I wrote a lot of music for ARTPOP and I've been writing more as well. I have thought about putting out the second act and right now I'm just getting ready for the tour. It's actually very different from what is on the first act, I think that's why I say it will be "Act 2" because it's a progression. It's very important that when I put music out that you hear a really strong evolution because I'm changing every time. So, I'm hoping to put it out within the next year and I'm also very excited that me and Tony Bennett are putting out a jazz album called "Cheek to Cheek" together this year.
At least there's hope that Gypsy will be released, then. Or maybe she'll can the era soon and then focus completely on the tour. Then come back with Act II (hopefully in Q1) and then tour some more with tha new material.
