It's no secret that there will be Latino influences on the album so to a certain extent people who love tracks like "Spanish Lesson" will be happy.

Don't shoot the messenger... Fabulous!!!

BrendanT1993 Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Hey, If she can give me songs like Impressive Instant and Spanish Lesson or La Isla or another latin sounding song and I’ll be floored.

Don't shoot the messenger... Thanks so much for sharing! Even though it's not very specific- it's making me feel really excited for what's coming and that it's going to be worth the wait. I like this kind of news as it is hopeful and promising without giving away too much.
Crozzauk Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Not to sound negative but cohesiveness was something i was really hoping for, as we've not ahd that since Hard Candy. I thought a lot of the tracks off rebel heart were amazing, but its lack of cohesion (plus a big old leak) killed it for many.
luluthecat Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 .....I’d rather hear the thing first before complaining about cohesiveness.
elijah Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Isn't she working mainly with Mirwais and Billboard? When she works with 2 producers, its usually cohesive.

BrendanT1993 Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 I mean, yeah, It goes without saying we should take these rumours with a grain of salt. But all in all these “rumours” sound very positive. Madonna doesn’t do cohesive very well lately imho, so that’s no shocker. However I DO believe she’s poured her heart into this album, keeping it very secret - case in point it hasn't leaked yet. Could this be the first leak free era since what, Ray of Light or Music?? I don’t know these names ppl are dropping randomly that she’s supposedly working with, and I think that’s a good thing? I’m so eager to see what direction she goes in. Praying for something Latin/Deeper and Deeper/Deep House feels.

Don't shoot the messenger... Thanks for sharing. Much appreaciated. The positive reaction to your post here, as opposed to the negative reaction on Popjustice speaks volumes about how I feel about most of the members on that forum.
intenseguy Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Not cohesive but the tracklisting is not done yet... this is quite a contradiction. But thanks for the info!

Geiger83 Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 I think that Madonna's idea of doing an album that is influenced by Latino music and is at risky at the same is a very clever move. Now I am really excited about it
le smoking Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Thank you @robster!!! I'm so excited!!!!
Nikola Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Sounds promising. Btw we are living in the postmodern time, cohesion is not part of it, fragmentation is, it's just what it is (think theory, fashion, music, movies, art (Bacon anyone?)). She is once again on the forefront.
BrendanT1993 Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 I'm hoping for a You Can Dance part two to be released next Christmas or summer 2020.

The coming year promises to be a #magic one for all of us... So let’s celebrate music with the 2019 calendar, which features cover artworks to all of Madonna’s studio albums!
