Starting point is 00:00:00 Getting into Lady Gaga as far as her track, Abra-Cadabra and her music video that she just put out as far as covering the specific track. There's a lot of references as far as the specific music video for Abra-Cadabra to Alejandro back in 2010. A lot of similarities when it comes to the color scheme as far as the red, black and white, the religious imagery and the choreography. choreography so you could tell that she was very inspired by by Gaga's Alejandro 2010 so to be inspired on your past music as far as in 2010 and bring that all the way to 2025 it's beyond respectable and impressive as far as the longevity as when you look at Lady Gaga's career as far as when she started as far as now to have die with a smile the track that she put out with Bruno Mars being the number one track in the world and has been on the charts for 24 weeks and it hasn't slid from number one once that's insane so as far as a hit i mean she already has one right but she's still been um she's still been active even with that as she was in the joker movie which i still haven't seen this to this day because i feel like that's a disrespectful movie to all superhero fans let's just
Starting point is 00:01:25 put it like that right so joker two came out but she was uh starring in it she also has something titled Harley Quinn. I guess that was something she put out September 27, 2024. Really never heard of that. I'm probably never going to listen to it. But hey, that's out if you're a Lady Gaga fan, right? And of course, she is a part of Top Gun Maverick. Simply, I'm telling you all that when it comes to Lady Gaga and her influence on music is a disgusting level of longevity and the ultimate testament when it comes to can your music stand the test of time? Like, As far as me going all the way down, I believe her last album. So she started putting out music 2008, I believe. And it's 2025. That is actually insane when you think about it because she has the number one track in the world. Now obviously it's with Bruno Mars, you know, that's something to highlight. As Bruno Morris himself, he has another track in the top three with APT with Rosie that's been on a chart for about 15 weeks.
Starting point is 00:02:31 is the third most played track in the world. So I don't want to take away Lady Gaga's contribution to die with a smile. All I'm going to say is the guy that she has that number one hit with, he also has another hit that's the third most played track in the world. So I'm just going to say maybe Bruno Mars has a lot to do with that success. But, you know, that's neither here nor there because, of course, Abercadabra is the lead up to Lady Gaga's album that's said to come out March 7th. 2025 so the rollout has officially started for Lady Gaga and with Da With a Smile I don't know if that's actually going to end up on the album it it seems like when I look at it it does seem like that was more of a joint collaborative effort
Starting point is 00:03:22 versus a single for Lady Gaga if that makes sense like I think this is a part of Bruno Mars's rollout more than it is late Gaga's but maybe I'm tripping with that one but anyway I'm tripping with that one but anyway Anyways, when it comes to fashion, everybody, everybody knows that Gaga has a history in the fashion industry and she definitely showcases a lot of interesting costumes and outfits. I know I said costume. I'm not trying to be funny. All I'm saying is sometimes I'm a little perplex on the choices as far as putting pieces of fabric together when it comes to Lady Gaga. That's all I'm going to say, because I don't want to get in trouble with her fan base, but all
Starting point is 00:03:55 I'm going to say is it's very interesting the way that she puts, you know, stuff together. But as far as the music video, you know, it's doing pretty well right now as far as for abracadabber. Another thing about Lady Gaga is that she's, she has upcoming performances as far as the I-Hard Radio Innovator Award. That's happening March 17th. And her, she's headlined in Coachella. Wow. April 11th and April 18th. So with that, I mean, she's set up to have a very successful 2025 and her being a part of the most
Starting point is 00:04:29 listen to track currently with die with a smile. I mean, that's only the cherry on top as far as when you look at her career in totality. Because it's insane that almost 20 years from now, you're still at the top of the music industry currently with her track, Die With a Smell. I don't care how she got it to still have that amount of longevity to where people want to check out your track, even if it is with somebody else. That's a testament to longevity. And you always just got to tip your hat and say kudos to the ones who could figure it out and evolve time and time again and withstand the test of time so with that being said click my link to my bio let me know in one of my social medias what do you think about the music video for lady gaga's abracadabber
Starting point is 00:05:14 and will you be checking out her album mayhem when it comes out march 7th 2025
