thetea ARTPOPster 2,470 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) He did well in that sense so I applaud him for that, but in other aspects he failed. He could've got Chromatica a second week at #1 by releasing another vinyl or some piece of bundled merch, he could've got Rain On Me two weeks at #1 by releasing a bit more merch second week and another CD and better playlisting. I love that he respects Gaga though when she is not feeling well and doesn't want to promote. He doesn't force her to do anything she doesn't wanna do Edited January 29, 2021 by thetea 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetea ARTPOPster 2,470 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Just now, Twitter said: I will admit Bobby did a great job up until after the Super Bowl-Coachella. Yeah. He did a great job. I don't get what happened for Chromatica.I don't think there was much he could do for streaming for Joanne, because someone on this site said that before her contract was renewed it was sales based, not streaming. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsGenuineGuy09 A Popster Is Born 12,592 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 not deserved. Bobè style of managing is all 'fur coat, no knickers' and he needs to start being more frank with his top client. If he kept the way he is at PR and booking gigs, but brought in Scooter to manage her music career - she'd literally be unstoppable 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that leaves Bobby as the unfortunate lesser of two evils. Wish we could find someone who falls in the middle. Yeah, but I think Gaga and Bobby are pretty close. I think she has with Bobby, what she thought she had with Troy. On the flipside, having a friend as a manager doesn't work out when it comes to work matters where you have disagreements. Lets hope next era, Bobby does better, gets those two weeks at #1, and if there is a #1 single, it doesn't leave the top 10 after 4 weeks 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ariana Grande is Scooter's most successful artist right now, and all his scheming and fraudery would be so good for Gaga, especially for playlisting and #1 debuts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyMetalLover ARTPOPster 2,401 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Wait - I just realized he probably organized this Oreo rollout. He deserves all the credit.

Now its time he gives that job back to a professional and may be a co-manager or something. I need most of the friends and yes men outta team. Its lowkey sabotage at this point. I think part of the problem is that her team seems to be all her friends. It's a power imbalance because they can't make her do things without hurting her feelings or vice versa. Not to mention, she's their boss and they get paid because of her 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention, she's their boss and they get paid because of her If it works for them, then more power to them but this is the thing I always think about. I absolutely cannot imagine that type of work environment either as an employee or a boss. Of course I am always coming from the perspective of the employee, but also imagine basically having all your friends on your payroll. It'd be such mindf*ck for me. That said, I don't have a strong opinion on any individual on her team. It seems like Bobby's had a big part in a lot of career-defining moments, so good on him. It's nice to see more behind the scenes members of the team also get recognized. Feel like I need a disclaimer that I didn't come into this thread with the intention of criticizing 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
