Glindathegood Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 There was a cash for Questions feature with Nile Rodgers in the British music magazine Q. Someone wrote in and asked would he work with Madonna again and if so, what kind of record would he want to make with her. His answer was he would, but it was up to her. He said it would be different from Like A Virgin and be a work of "non-fiction". He said he would like to do something that summed up everything she has done because her career would be amazing and it would be autobiographical. I guess he hasn't heard Rebel Heart because isn't that what Rebel Heart is basically? It sums up a lot of her previous styles and is very self referencing to her past. So that didn't really excite me with the idea of Nile working with her. It's as though he doesn't really follow her work now. I'm not sure what direction her next album should be but I think I'd like something different ,not just summing up her previous records. I'd like maybe a record more in one style, which she hasn't explored so far. This may sound crazy but since her son likes classic rock like Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd. What about exploring that? It would be really different for her and might get people's attention! I love Rebel Heart but I feel a lot of the public was like oh another pop album from Madonna.

Jazzy Jan Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Nile adores Madonna. He was praising her and just answering the question asked of what kind of record he would like to make with her. I am sure he has listened to Rebel Heart. He probably just wants to do his own version with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Barthes Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I want her next album to be like her Howard Stern interview, to put in songs her formative years especially how she felt growing up in Michigan, it would be Like a Prayer put pushed further and focusing on feeling alienated then and in the end her whole life, like the track rebel heart and of course the Graffiti heart theme pushed further too. She has great stories to tell about her chilhood and teen years and Midwest and middle class america. She should team up with Sufjan Stevens.

Glindathegood Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 You should just post the article instead of your review of it! I would, but I didn't buy the magazine! I just looked through it in a store. It's a UK magazine and it's quite expensive in the U.S. It really isn't worth buying for just one paragraph on Madonna. And the article isn't on their website. Maybe someone from the Uk has the magazine and they can post it. I just thought it would be interesting to people and I would share what I read. Sorry I don't meet your standards for posting.

ryan Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 From a quick Google search, I managed to find what he said in the artcle Friday, 10 April 2015 Nile Rodgers: Madonna is out of this worldNile Rodgers can't remember much of his jam session with Jimi Hendrix as he was high on drugs. Nile Rodgers thinks Madonna is extraordinary. The pair worked together on Madonna's 1984 Like a Virgin album, with Nile producing the worldwide number one album. He's eager to get back in the studio with the Queen of Pop, but says he'd have to reflect her new sound. "I'd love to work with Madonna again. It would be nothing like [what] we did the first time around, it would be much more non-fiction [how Nile describes his sound]. It would be like what I did with David Bowie on Let's Dance," Nile told British magazine Q. "I think at this point in her life she needs to do a record that's reflective of her entire universe. When you think about her career it's monumental! To me, that woman is extraordinary and that's the record I want to make." As well as having hits with his band Chic, the 62-year-old regularly collaborates with fellow musicians. From vintage Madonna and Bowie, to Daft Punk's Get Lucky, Nile has worked with the very best in music. He even jammed with Jimi Hendrix in his younger years, but can't remember a lot as he was tripping on acid at the time. "Not much!" he laughed when asked what he could recall of the session. "I do remember him going at the end of the jam, 'Er, did anyone record that, man?' Of course no one had because we [early band New World Rising] were just there to jam. No one knew Hendrix was going to come in. I was just a teenager, but we were not intimidated one f**king iota - we could play our asses off! "You have to put it in context. We saw Jimi a lot. Great guitarists were commonplace because we lived in the part of [New York's] Greenwich Village where everybody congregated." http://www.tv3.ie/entertainment_article.php?locID=1.803.874&article=163883 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had seen online with a link of course I would just have posted that. I don't understand why people are so hostile and then I get attacked by the likes of Mr. Barbara Streisand for reacting.

Glindathegood Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 So is there some rule that you can't start a topic about something interesting you read without a scan or a link? If that's the rule, then people show know. This is not a term paper that needs footnotes. I thought this was just a conversation among friends, but I can see now not everyone here is my friend.

Glindathegood Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 I've never once said I was disappointed with Rebel Heart's commercial performance. I once said I thought the critical reviews could have been better, but I also said it got good reviews. I didn't have any hidden agenda. It just struck me as odd he basically described the exact record she made. It was just my off the cuff spur of the moment thought. And I never had in my mind any kind of agenda to get back at Mr. Pud Whacker. It isn't all about you. The reaction to my post which I thought was interesting and to which I gave my honest immediate thoughts really shocks me. As I said in the future, I guess I have to think more carefully about what I post and do my research to find a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
