When you’re the undisputed biggest pop star on the planet and want to stay that way, how do you go about ensuring that happens? One way is to put out a massive release practically every other month; another is to make a sex tape. Lady GaGa has stuck to the former so far, but with only eight songs on The Fame Monster, you can’t really put out more than three singles. Common business sense says you also can’t put out your next album yet, so GaGa is going with the logical alternative — remix album (via EW.com).
Early next month, GaGa will put out this remix album, brilliantly titled Lady GaGa — The Remix, in the U.S. The disc is already out internationally, and a huge hit at that — MTV.com reports it has sold 500,000 copies. The U.S. version will have 10 remixes from The Fame and The Fame Monster, and all the hits are given the treatment. According to MTV.com, remixers include Passion Pit and Madonna/Kylie Minogue/New Order collaborator Stuart Price.
Below is the tracklist for the current version, although obviously not all 17 tracks will end up on the U.S. release, which comes out August 3rd — just in time for her headlining performance at Lollapalooza.
