Not to rain on the monsters parade but by saying Gaga somehow wasn't a radio artist is complete bull.
She is indeed smashing with DWUW but she's only top 10 on the pop chart. At a very respectable #7. But by no means, outperforming her past singles.
So why don't we check Pop radio receipts. One cannot use AI due to inflation. If that's what you're going by, that's not comparing apples with apples.
Just Dance #1
Poker Face #1
LoveGame #1
Paparazzi #1
Bad Romance #1
Telephone #1
Alejandro #4
Born This Way #1
Judas #15
The Edge of Glory #3
You and I #7
Marry The Night #14
Applause #4
DWUW #7 (so far)
As you can see the artpop singles are underperforming the btw singles. Applause underperformed btw. DWUW has yet to pass Edge of Glory's #3 peak.
So yeah, cheer for gaga but let's not perpetuate this lie of her doing better on radio than every other era. Audience impressions have increased. Inflation's a beach lol
