Main Pop Girl Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Lady Gaga has finally announced the release date of her brand new single, album and app, all called ARTPOP! The hugely anticipated project is set to begin on the 19th of next month, when Gaga releases her new single (no word yet on what this will be called). That Quote

Idk what to say... .I'm just so happy right now. THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I FEEL OMG. The one day this week I've left the house and I get back and this has happened, hahaha! I'm so excited!Am I the only one who thinks the single's coming a bit early tho? I mean it's coming in mid-August and then the album's being released like four months later. She could always release another single before then I guess but it still seems like a while. Quote

Plus with the app release, it could keep everyone busy until then. Ugh I'm kinda pissed about the app tbh. I can't afford a phone with apps, my phone is like 7 years old lol. I hope all the stuff leaks online. Like she should have all the app stuff on her website or a site that looks like an app for other fans you know? I don't want to feel left out things =/ Quote

She might even release a computer-only version, as she said you didn't have to have an iPhone to use the app. Quote

I'm sure a post-release app will still be interesting, but it could have given fans something to engage with while they wait for the album, too - missed opportunity, in my opinion. There'll surely be a web-based version, too, they wouldn't limit something so potentially huge to just Android/iOS users. Quote
Baby V Alex Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Finally you will get something guys, maybe if she drop the weirdness, I'll be a monter again Quote

You're right, although I'm sure they'll still be able to get some promo in for the singles through the app. But I get the feeling the app will be more conceptual rather than promo-based. Maybe I've been looking at Biophilia too much but I'm hoping it will be more interesting than the average celebrity app. Quote

Cypher Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 In all honesty, just with the way apps and the modern music industry run, I don't expect this to last anymore than maybe a year and a half, two years if lucky...unless Gaga's team actually plans on updating the app continuously. Granted yes, I am very excited for the album and the launch of the app, I'm just nervous about looking into the the project with a long-term mindset. I'd rather just enjoy it when it comes out and not be disappointed when it dies out. <-- Was that too real? Quote

Completely agreed! Knowing Gaga I'm sure it won't be just a typical app. In all honesty, just with the way apps and the modern music industry run, I don't expect this to last anymore than maybe a year and a half, two years if lucky...unless Gaga's team actually plans on updating the app continuously.

But I can see it lasting for the duration of the album as well as the tour she'll undoubtedly go on.And maybe by that point we'll have an ARTPOP Part 2 and she'll release a sequel to the app. Quote

Oh boy.............................................I'm sure she has enough material for ARTPOP Pt. 7. Quote
