to lose $25 million for her label, Interscope, prompting *rumors of imminent layoffs.
Gaga’s looks have become crude, obvious, off-putting. Most recently, she wore a grotesque, disfiguring grill to the YouTube awards, turned her face into a Picasso-inspired funhouse reflection and wrapped herself up like a burn victim.

Lady Gaga, for the first time in her career, seems culturally tone-deaf, releasing an album that’s ostensibly about modern art — a “reverse Warholian expedition,” as Gaga so loftily describes it — to a public that doesn’t care.
affjas wait they went IN
but @ them saying Troy quit cause the album had no hits. didn't she fire him? (supposedly lol)
I took Do What U Want's lack of video as Gaga saying it was never a single in her mind. The ultimate FU to her management. So, technically, we only have Applause. Which either means the second single smash is coming or Applause and ARTPOP in general were a buzz single/album for part II and Cheek to Cheek and Volantis.
Must try all you can to remain positive in these hectic times.

True. Everything I said about Volantis is clearly false. The ultimate let down - forget the lack of promotion, the general disinterest, the app being let out with only one fourth of it working. No. I was so pumped for Volantis.
“I have a lot of experience in this area,” says one longtime label executive and producer. “Artists have a lot of help on their first albums, and they’re open to a lot of help, and they are very smart collaborators and make great work.”
Once that work results in great success, he says, the artist invariably believes they are solely responsible. “Time and again, they feel like they could have done it themselves, and if they had done it their way, it would have been even bigger,” he says. “So they jettison the people who helped them get where they are and hire people who are less powerful, who let them do what they want. I think that may be where Lady Gaga is.”

I think he quit I doubt she fired him

She then rambled about her struggles with sobriety and said that by collaborating with her, Koons was “giving a gift to young artists all over the world,” her convoluted logic belying self-congratulation.
