Is this why Gaga's networth is higher than Katy's?

Recommended Posts

So basically/TLDR:

 

Katy has to sell over 3 times what Gaga has to sell to make the same amount of money for their respective songs. Considering Gaga is a stronger touring act, it's probably no wonder why the networth difference is pretty substantial even though Katy is as if--even if not more--successful in terms of singles

 

 

Roar

Katy Legally Has 20% of the writing royalties.

Katy Legally has 0% of production royalties.

 

Applause

 

Writer(s)
Producer
  • Lady Gaga
  • DJ White Shadow[3]

Gaga has 50% of writing royalties.

Gaga has 50% of the production royalties.

 

 

So math:

 

Now, according to http://www.gearslutz.com/board/rap-hip-hop-engineering-production/150564-producer-royalties.html, producing accounts for 3% of royalties.

 

Writing accounts for 10% http://members.nashvillesongwriters.com/photos

The rest surprisingly goes to everyone else, which is why people like Jimmy Iovine pimp your faves.

 

 

But for Gaga: ((.10*.50)+(.50*.03))*100 = 6.5% of sales revenue for "Applause"

 

But for Katy: ((.10*.20)+(0*.03))*100 = 2% of sales revenue for "Roar"

 

= Gaga has 3.25 times the revenue.

Well it can't be much different considering how much roar is selling, regardless I'm too drunk for this shit

Currently, Katy has about a 2.5/1 lead on Gaga, being generous.

 

3.25-2.5 = .75 + 1 = 1.75

 

Gaga is still making 1.75 times what Katy is making as of current stats :clap3: gaga9

 

 

And no excuses, I'm high as a kite after teaching all...fucking...day lol. Trolling now heh. Was reading about production and royalties percentages came up.

so to make up for the under performance of applause compared to roar, we have to use math and go into who produces and writes more?

No, why the diverging?

 

People work to get money and recognition, correct?

 

Gaga does not like to be seen as 'the same' as everyone else, correct?

 

Gaga has the best critical acclaim from people she would even care about the opinions of, correct?

 

She is getting recognition and money. At the end of the day, whatever frustrations she has about not being #1 will be comforted with the fact that she is getting the ultimate applau$e. I'm sure Gaga would rather have her double 50% royalties than sing something someone left on the table for her.

 

 

The GP remembers RICH stars, not chart positions gaga9 :clap3: gaga9 :clap3: gaga9 :clap3:
