    Daft Punk is on board?!? WHAT WHAT WHAT?!?

    My mind is exploding.

    (I know it was forever ago — but remember when they were interviewed after Get Lucky and they asked if Pharrell had talked to them about bringing Madonna into the mix (not for that song, necessarily, but to collaborate on anything) — and the interviewer said they looked at each other mysteriously without giving any audible response...? Makes me wonder if something has been gestating for a long time.)

    They rejected her once. If you look back, they never worked with a woman.

    Two singles being released at the same time for different markets is a terrible strategy nowadays when you can actually check from India which song is the most played in USA or every country in the world thanks to Spotify or Apple Music. Look at Reggaeton, for example. Many Maluma songs in spanish were trending in European countries thanks to social media and streaming platforms. Same with Anitta. That made sense in 1999, not these days.

    in fact, it's a very common strategy these days. See Ed Sheeran, Camila Cabello and those singers. People choose what song they like more.

    When they say "different market" they are not saying that one song will be released in Europe and another one will be released in North America. It's just two different songs, different genre.

     You could be right re the leaks not having a huge impact on sales.   However, the 18-20 million illegal downloads of Rebel Heart which put M in the top 5 most illegally downloaded albums of 2015, does prove that the GP  still has an interest in hearing what she does, even if they're not paying for the luxury of doing so ...:0)

    nobody knows where those numbers came from so who knows...

    REBEL HEART leaked hopefully this album wont ...this could sell more than rebel heart 

    I think you are exaggerating the leaks effect. How many people can go to the deep web, search and download a zip archive with leaked tracks? 5000? You have to be a BIG fan to do that. There is no way that 1 million of people or more are doing that. Sounds like a huge and delusional excuse for an album that didn't resonate with the gp. Let's be realistic.

    how would the album sales benefit from this one-video-a-week strategy exactly?

    not sure that would be the best promo imo

    to focus on a single is a waste of time, energy and money. Releasing several songs or two songs at the same time (like a lot of artist are doing now) keeps the interest in the album. You won't get a high peak with any song but you can make sure that everyone knows that there is an album coming and it gets pre-orders and streams. When rebel heart came, literally nobody knew about it.

    The classic 1 lead single and then 3 months of wait doesn't work anymore. If the single flops, then the album campaign is ruined.

    I think Taylor Swift and Sia did something like that too. They released like 4 or 5 songs before the lp

    Your expectations are really low? 

    Justina is not a model to follow. 

    how can someone expect to this album to sell better than rebel heart or have singles doing good at the charts. It's not realistic. The physical sales are lower, her popularity hasn't got any better and her streaming it's not good either. There's no reason to expect this era to be good seller. I hope i get proved wrong but i don't see it. I read people here saying that it will sell 2 million. how?

    Man Of The Woods sold +700.000 in US. +400.000 are pure sales and it sold 1.100.000 ww in one year. His 3 singles charted and 2 of them were top ten in US and UK. All that in 2018, not in 2015. I wish the new era could have numbers like that in 2019. So.. yeah. it kinda is a model. Sorry if you dislike him and again, i was talking about promotion strategy. Not what you think about him or his music.

    That's an excellent idea

    I just hope they're able to choose the right singles, without any input from the GP..

    Makes sense if the tour starts in September & album comes out in June.

    That seems more likely than a visual album but I’m praying for a visual album or for lots of visual content...and it seems like it’s happening. 

    or she can do what Justin Timberlake did last year. He released one video every week before the album drop and the halftime show. She knows her singles doesn't chart that well so she prefers to promote the full album instead.

    remember that someone said something about two singles at the same time.

    He did:

    1-Filthy

    2-Supplies

    3-Say Something

    4-Man Of The Woods

    5-Album release

    Notice that every song goes to a different market.

    some so called fans are already killing this era, before it even started. just because they have their own timeline and ideas about the look, the ass, the face, collaborations, drag queens, video, album... what the shit people?! don’t you have something else to do? 

    when did it become enough to say “someone said...” for people to start shitting all over the place? how old are they? 12? 

    can you? wow aren’t you a clairvoyant. 

    also, @Herfaceremains, thanks. great post :x

    yes, i can.

    Also, i can see a forum where people can comment what they want.. Don't you?
