Power and feminininity which are often not associated with eachother, yet should be. If she really wasnt giving two fucks, I would have loved this as an album cover but I bet her record company wouldnt allow it. An homage to Like A Prayer but in a more controversial way. It!
yououghttavogue Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 If this is to be her most political album yet, I really hope there's a hopeful, uniting anthem on it. Not just criticisms about the world around us. A song like Music would be perfect on this album. "Music makes the people come together"- that's as political a song as any.

It would be lost on so many people, but the fact it's apparently the back cover means the message still reaches folk.

yououghttavogue Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 Just now, stevo208 said: I Rise is that song. It should also be good too. Forgot to add that

dylanciccone_ Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 So then the theater video is indeed God Control, in the Vogue interview the lyrics are "We need god control, this is your wake up call." So it fits? Batuka "Get that old man and put him in jail."
alcermag Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 From my pov "Dark Ballet" could be the 3rd single because the realease date of the song is on June 7, after a buzz single "future" (right?), and then on june 14th the day of the realease of the album, she drops DB video, could be a great mkt strategy, does anyone think the same? ICYMI: she thought about presenting dark ballet on eurovision according to the israeli press, so the possibilities of being 3rd single are on the table

I know there's rumours about future (well, strong rumours) but I really want something magical.

Lolasmommy Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 What if there’s 3 singles aimed at 3 different markets: * Medellin for ‘Spanish/Latin’ speaking world * Crave for North America/Canada * Future for Europe
JohnnyUtah Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 I just listened to Easy Ride and I remembered the Extreme Occident teasers. The two songs seem related in some way, both by the structure (or guessed structure in the case of Extreme Occident), first a slower part with acoustic guitar in Easy Ride and with piano in Extreme Occident; then a more mid-tempo chorus; and so for that chorus with in some way similar lyrics ("I go round and round just like a circle" and "Life is a circle"). I hope Extreme Occident is as good as Easy Ride because I need a song like that in Madame X.

Mr Ciccone Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 This may have already been discussed here, but looking back through her Instagram I’ve just noticed a Madame X / Martha Graham reference as far back as December 2018!
CalinB Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 I am sooo looking forward to see where Emmanuel Adjei work comes in...

Aries Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 I hope she finally gets another (long overdue) AOTY nomination if not the actual Grammy itself!
headonfire Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Guys, completely random thing... If you see the sponsored Madame X album post on Facebook with the links to buy it (it appears in mine every now and then, and I'm UK based), please write a positive post or share your excitement about the album. As these are sponsored posts, there's lots of non-Madonna fans and downright haters commenting. There's a lot of old gays specially - mostly Mariah and Kylie fans - posting really ageist stuff about M! If we post positive stuff and like the positive comments, that will help with building up the hype for the album in the comments section.

Shane Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 How far in advance of an album do the first professional reviews start to appear?
metalissimo Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) do you all think that Dark Ballet, I Rise and Future being released before Madame X drops, will hurt the album sales ? I think they are too many songs released before June 14 They should've released Medellin and Crave only before the album release. Edited May 13, 2019 by metalissimo
