I’m loving this station. Went from Sorry, Holiday, Get Together, and now Bye Bye Baby

Not sure if this was mentioned but I’m getting Music/American Life video vibes. Like it’s the rebirth of the shelved American Life video as a scene shows a shooting in a night club.
#QueenOfControversy

It would have been if she didn’t have to share the spotlight with those loser clowns ..
Which I found rather odd they didn’t have a solo interview spot for her since she’s had many in the past on Norton.

And Michelle calls Beyoncé “queen” so ...
Not trying to get into stupid stan stuff, but it’s pretty clear there’s not any love there. Not being expressed as it is for others, anyway, so... Oh well.
Well it seems they like safe/plain people. No shade but I would invite M to the White House over Beyoncé any day. It’s a clear choice.

I don’t know if anyone has said this but this song is stuck in my head! I just love the raspyness of M’s vocals on this one. She just lets it all out! Reminds me of Rihanna’s Anti Album - Love On The Brain / Higher type record. And that’s a good thing.

Loves seeing this interview. M respects people who read between the lines concerning her projects. It’s not just the surface, but what the message is.

I bet she will perform it a Pride, and the drag queens from the video will be there too
That would be awesome

OMG....PERFECTION!!! I have not listened to the rest of the album yet... I am stuck on this song. THIS MUST BE A SINGLE... sooo haunting. I hope it has a video.
It neeeeeeds a video so bad. A Steven Klein Video. Or even a Jean Baptise Mondino one.

I was anticipating the worst after almost every review singled this song out as a weak moment on the album, but it's actually one of my favourites! I don't hear a 'white saviour', I hear empathy and the idea that discrimination ultimately weakens us all, no matter our identity.
And my gosh, the music! This is the snippet from the Madame X teaser that caught my ear the most, and I love the full song.
That’s the limited thinking these “reviewers” have. Some of them don’t have a musicians ear. They rate lyrics like it was some book review. What they fail to do is connect the music with the words and how the melody carries the somber yet hopeful tone of this song. It’s romantic, eerie, somber, hopeful and elegant at the same time. No one can make a song like M. This is why she will always be ahead of the game creating new genres with the help of the genius that is Mirwais.

Such a gorgeous track. I’m haunted by it at first listen
truly an artist M is.

Like I said before, this album might seem a COADF to some, but the impact is going to be the same as ROL or Music, because it's that unique "Madonna ahead of the time" sound.
And not just ahead, but an elegant mix of great latin/portuguese/brazilian music + her pop touch. And inteligence. It's an inteligent album, a mature album that'll make pop starlets scream and moan for not being bold enough (nor creative enough) to do the same.
You hit the nail on the head. None of those POP TARTS can’t even muster up a raw album like M has done countless of times. M is special cause she is an artist first and foremost and not some product of a label. I gave in and heard half the record and “KILLERS” “BATUKA” and “GOD CONTROL” have me such in awe. Not since COADF have we’ve been blessed with such rawness.

OMG who is this?

Waiting for Thursday to listen to the album as I don’t condone leaks but glad to hear the album is receiving massive praise.
Makes the anticipation more worth it.

that is Emanuele's style- the video he won for- the SHAHMARAN tells a story of the man- you don't see the singer SEVDALIZA mid into the video.
Love that M is working with indie artists like SEVDALIZA’s video director. Glad she didn’t go the Hannah Lux route that everyone seems to be doing.
-
Pretty certain going off by all the interviews and social media output that MX will be a visual album. My thoughts were confirmed when M said she has been going through “back2back video shoots” with no sleep in the NYT article.
-
Found the interviewer to be a bit condescending and the question about “how is your body doing?” to be a bit ridiculous and glad M clapped back at her with “you’re my doctor.”
-
The more I listen to this song it reminds me of “Best Night.” With a better melody.

Meet American Life
Agreed! And Mike Dean is the new Mirwais/Price this era. She called him back to do Madame X. Shows she is loyal to him and loved what he did on RH.

Sounds very Bedtime Stories meets Rebel Heart and that’s not a bad thing. Love it!

Truly awesome to see M at work. A true testament to her devotion to detail.
