As when it comes to my Lady Gaga coverage, safe to say, a lot of people definitely enjoy it to the point where I have even more for you. And with that being said, at Lady Gaga's show, there was this interesting screen that was put up, which I'm showing right now, analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. But essentially speaking, basically,
Starting point is 00:00:36 The screen displays the iconic line, quote, you've been a very bad girl. Dot, dot, dot, Gaga, end quote. Accompanied by the B emoji. So safe to say this was from Beyonce, right? And then Lady Gaga replied saying, quote, is that a telephone request? Hold on now.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Now, if y'all don't know, taking y'all down memory lane, as when you look at the overall landscape of Lady Gaga and Beyonce, Safe to say, they had a phenomenal, some will say a notorious effect on the masses. As in 2009, when I was just a wee little lad, Lady Gaga and Beyonce had a specific track called Telephone. I know that ain't who I think it is. Yes, the same telephone that's hinted at on this screen as far as a part two. So the song's telephone became an instant pop hit. And originally, fun fact, it was written for it.
Starting point is 00:01:36 for Britney Spears. But it became a pop hit and it peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. You guys. And then of course it topped the U.S. pop songs chart.
Starting point is 00:01:49 It hit number one in Belgium in Bulgaria and Denmark. And of course non-countries in total as far as other countries, you know what I'm saying, overall. So when you look at it being a
Starting point is 00:02:09 multi-platinum certified hit as far as RIAA being considered. And of course, it's iconic Jonas Akralund directed video with jail break and road trip themes. It ended up also winning MTV at the VMAs. So when you look at this in totality, Lady Gaga and Beyonce is just out here notoriously affecting the masses ever since,
Starting point is 00:02:34 well, they've been doing that for quite some time, right? So in the big year of 2025, Bob long after 2009, Lady Gaga and Beyonce is still notoriously affecting the masses. At Biance, Beyonce with Renaissance Act 2, the country influence sound that came out March 29, 2024. That did phenomenal. And of course, when it comes to Lady Gaga, we already know, especially if you listen to the podcast, how Die What a Smile did as far as it being one of the more impactful tracks in the past three years doing phenomenal numbers. And, you know,
Starting point is 00:03:07 shout out to Bruno Mars for being a part of that. And then of course, You come to realize that Lady Gaga has been putting out hits for quite some time as just dance, poker face, boring this way, shallow, rain on me, die with a smell. I mean, these are just some of the hits that went number one, nothing too crazy. So whenever glazing Lady Gaga, we do have to keep in mind that the four-time Grammy winner as far as song of the year. Oscar winner for Shallow as far as in 2019, two-time Oscar nominated. as far as till it happens to you and hold my hand. Lady Gaga has a lot of things to hands her hat on as far as being a versatile effect of the masses,
Starting point is 00:03:50 especially as a true artiste. So now when it comes to the sample, when it comes to the T's for Telephone Part 2, we already know what we could be leading up to because these two women are also still putting up numbers in the big year of 2025 and 2024 being considered. So now when you look at that, safe to say, if we do get a telephone part two, it's probably going to blow up on the charts. And of course, with Beyonce and Lady Gaga's relationship, always being strong as far as them supporting each other, which basically started off when they initially met at the 2009 Billboard Women and Music event.
Starting point is 00:04:34 And they thought to themselves, we should make a smash hit together. And they did. So after that, you know, throughout their careers, it was definitely supporting each other. Of course, Beyonce sent flowers and an Ivy Park hoodie to Lady Gaga in 2017 amid struggles and tour cancellations, right? So Beyonce's always had Lady Gaga's back. And when it comes to Lady Gaga, she called Beyonce an inspiration post-Deafjam drop.
Starting point is 00:05:03 They never had any public rifts. So a telephone part two would make all the sense in the world as far as them bouncing back and making the track together. And of course, we look at the landscape of 2025 and 2024 as far as Lady Gaga specific, well, currently for Lady Gaga, her track, the Dead Dance is the most popular from her currently, as is the 75th most played track in the world and it's been on the charge for about 10 weeks. And then you come to her album, Mayhem, which is currently the 24th most played album in the world.
Starting point is 00:05:35 And this was this specific album came out September 1st of the world. this year. So she's definitely still on the charts and putting up numbers. And of course she's on tour, which is where we got this teaser from. So now a telephone part two makes even more sense, right? I mean, it's not like either of these artists are basically trying to fiend for clout. They're basically still putting up numbers by themselves. It only makes sense that they join forces and put out telephone part two. So with that being said, that's all I wanted to dive into was just the speculation of telephone part two. Hopefully that comes out soon. and to also put a misrespect on Lady Gaga's name as not only we've been glazing her throughout this whole segment,
