She was recording in the studio from August until the tour started.
Album release is scheduled for October - November release. Lead single will most probably be in the break in July - August.

Just common sense.

If they're smart, they will NOT go about this like they did with BTW. Do not hype anything like that ever again. It might result in amazing first week sales, but it totally backfired IMO. It annoyed more people and did nothing to help her image. She needs a normal release with good songs and she will have a successful era. None of this painting the album cover on subways and buildings and ****. Obnoxious.

This album was suppose to be big + Gaga left off on a good start so they would promote BTW to the fullest ! And for the first week sales was amazing & im counting the amazon sales because Billboard counted it ! She sold 2,200,000 copies in 1 yr for born this way & 6Mill WW ! The only thing that was lacking in this era was the single choices ! Other than that the era was fine ! People complaining that The Fame sold 14 mill, yeah with a Rerelease ! Her team was smart putting it on the trains and buildings because thats what catches peoples attention rather than putting it in a magazine page !

Everyone is taking the promotion for BTW to seriously, it was fine ! All she needs this era are better single choices + spaces them out & not rush the singles so quickly

I'd rather have Gaga give me everything and even if she's flopped (which she didn't), she gave it her best effort and that's what counts.

I don't like Lazy, non existent Gaga. She loves her work and wants to promote it.

Yes but there's being lazy and then there's being promotionally strategic.

How can you be lazy by promoting ?

Read the original quote; it said he didn't like 'lazy' Gaga that didn't promote. I said there's a difference between being lazy and being strategic about the way she promotes.

I got a feeling that she has really/almost completed the album and it will be released this year. That day (6-8) when she was so excited about it being finished so she tweeted about the date to unveil the title.. Must be something guys.. she just couldn't randomly tweet it.

[BadKidBrodie]

I hope it's released this year

I suspect she sent demoes to her label and then her, Haus and her label are going to decide what songs will make it on to the next record. Once they narrow it down she will fine tune and master the tracks. It should easily be ready this year unless the label really dislikes the direction of the album or her team/label decide to wait until after the BTWB ends.

Based on the info we've heard about the development of BTW, I think she sent the album to her label and was originally planning on a 2010 release towards the end of the year(we at least know she had BTW, MTN, Judas, TEoG, Americano and Y&I made during 2010). However, because her label decided to not release her next album until after the tour ended Gaga went back and fine tuned it alot. She also replaced some of the original tracks with newly written ones(such as Heavy Metal Lover). We know the production of many songs including BTW went under heavy alterations, production wise. The album was likely in a finished state by the end of 2010 but she kept remastering and fine tuning the album. I think she in some areas over did that aspect. For example we know TEoG was written and finished back in the summer of 2010 but up until a few weeks before the album was to release she kept fine tuning and tweaking the song adding different things here and there.

I feel her label should have her release the album at the end of the year versus delaying it until the tour ends so she doesn't sit on the album and constantly fiddle with it. I felt TFM was a much more organic and natural album because it was released when it was ready. BTW was overproduced in some areas and Gaga tried cramming too many ideas into one thing. We've seen this happen before for example in the Y&I video.

How much of say does her label actually have? I mean, Lady Gaga has skyrocketed to the top based on her own creative vision. I think she would command authority and make the major decisions about the direction of the album.

[ALΞX]

Gaga made her own decisions during Born This Way, and still sold 6 million worldwide, and a sold out tour, so I doubt they will have that much say at all in the final stages of the album, besides helping pick the songs included.

I don't think they have a massive amount of authority over her. However, if they saw a massive flop a mile away they would tell her to stear away from the direction. I think Gaga is smart enough to have a general idea of what people want out of her versus what she wants to put out. I don't think the label has control in direction(unless she wanted to do something crazy like make an entire album of songs similar to The Queen) other than helping pick songs to go on the next album and saying what they do and don't like.

So, she is basically saying that the whole record is finished? Wow.

This... I don't understand...If the whole album is already done how does she plan to keep it from leaking until next year, and why would she wait so long to release even the title!?

I assume she played the final demos of the songs she recorded for the album for the label, and then they will pick which songs they like, and then she will record the tracks in final form, and have them mastered. Which won't take that long once you already have a list of songs.
