It’s a masterpiece today and it will remain a masterpiece.

Two completely different songs, moods, styles. Both fantastic. EO is more unique but IDSIF wins by an inch for me

This video is fantastic, and the song should have been lead single form the album! It really stands out from the crowd. Just curious where the video was actually shot, was it really Cape Verde?
No. It was shot in a Portugal.

Absolutely beautiful. Another cinematic video. Simple, beautifully shot, powerful, empowering, joyful. Her artistry is above and beyond on this album and her soul is in it 100%. She just keeps on giving. I can’t wait to see all this come to life on tour. Minds will be blown.

In Dark ballet does she say God is on my side and I'll be fine or I'll be his bride?
I’ll be fine

The way he describes this album, the Intension behind it, the difference compared to other “pop artists” current albums, is exactly what I feel when listening to Madame X. While it’s a Madonna album, it’s also a completely new chapter in her artistic approach to music and her conceptual idea of an album as a body of work, not just a collection of songs. That’s why there aren’t any real singles this time, aside from Medellin. The entire roll out was to present the album and her artistic vision. Not to create a hit. She’s exactly where she should be at this point in her career. A true artist and visionary. And with Mirwais she chose one of the best collaborators to work with.

Stunning

I absolutely love the horns on this track. A very authentic, old school quality in a good reggae track.
And, like the entire album, it sounds amazing on really high quality speakers.

I’m making a playlist, pairing each Madame X track with one of her past songs that matches either sonically or thematically.
While some are obvious choices, others are a bit more challenging, since nice Madame X is so different in large parts.
Suggestions are welcome.
Medellin/La Isla Bonita
Dark Ballet/Paradise (Not for me)
God Control/Future Lovers
Future/Unapologetic Bitch
Batuka/?
Killers who are partying/?
Crave/Secret
Crazy/?
Come Alive/Body Shop
Extreme Occident/Isaac
Faz Gostoso/Bitch I’m Madonna
Bitch I’m Loca/?
I don’t search Infind/Vogue
Looking for Mercy/Drowned World SFL?
I Rise/Like a prayer?
Funana/?
Back that up to the beat/Beat goes on?
Ciao Bella/Goodbye to innocence?

Siegessäule, Berlin’s leading lgbtq magazine, reviewed Madame X. It’s not a major publication of course, but quite popular in Berlin. I was a bit worried, because they were very negativ about the last albums and have basically been rather hostile in the past. So to my surprise, they gave the album a stellar review. Calling it a Masterpiece and a true return to form. The Madonna magic is back. They actually reviewed each track
They basically split her career into three parts. Albums where she brilliantly combined risk and pop mainstream (LAP, ROL, Music, COADF), albums with which she went to far for the mainstream but were loved by the fans (Erotica, American Life), and albums that seemed defensive, trend chasing, trying to make up for lost grounds (BS, HC, MDNA, RH). Madame X won’t move the masses, but like Erotica and American Life, it’s an album that will ensure the love of her fans.

Some fans are really ungrateful. You don't deserve her.
True. I try to avoid getting upset about it, but sometimes I just want to punch people.

Really nice documentary. It ties everything together. KWAP was the first song she recorded. Recording Batuka was a religious experience for her.
Moving to Lisbon was the best thing she could do. She found new inspiration and she found herself again as an artist. Watch it if you can.

I’m just beyond amazed. This video is such a daring, bold and heart-wrenching statement, perfectly executed. In her fourth decade in this business she not only delivers one of her strongest albums but also 4 videos so far that rank among her best. The drive, determination and creativity of this woman is just unbelievable and truly makes her a cultural icon. She’s making headlines around the world and finally for all the right reasons. This era is truly one of the most remarkable ones of her entire career.
-
She truly has zero fucks to give. She will be shredded by certain groups and she knows it. But she doesn’t give a fuck and speaks up for what she believes in. She deserves so much respect and support. This woman is simply amazing!
-
Holy shit. I’m speechless. She went there. All the way. Bravo!
-
I just added Ciao Bella after IDSIF. The rest is perfect.
