Lady GaGa‘s status as one of Pop’s hardest workers is no dream sequence. It’s reality.

The ‘Bad Romance’ belter has only just come off the road from ‘The ARTPOP Ball’ world tour, yet is still promoting Grammy winning Jazz effort ‘Cheek To Cheek’ with Tony Bennett and recording the follow-up too 2013’s ‘ARTPOP’.

As reported, the latter has seen her return to the studio with longtime parter in rhyme RedOne.

News that Mother Monster had re-teamed with the creator of ‘Romance’, ‘Just Dance’ and many of her other hits, delighted fans in earnest – given their lengthy “break” from one another and the  climate of expectation awaiting the singer’s next project.

Unlike previous LP’s, GaGa has been notable in her (relative) silence about the creation of this, her fifth, set.

RedOne, however, has – in a new interview – shared a morsel of info about their reunion and their process of recording.

Grammys 2015 may have seen a dip in ratings despite an all-star line up(down to 25 million this year compared to last year’s 28 million), but – as per usual – the star’s who got to perform at the ceremony saw respectable sales boosts of their respective projects.

From Ed Sheeran to Rihanna and Sam Smith, those 25 million seem to have been quite impressed with the performances that lined the 57th annual showing, as evidenced by their collective 87% sales gains. This, just in time to accompany news that Grammy-nominated rapstress Nicki Minaj‘s latest release, ‘The Pinkprint,’ has passed the “Gold” mark for sales in excess of 500,000 in just two months.
