There's been a lot of buzz about Lady Gaga's Born This Way, with Gaga herself opening up about the upcoming LP at a recent concert stop. And while there are still some details up in the air, like what it will sound like and when it will drop, one of the team's main men shared a few more details about the full-length follow-up to Gaga's smash debut, The Fame.

 

"We're just starting to play music for the label," Gaga's manager and Coalition Media Group CEO Troy Carter said during an interview at the recent Billboard Touring Conference and Awards. "We're very excited about it. We're starting to play a little for people and getting a feel for it, and she's done an incredible job, a really incredible job."

 

Carter also talked about what the new album will mean for the business of Gaga, admitting he has no set strategy for it. "Well, you know what, it's not where I go from a business standpoint, it's more about where she goes creatively because, truth be told, we built the business around her creative infrastructure and that business that was built is unique to Lady Gaga," he explained, not willing to reveal a release date. "We haven't announced a date ... nope ... it's coming soon."

 

RedOne, who has worked with Gaga on smashes like "Bad Romance" and on the current album, believes that Born This Way will really step up the singer's already stepped-up game. "I think it's more of her freedom album. It's like freedom, this album ... it's her album!" he explained to MTV News.

 

"To be honest with you, I think that this album that she's making is too precious to talk about. When it comes out you'll hear and you'll make your choice. I think you're gonna love it. But I think it's too precious for me to talk about it. It's crazy."

@PerezHilton - @iLeaks Please don't do that!

 

iLeaks - please do that :kink:

I actually hope they don't leak it. Believe me, I really want to hear the song, but I feel it would be quite unfair to GaGa.

Just out of interest, if it did leak, would you listen to it?

 

I really, really want to hear it, but i don't know if i'd be able to press the 'play' button. As you said it would be really unfair to Gaga if it did leak, plus the songs meant to be really personal isn't it? So id feel really mean and not feel like a real fan if i listened... :(

I'm not sure, probably not. Like you said, it's meant to be a very personal song, and GaGa has been working so hard on the album, and I'd like to be one of the, most likely, few people not to listen to it if it did leak.

GaGa's manager praises new album

WENNLady GaGa's manager has praised her "incredible" new album.

 

Troy Carter insisted that the record, which GaGa announced earlier this year was called Born This Way, will be worth the wait for fans.

 

"We're just starting to play music for the label," Music Rooms quotes him as saying.

 

"We're very excited about it. We're starting to play a little for people and getting a feel for it, and she's done an incredible job, a really incredible job."

 

Carter also explained that they have yet to decide on how to market the album, which he said has always been a collaborative effort with GaGa.

 

He admitted: "Well, you know what, it's not where I go from a business standpoint, it's more about where she goes creatively because, truth be told, we built the business around her creative infrastructure and that business that was built is unique to Lady Gaga."

 

Born This Way is slated for release in early 2011.

 

By the time this album actually comes out, all the hype will have died for me. And Little creaturesmonsters sometimes put me off Gaga as a whole. Constantly whoring her out. Even when she done that rally for Don't ask, Don't tell and she said that she was there as Stefani and not Lady Gaga you still have some idiots putitng their hands in the air with the claw and its like, leave that stuff at the concerts. And the way GagaDaily whores her out to be the best thing ever to happen to the Universe sometimes gets a bit sickening.

 

Exactly.

 

If I was in a room with Britney Spears and she played me a clip of her taking a $h!t I would think it would be epic as well. Because I would be focusing on HER and not the music. Don't trust stans for an honest opinion.

Just out of interest, if it did leak, would you listen to it?

 

I really, really want to hear it, but i don't know if i'd be able to press the 'play' button. As you said it would be really unfair to Gaga if it did leak, plus the songs meant to be really personal isn't it? So id feel really mean and not feel like a real fan if i listened... :(

 

I probably wouldn't listen if it did get leaked - I am however pretty jealous of the guy I heard about on Capital who got a listen legitimately :(

 

What would it be like hearing it but not being able to discuss the album with other people who'd heard it though?

 

 

Whenever the first single premieres, i hope they don't do a Bad Romance release and put it straight on iTunes. :drama:

 

Id like the single to premiere, then the video 2 or so weeks later, then leave a couple of weeks for people to hear it and for it to gain heavy Radio/TV support, THEN release it. :P

Didn't do 'Bad Romance' any harm at all, it still had two weeks at #1 in the UK. I like it that way, like they do it in America. Should lessen the amount of illegal downloads, as people don't need to wait weeks before they can buy it.

Yes, you are right, but it only went to #1 after she performed on the X Factor. Maybe if she didn't perform it would have been a different story?

 

And I agree about the illegal downloads thing, but i don't really like the instant iTunes release tbh... :mellow:

 

Also back to #4 on the Popjustice almighty....the site owner must have heard some news recently

:o 20 New Songs on 'Born This Way'?

 

 

 

 

I'm sure it will be album of the year, if not decade. If it's anywhere near as good as TF, it will be! 20 songs :o Can't wait :w00t:

I heard a rumour that she'd said at a concert about it having 20 songs. At least a YouTube video confirms it now :D I was expecting at least 16, the same amount as on the original 'The Fame', as she does have loads of material. Puts other artists to shame - some only have half that amount -_- And even if she has five singles, that's still only a quarter of the album :o

First single in February

So will we hear it in January, so it's given time to build airplay. Or will it do a 'Bad Romance' and pretty much be released as soon as it's sent to radio?

:w00t: :w00t: :w00t:

 

As i've previously said, i'd rather it not be released straight away. ^_^

 

CANT WAIT! :D

i think Born This Way will come out on March 28 to coincide with her birthday
