Elvis only ever won 3 Grammy's. The Foo Fighters have more Grammy's than The Beatles. I don't need to say anything else about the Grammy's. She's sold 115 Million records Worldwide over 3 albums and the singles released from said albums. That's huge. The potential is there for her to sell over a Quarter of a Billion records. Beyond that? Who knows how far she can go... Will she have a legacy like Elvis? Michael Jackson? The Beatles? No. Very, very unlikely. For that to happen she will need to repeat the success she's seen for another 4/5 Years then simply die. Something that tells you she's popular is the hate she gets from people like seen in this thread. People love to hate on things that are popular. Seeing that we're on a videogame forum, compare her to the Wii's early Years. It was hated because it was popular and different. When you have a hardcore fanbase, like Gaga does... And your songs reach out to Millions more beyond that fanbase, you will be popular and successful. People hate other people liking something they don't. They hate something being more popular than what they like. To show just how popular Lady Gaga is right now, I'm gonna do something simple. Let's compare Facebook page "likes". With some names brought up in this thread. Janet Jackson - 1 Million I think the only 2 music artists on Facebook that have more likes than her are Eminem and Rihanna, both with 50+ Million. She's huge. People love her. People love her music. Her music sells really well. People hate popularity. |
I'm so gland to the legendary Michael to have so many fans, imagine if facebook and youtube existed during his time
Gaga is huge and i love her, but she won't get anywhere close
and why doesn't Adele even receive even a bit of hate!? because she's original, and that's why her album and songs still rule the billboad one year after the album's release
don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^
