It's actually pretty disappointing there doesn't seem to be a new single coming.

I know she's been super busy but I wish they'd of shot 2/3 music videos or even 2 music video's and a visualiser to drip feed us before the tour and during.

She could of released another single end of May and then a further single in Late August and then a final closing single during the tour?

It's the type of album that could quite easily keep having incredible moments whilst keeping it's streaming stable.

It's a bit of a missed opportunity but either way I hope we get another single or two!

I do think a new single will be pushed and released this month, I have strong faith in that. I’m not convinced a new music video will be released in conjunction with it though.

A “deluxe” re-release is also very highly likely in Fall ‘25 around Halloween time with ‘Dead Dance’ being registered and what not, although we know how quick Gaga is to drop a project completely (Hi ARTPOP ACT II and the original concept for LG5). That being said, mother has always rebelled against the idea of “deluxe editions” as one of her pet hates so would we see perhaps a ‘The Fame Monster’ 2.0? Who knows!

I was just coming here to ask "are we getting another single", so good to see others are asking the same.

Whereas Abracadabra is the best thing she's done in years and years, it's time for a new video please.

This just showcases how bad UK charts are being compiled right now: Chromatica did way better in the UK than US and now Mayhem is underperforming in the UK comparing to US which is wild.

They are compiled pretty much identically in both the US and the UK its just clearly more popular in the US , but considering she is American I don't see it as that suprising

Maybe if she did something about it instead of letting the era die on its arse...

ahem

I still can't get over those quotes in your sig 🤣

This is on Rolling Stone's Best Albums of 2025 so far list (seems that everyone made it cough Selena & Benny Blanco cough but still):

In the lead-up to Lady Gaga’s latest album, Mayhem, there was a lot of talk about Gaga returning to her roots. For Little Monsters, it’s been too long. Mayhem is the type of fan service that doesn’t dilute the artist herself. Gaga feels like her most authentic self from start to finish on this album: There’s no characters, concepts, or aesthetic impulses overshadowing the songs. Instead, she’s made one of her most sonically challenging and uniform albums yet: a mix of Nine Inch Nails, David Bowie, Prince and her Fame Monster-era self, rolled into the year’s strongest pop release yet. —Brittany Spanos

Calling it "the year’s strongest pop release yet” - we won!

I think they're hilarious.

But, you know, watch what you say on Buzzjack, eh?

The UK is arguably Gaga’s second biggest market (or third if you factor in Brazil, although I still think Gaga is bigger here in the UK than Brazil). It’s so strange to see she’s paid the UK industry promotional dust since…forever. She used to be OBSESSED with being in the UK up until the end of Born This Way/start of ARTPOP.

Come to the United Kingdom mother!!!

Vulture included Lady Gaga’s “Perfect Celebrity” on their list of the best songs of the year so far.

“After more than a decade and a half of ‘doin’ it for the fame,’ Lady Gaga understands how the game works. That’s why, on ‘Perfect Celebrity,’ she wears the hate she’s endured like a badge of honor, knowing it’s a sign she’s doing something right. The track takes after some of her forebearers, specifically Hole’s Courtney Love and the harsh, grungy guitars from Live Through This. But while Love sang about faking it so real she was “beyond fake,” Gaga is only screaming her raw feelings.”

Mayhem will probably reach 200k in the UK by the end of the year which is not bad by any means for an international artist who is not in their breakthrough era, but still it will be disappointing if it cannot outsell/outstream Chromatica after all the acclaim and hype. But I'm sure with the tour etc. Mayhem has plenty of life left.

#59 (-3) in the UK mids

Near enough where it was on Monday last week! But a -3 drop at this stage with a lot of new entries this week (a busier week than last week right plus tour boosts from Sam Fender and Beyoncé! I think again it could climb come Friday and then whatever’s announced on Friday could boost it come next week! I just hope it stays ahead of The Fame for as long as possible 😆
