'ARTPOP Act II' to be Released This November?
Since the anniversary for "ARTPOP" is fast approaching, many Twitter users theorize that the sequel album might be released on November 2023.
"WHAT IF ARTPOP ACT II IS RELEASED ON ARTPOPS 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY," one wrote, while another one posted, "Wouldn't it be lovely for Gaga to release the unreleased music intended for ARTPOP ACT II for the ten year anniversary of the album this November xxx please I need this xxx."

'ARTPOP Act II' Background
When Lady Gaga released "ARTPOP" in 2013, she teased fans that the album has many songs and some of it could be released in the future under its second act.
In 2021, DJ White Shadow hosted a listening party for the album at the Scarlet Bar in Chicago where he mentioned the possibility of Act II getting released in the future, saying "And if I could ever do anything for any of you, including making a second version of this album..."
In a previous interview with Entertainment Weekly that year, the DJ/music producer revealed that he was able to listen to over 40 songs from the era which are in the "phases of being done."
Most of the tracks "still holds up," but it's not ready for release yet as it needs more polishing.
