Ugly Hecty Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Quote How Starrah Went From Working Retail to Writing For Madonna Recently Starrah -- who’s published by Pulse Music/People Over Planes -- started working closely with Madonna, who came to her with multiple song ideas that turned into half a dozen tracks on her new album, Madame X. The pair sorted through the fragments, singing different melodies until they hit on the ones that felt right. For a writer who had spent years toiling behind the scenes, it was the ultimate “I made it” moment. But Starrah says that even in the presence of the queen of pop, her fly-on-the-wall approach is the same. “I just listen to who [artists] are as people,” she says. “The most I can do is get inside their minds and see what they’re thinking.” https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/8515687/starrah-billboard-cover-story-2019

Ai Papi Si. Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 Starrah and Madonna worked out just fine. I was worried about a Rebel Heart sitch (the awkwardness of very palpable writer camp vibe in that album DRIVES ME NUTS) cuz lets face it, Starrah is kinda writing camp territory. But they seemed to have hit it off thank god.
DreamTheater Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 I love the tracks they did together. They don't sound like writing camp songs at all, they sound like Madonna classics.
VogueMusic Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 The songs they did are some of my favorites on the album. I think she's the one writer M really connected with out of the new school, in the way Avicii was clearly the singular one last time. Something in those sessions together clicked, and those songs really show it.

LVX Posted June 16, 2019 Posted June 16, 2019 She co-wrote all of my top 3 songs on the album so I’m glad she was a part of it.
