I really underestimated Troy's impact on turning her songs into hits

nope, you are overestimating it.
Gaga's songs have ALWAYS BEEN highest charting on digital SALES, before ANYTHING else.
Which means Gaga's star power used to turn them into hits, not Troy
Applause was weeks and weeks refusing to leave top 10 on itunes until ****ing radio decided that the song has potential and started playing it again (after they literally left it to die at around 50M AI).
Alejandro, TEOG, literally all of her songs have done better on digital in comparison to radio.
None of Gaga's peers have a song as low peaking on radio Audience as Gaga. Gaga's biggest radio hit is Bad Romance and that says a lot considering it peaked at 120M AI (which in today's standards would be like 160-170M ) which is still much lower than Rihanna, Katy etc. all of those have 200M Ai songs.
And Bad Romance has still sold more than any Rih song besides Love the way you lie.
