    There is no such thing as THE answer. We are all allowed and should be allowed to have different takes on things :thumbsup: 

    I never said this was a good vocal performance but I also gave you my reasons and concrete examples as to why in the greater scheme of things this will be a blimp. Madonna is allowed to have one bad vocal performance like everyone else does and should be.

    Obviously I would have loved for her to kill it with a 180m television audience but certain media quarters and in nowadays fast food three min shelf life social media world people just love to have even the slightest excuse to come for others, plus all the politically correctness brigade, especially when it comes to someone like Madonna

    One bad vocal performance and it supposedly erases the fact that she's not lazying around even though she could well live off her back catalogue making even more money. No she gives you a different sound every time, does great photoshoots, great videos, tries to shake things up in the live department so on and so forth

    Her YouTube comments for her Madame X songs are predominantly ranging from good to great, and that's not from forum level type of fans like us but from a broader spectrum of the general public

    Bono will occasionally sing off key too and sound coarse and strained but you don't read streams of ink on that for some reason

    Time to move on. And for anybody not liking the inclusion of Future :rotfl:this is her vision, her new song.

    And it's a good song for the genre. Madonna does things her way, from day one. She wouldn't have lasted so long if she hadn't done so. That's one of her trademarks

    This ....amen

    Normally the "mantilla” doesn't cover the face except for more extreme forms of expression during Spanish Easter. But I do agree that Madonna's is related to church widow attire. 

    Yes you are right

    When I was there I felt the same goosepumps I had during the MDNA girlgonewild tour intro lol

    Well, it depends on the style of the tracks. Apparently Madame X is mostly about world music and mid tempos, with just one disco exception. It's possible that the hashtagged #discogod Mirways produced with her some cool tracks wich didn't fit the main project. Also there is still some ambiguity about the Nakhane collab not being released... who knows, sure it's hard to believe, but maybe a mixtape EP in that case could have been the perfect solution

    ...Nakhane could get a significant role in her next movie too ( and soundtrack ) , I think he and N.Bianco are up to something together too....who knows!

    I have to agree with that. And not releasing the Mirwais tracks that are getting all the hype is another big mistake. This is what the fans are waiting for, not the duets with Quavo. 

    But true M fans should know after decades she s not a safe artist and she has allways given first choices to the new collaborations in her new music .

    Unfortunately, I think Bruce Springsteen is going to keep Madonna from the #1 spot that week in the UK and US.  He's got a lot of loyal fans and he's been running an aggressive campaign, especially on the internet.  His last four albums were both #1 in both countries among others, without any hit singles. 

    Yes and he s been  milking this fanbase with greatest hits tours since forever...I respect him but M NEW music is da thing I crave no matter how she ll do on the charts

    Madonna's fanbase is stronger and bigger than Taylor Swift's fanbase. How many will pay 500 pounds to go see Swift? Can Taylor Swift sell out a stadium in Portugal or Columbia? America is not the center of the world. Taylor Swift is a local artist for the most part. This is not to say she does nott do well elsewhere but her power is more localized. Madonna's fanbase just happens to be grown ass folk who do not have the time or dedication to repeatedly do what needs to be done these days to get her to chart. After the few days of Medellin, I eased off. Maybe we don't care enough about the charts or we just do not have the time. For instance Me. I do not go to spotify until I come here and read this thread and think okay go do your bit.

    Since the first week I have been listening to my own copies of IRise and Medellin and Crave. I bought it. Why do I have to go listen to it on some other platform? What did I buy it for? That's the mentality of most Madonna fans I think and fans of a certain age which is why the older artists do not chart as much even though they more often than not are making better music. Taylor Swifts ME charted on the hot 100 right? Medellin did not. I Rise did not. Make that make sense. We can't. It's the time we live in. So we just have to accept it and move on.

    Hope the album has good physical sales. Stream that when it comes out and see what happens.

    That s it ...I appreciate the effort of younger fans and what you ve posted is my way too
