Mat.Guy Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 I have to say it's very different than what I was expecting from reading the reviews! At my first listening I was thinking "this is strange" - which should be the feeling you have at listening a new Madonna song! By the second listening my whole body was already craving for Crave! It's delicious, infectous, vulnerable and sexy! My favorite part is her voice! There are times she sounds exactly like 80's Madonna, I just could not believe! Her voice in this song melts my heart and she just proved yet again why she's the Queen of my life! I give a 10/10 BTW Madonna just realesed her 2 best songs this decade with Medellín and Crave. That's saying a lot and I mean it!

Kim Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 This is the one of the three that's risen from Good to Excellent for me. Get in Madge!

veroelectronica Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) It hit the gold. I proudly give it. Excellent Edited May 10, 2019 by veroelectronica

Nonoka Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Sooo, I see Mother Monster Advocate has risen from its 2014 grave and chose to rate this song. Guess which rating it picked?
NorthernLad Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Not crazy about it. I voted it "okay" because "Meh" wasn't an option. It's not getting a lot of views on youtube either. I remember Medellin took off like crazy...that hasn't happed with these last two songs. Ah well, I'm still hopeful for the rest of the music.
Nick Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 I gave it a good, but It's really between good and excellent. One thing is that I don't like Swae Lee's vocals too much on the track. Just felt he could have elevated the track more if his singing was better and maybe more unique.

His voice is smooth like butter and is voice makes the song. Keep listening lol
dario Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 not into the trap beat that has been used like million of times, but her voice sounds so gorgeus, it reminded me like her classics a lot, it was really well produced, and the featuring sounds great it is not like the Rebel heart collaborations that sounded out of place and rushed
Crux Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 Excellent I really can't get enough of it. I see Mother Monster Advocate voted Horrible. How is that turd still here?

rocknrolla Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 I would give it a 9 out of 10. I LOVE the production, the vocals are excellent, lyrically it is a bit clunky at times -- "my cravings get dangerous"? I think Swae elevates the song, probably more than any other duet. I know a lot of people like Medellin, but it feels like his parts could have been tacked on at a different time, if I didn't know they had actually worked together. I can definitely tell on Crave they spent time in the studio together. I really hope the rest of the album sounds a lot like this, I don't care if there are any dance songs. I see the comparisons to Bedtime Stories, and I am excited for it.
MaddyFanatic Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 Excellent. Easily her most commercial single since 4 Mins.
kubi Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 The singles/buzz tracks have all felt so personal and, maybe not spiritual but definitely in that vein. This isn't just some commercial pop album, it is a work of art. Loving it so far.
dollhouse Posted May 13, 2019 Posted May 13, 2019 It could be on any of her 90's albums (except IB) It shines even among her classics
albertogerard Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 All the straight teenage boys in this house LOVE the track. I normally hate the shit shit they play. They all come in the house when they hear me playing it. I think it's one of her best songs in a long time.

Disintegration Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 The bridge is everything . Lifts the song up a lot where initially I felt that it was a bit too simplistic after the relatively complex Medellín for example. Grown on me a lot and is so catchy.

Hard Caramelo Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Good but far from excellent. It feels as it lacks something. It seems a little bit incomplete. I prefer Medellín.
Kurt420 Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 It blows my mind that people hear a trap/rap song here. Throw a black guy with some braided hair in and...

And the comments about trap music is the same we used to hear about her pop music in the 80s - it's ridiculous.
