Her reputation as the greatest female entertainer of all time is the one thing that no one could touch about her, if she ruins it she'll have no one but herself to blame.
Agree.

I disagree. It’s a completely different world now. She’s be criticized for gypsy appropriation now for that performance sadly.
It seemed to start with the Prince tribute. I can understand not liking a performance...but since BET had a commercial directly attacking bought/created to run immediately following her performance, I knew the tide was never going to be in her favor again. And it’s been the same outage eve since.
I also thought the Univision performance was immaculately staged and compelling ...even if your argument is the vocals.
No one is bashed harder, in my opinion.
Yeah well part of being an icon is being entertaining and getting a crowd whipped up and thrilled
picking 2 songs that EVEN HER HARDCORE FANS agree are among the more mediocre cuts from a very brilliant album is stupid
it doesn’t even have to be God Control. Why not at least Medellín and Crave?
Seriously I just can’t justify the logic sometimes

Looks like this isn’t going to end well for him lol

“I am so disappointed in Madonna’s creative decisions. I should be the artistic director. Then she would be so popular.”
MADONNA doesn’t care. She’s doing her.
In the official announcement, they even used the word BRIEF I think because it has always been four songs and she’s not cutting it short or shortchanging anyone. You know that’s the default outrage...”why not a full 2 hour concert
”
She’ll get bashed no matter what she does so why bother pandering. The fans bash hardest with the unfulfilled expectations.
also, Future is a bop
Oh god lmao here we go

Jesus Christ just give the gheys God Control, I Don't Search I Find, Vogue and another fun classic like Holiday or something.People will love it and will then rush to stream, buy your new album and tickets to your shows.
That would require thinking logically.

@Mensch is the source and he’s been right about virtually everything
this is the set list folks. I was gonna watch it live, now I’ll just go to my friends house and watch Big Little Lies that night instead and catch it on YouTube later. Mess.

Read the room, for once, Madonna.
I mean Jesus, I just want to fucking shake her sometimes. Is she that belligerent and out of touch?
It’s really fucking annoying. Especially now that we’ve heard the album and know what she’s capable of.

What ridiculous choices for what should be a layup performance from her. Ugh

How does anyone find the time to hate on Paula fucking Abdul?

Is he really?
Uh oh. Someone's got. a guilty conscience.

Its going to end up with a similar score to Rebel Heart I think. Thank Pitchfork and Uncut for that. Not kidding either.

That bit made me say WTF out loud......like hell M’s trying to recreate some long forgotten hit by Mariah
You just have to laugh at this point.

It gets even more sad. Internet Stan warriors reviewing pop albums for prestigious publications. He's literally gotten banned from Madonna forums. Not a good look.

I really hope it’s done with good taste, with subtility, because sometimes it’s something missing in Madonna’s work. I trust her, because otherwise.
I think this is what I was getting at.
It should be smart, the way Childish Gambino's video was.

How much will that piece of shit review bring her score down?
A lot.

The fact that he mentions The Rain Tapes. Ugh... He doesn't deserve 2 know the Rain Tapes. That tragic gay though
he's not even a real journalist... It's a fucking blog 
my mom has a blog
Yep. If that doesn't underscore what I meant when I said he should not be reviewing Madonna, then I don't know what does.
I get it, everyone has a right to their opinion. But I feel like there needs to be a least some level of non-bias with reviewers. Why would anyone want a Gaga Stan or a Mariah Stan to write reviews in prestigious publications? You're not getting a real review. The same applies in reverse.

i don't know where you got that he loves madonna. he doesn't even like her. he likes some of her 80s dance stuff. but he even gave that a back-handed compliment in this review.
I'll tell you how I know.
In 2008 I was 22 years old and after he stumbled upon me online (via means we won't get into!) he thought I was cute. So he hit me up. We chatted. At the time, Madonna was doing Sticky & Sweet and I talked about how I wanted to go to the show. That's when he showed his Stan chops.
His knowledge of Madonna is as intricate and as obsessive as yours or mine. He knows every album, project, moment, quote, whatever. He of course loves Erotica, Bedtime Stories. He told me! He thought she was kinda losing her cool at the time though, trashing Hard Candy and basically saying that she was getting desperate and old.
My theory? He stopped liking her once she decided to lean into her age, whether it was wearing outfits that showcased her olympian body, singing with young acts like Timberlake, dating young men like Jesus. Madonna stopped playing the game of settling for middle-aged sunsetting, and it wasn't for him. He resents her boldness and her willingness to be hated. And look, Madonna is zany and her references are weird and she's not exactly anyone's idea of PC. I get that the persona isn't for everyone. But what exactly is so horrible about this album other than the fact that she didn't give him remixes of her debut album or another Stuart Price affair? He can't seem to decide himself. He doesn't know what to make of her and it frustrates him so he just decides she sucks so her music sucks. Fallen fans are like that.
Look at Mariah. She's settled into being just as much a niche act as Madonna, but her lack of ambition is pathetic in its brazenness. Women like Mariah Carey lie down on sofas and mime pre-recorded vocals, then get lifted by 15 men in sailor outfits, her idea of a show. That's his entertainment. That's why he hates Madonna now. But trust me, he oves Madonna, the concept, the symbol, the idea. He still Stans for it. She's just not doing it his way.
I've read a lot of him over the years.

yup. rich is a mariah stan. he doesn't even like "vogue" all that much. and he trashed confessions on his blog back in the day. OF COURSE that's who reviewed the album for pitchfork. it never even had a fucking chance.
I actually think Rich loves Madonna but he's one of those guys who only likes to view her through one lens - a fan who is kinda living in the past in other words. The fact that likes Mariah Carey is kinda cringe and weird since she makes music that pretty much the entire universe knows is pretty bad, but serves a purpose in showcasing Mariah's admittedly great voice (but again, if you wanna talk about someone who needs to hang it up... look no further than her. Her voice is gone and that's all she really had to sell her really generic music). But it's irrelevant. He loves Madonna and he is a fan, but he probably has some sort of beef with her, and FOR THAT REASON, he does not need to be reviewing Madonna albums. It's wholly inappropriate and goes to what @bardo just said. Madonna never had a chance. All parties came into this with an agenda.
Madonna @ NYC pride - CONFIRMED !

Part of why Eurovision sucked is because future translates horribly live. Auto tune or not. It’s just an unmelodic mid tempo song that isn’t anywhere near being the top of any fan’s list.
She’s doing it again and it’ll have the same reception in the room. Period. I defended her at Eurovision too. It was a bad situation but it seemed like just a spastic set of poor choices that she’d learn from. Well clearly she hasn’t.
