Is "Lady Gaga" the most powerful name in the industry?
The Power in "Lady Gaga" Does Gaga's name hold more POWER than them all?
Is Gaga's name the most powerful in the music industry? We have seen the media use her name to get the attention of her enormous fanbase and even members on atrl use her name to get that hit thread... But is Lady Gaga's name more powerful than every other artist in the industry?
edit: well, out of her contemporaries (i.e. Rihanna, Perry, Minaj) absolutely yes. But Beyonce and Britney both have power in their names as well. So it could be either, excluding Madonna of course. But I still by my first statement, Stan Goggles
One of the strongest social media presences.
One of the largest and most dedicated fanbases.
One of the strongest global touring acts.
One of the most internationally famous celebrities alive.
One of the best selling artists of her generation.
One of the most reported on with most media coverage.
One of the wealthiest (if not THE) musician of her generation.
One of the strongest brand endorsers/product pushers.
etc.
I can't think of another musician who ticks all the boxes she does.
Plus, she probably has the most control over her career (not only in the board room, but in the studio) so...SHE genuinely is the powerful one, not "Brand Lady Gaga" with suited CEOs making the decisions.
Out of the current girls? Yes. Rihanna is close, but Gaga refuses/ignores so many offers for producing/writing that any opportunity to jump onboard is going to outweigh any of her peers.
