I have seen various arguments that the haters use against the monsters that gaga only lasted from 2009-2013 and an artist like Legend X lasted a decade.
First of all, ARTPOP DID NOT PERFORM (FLOP) like an album like Bionic.
Did Bionic have a top 10 hit, and a top 15 hit, with great airplay?
Did Elusive Chanteuse sell over 500,000 copies, making it a gold album?
Did Spirit Indestructable have a successful tour?
Nope....
So please haters...pshhh... I see you trying to equate ARTPOP to Elusive Chanteuse or Spirit Indestructible, when it did not flop like those albums. Yes, I agree, it's a HUGE decline, but it is not a flop.
So ARTPOP era lasted until 2014, which Gaga was able to sell tickets for her artRAVE in that year, so that adds 2014 to her career lifespan.
Now lets go to #1 album C2C, which has sold GOLD in the late 2014, early 2015. Plus, Gaga is going on tour and has successfully sold tickets for her C2C tour to last until July. So you can add 2015 to her career lifespan since she successfully sold tickets to tour for more then half of the year.
So nice try haters, get it right, Gaga has lasted so far from 2009-2015, that is SEVEN Years! I admit, we are struggling, but we are NOT DEAD. Thank you.
edit: I did not mean to single out the Fighers. I am not trying to start a stan war. I just wanted to clarify something. Sorry. I AM actually a huge fan of Legend X, and want her to come back.
