I love the solo version and I don't wanna start ANY RKelly drama but I thought it best that she just kinda leave it alone; so she doesn't get dragged back into anything. I don't like how she releases for the fans (by demand) but he co wrote it, so he will still make coins from it. I wish she would have released the solo with a statement that all of his royalties from the song would go to (charityof some kind). I've always had such strong opinions on that man. But this is really nice to have. Wait, he co-wrote the solo version? I thought gaga wrote it all and then he hopped on and wrote his verse (but only his verse) Below are the credits for the solo version, and Robert Kelly is not listed. The new "solo version" is the exact same as the Christina Aguilera version without her vocals. My guess is that this solo version already existed, then R Kelly hopped on for the album, and then came the Aguilera remix using the solo version. Now Gaga should just put this in the album on streaming platforms, tbh, in place of where the version with him used to be.

www.billboard.com/charts/pop-songs .. It fell one position on billboard pop songs..How that happened when it reached #10 on pop a few days ago? I know that Billboard counts the numbers a little different but still I found it weird..anyway it can climb to top 10 next week ..

Maybe if Gaga would actually promote Chromatica, this would be a bigger hit than it already is. This is probably her last chance at a smash irl and she's SILENT.

Yeah it's been solid, but Gaga hasn't promoted Chromatica on social media since release date, over a month ago. It's time to do something, like literally ANYTHING. I've been very frustrated with her lately.

Gaga isn't the only artist that hasn't promoted. Success is possible without promotion if people genuinely like your music.

Gaga has been doing nothing BUT promote for the last how many consecutive years? The video and their names alone seem to be enough to propel ROM. Let her just be Malibu Gaga for now and when the time comes she can give us a video and some light promo for the next single as it will need it more than this.

NOT people saying she's lazy considering what she has done in last five years in music, beauty and movie industry.
This year ALONE she has released an album, arranged a charity concert, done several high profile interviews, gave platform to BLM movement and and filmed two music videos.

And we are still in the middle of a pandemic, how much promo can one do on Social Media, besides requesting you stream her album?

She was also reportedly preparing for Chromatica Ball until June as it was planned to kick off in 3 weeks from now.

What other artists doing well on the charts are actively promoting at the moment?
And since when is Spotify playlisting not promotion? Gaga currently has the most playlist reach of any female artist aside from Ariana. That alone should keep the album and song afloat. That is more effective than any live performance she could do in 2020.

There are no promo opportunities until the VMAβs. Itβs really hard to do a live TV performance these days. The next step should be to launch the next single and have a music video for it ready to go. βRain On Meβ did well and i donβt see it falling, but rather lingering around for a few more weeks.

There are ways for musicians to promote during the pandemic, we've seen it from countless musicians so far. The problem right now isn't the pandemic, it's that it's summer. Promo is always difficult in the summer, pandemic or not, simply because televised promo opportunities are drastically low with all the shows on hiatus. There are also always fewer people on social media during the summer as well.
That doesn't mean she can't do anything, though. There are still some opportunities for promotion, but IMO it's probably best to save those for single number three. This isn't struggling. Single number three probably will.

Yeah I would definitely just let this coast. More promo isn't really going to help, unless you mean playlisting or something. I would save all promo opportunities for whatever the third single is that I'm assuming will be released in August-September.

I don't know what happen but I've been having this on repeat again, what a jam! This will still naturally grow, it's too good to be overlooked

Idk what y'all are expecting but if Gaga started trying to be funny on tiktok it would just get her backlash. What could she have done differently, perform at the BET Awards? She has a contest with Adobe and ads running on IG. in a perfect world, we would have gotten a live performance by now, but she didn't even do "Stupid Love" before everything went to shit so I didn't expect her to do a Zoom conference call performance for ROM.

She's also known for bigger productions with her performances. I'm sure she could do a piano version of some of the songs from the album but let's be real, that's not what the album is about at this point.

The only promo that I've seen is GaGa going to get take-out with no pants on.

This is Gaga's most successful streaming album and biggest radio hit in years, yet also her least physically present. This shows physical promo doesn't mean much anymore.

Spin gain still dropping, which I hate - but I'm surprised it's still top 10 today, 'cause that means Lewis' gain today also sucked.

Ok but I can't be the only one that still gets so much joy out of watching the ROM video, right?

I don't think callouts could affect much into this song's performance tbh. I mean, it has already debuted at #1 on the Hot100, streaming numbers have been incredible for a pop song, it's still holding up well on iTunes, people (outside their stanbase) seem to like it. I just don't see radio instantly kill it, not with all the other factors considered and Halsey isn't involved with this song, so it's all good.
