Madonna Signs Three Album Deal With Interscope Records

Published: Wednesday 14th Dec 2011 by David

Madonna fans rejoice.

For today, reports regarding the icon’s rumored partnership with Interscope were confirmed.

Yes, she has signed a three album contract with the label, in a bid to kick start the next era of her lengthy career.

Full story below…

According to Billboard Biz, the 50 something has inked a deal which will see her next three albums distributed by the label,which is also home to fellow attention seeker Lady GaGa.

This deal will not affect her standing contract with Live Nation, with whom she signed a $100 million deal  with back in 2007, a year before the release of her ‘Sticky & Sweet’ album and the launch of its supporting tour.

While all the details of this new venture with Interscope are yet to emerge, this news will be sure to silence any who had been under the impression the performer was planning to retire from music to focus on her other endeavors.

For, now that we know the coming years will spawn three brand spanking new LP’s from the ‘Vogue‘ maestra, it will be some time before the charts see the back of a woman who is just as relevant today as she was when she debuted.

    So its tit for tat
    Gaga copies Madonna so Madonna copies back.

    At the end of the day, Gaga is a better singer than this h** will ever be and HAS NEVER had to spread her p**** lips to secure a contract unlike this b****.

    Shes 50 years old dressing like she just turned 21 and a half and she wants to try and compete with the young b******.

    You had your time ho!

    YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS!
    Gaga must be shitting her pants, you tried to come for the Queen now shes infiltrated your ranks lool..

    Poor Stefanie- she really thought she could trust Jimmy and he goes and signs her nemesis!
    Anyway, at least Madonna’s latest album isn’t a flop, maybe she should ask Gaga for Beyonces number and give her some advice on how NOT to release an album.

  3. TakeAbow December 14, 2011

    Excuse me, Interscope is not Gagas label, it existed before her and will go on after her.

    Its not Iovines fault if he realizes the originator is worth more than the imitator, I mean really- he signed Gaga to be his own little Madonna and now he has the real thing.

    Toodles Germanotta!
    Oh and QueenOfTheNavy, lool at the 4closure shade.

  4. Kingphoenix December 14, 2011

    @QueenoftheNavy

    Maybe she can also ask Beyonce how to sing and dance live, and win 16 grammys…

  5. Beehive December 14, 2011

    Look at you cheap Rihanna stans throwing shade at a project worth ten times more than your goat sounding fave could ever be.

    Throwing shade at Beyonce when we all know Jay Z will probably useTalk That Talk’s combined sales to buy his daughter’s very first lacefront.

    Throwing shade at Beyonce when we all know Rihanna’s v***** has seen more industry c*** than a Grammy urinal.

  6. QueenOfTheNavy December 14, 2011

    Beehive, you forgot to say how Jay Z will use Rihanna’s sales from Loud to buy Beyonce the songwriting credits for her next single since we know how much she loves buying the rights to song she didnt write and claiming that she did write them.

  8. DONT TRY IT B**** December 14, 2011

    Im happy for her, she STILL has nothing on Gaga, but they are goin to try to shade both of them and asign them the same producers and stuff. I hope they don’t do that and promote a LEGENDARY duet between them.

  9. bey’knight December 14, 2011

    i thought her live nation deal stated that evry new record will be backed by a diff label or so. the media and public love drama esp between female artists, Gaga has never said anything derogatory about Madonna so i dont know where yall are getting “arch enemy” from. melodramatic much?

  10. pop royalty ( year OF 4 ) December 14, 2011

    as a HUGE madonna fan and a METASTABLE-fan of GAGA ! i do NOT see a big deal.

    Both Women rock !!

    so WHAT .. ?!

    lady gaga is not a competitor to madonna , so sorry , madonna is an icon already , gaga is STILL icon in the making !

    it’s f*****’ 3 years and u gonna make it as if M even care … ?!

    i don’t like when gaga stans act like there was no music or icons before gaga 😡 !

    *playS the FLOPPED single EH,EH (NOTHING ELSE I CAN SAY*

  11. JohnVidal December 14, 2011

    I don´t see why this post has to become a stan war aka a mess. Madonna is the queen of pop, Gaga is like the biggest thing in the last few years… I don´t see the problem. And you sure don´t think Madonna will do better than Gaga from now on right? She probably will keep doing great but it´s impossible for her to be the biggest thing at the moment nowadays. People please just try to make sense

  12. JohnVidal December 14, 2011

    @B.Hill
    Maybe you are forgetting Gaga has achieved more recognition from the industry in 4 years than Madonna in 10-15 years. It´s what happens when you sing 20 times better, always live, play piano, songwrite everything, love the fans, etc
    Fading? Born this way for album of the year at the grammys! That´s how she´s fading
    That said I already stated this is ridiculous, Madonna is queen of pop so no shade at all

  13. pop royalty ( year OF 4 ) December 14, 2011

    🙄

    gimmicks or not ! GAGA is talented ! that is a bonus !

    katy perry is just more organized commercial-wise and wise when it comes to release her singles and vids ” thanks to her team”

    BTW is great ! lyrics and all ” except some songs which i still skip 😡 ”

    and she’s still hot nowadays !

    madonna still unbothered !!

  14. Loic December 14, 2011

    don’t really care if Gaga’s better or not or who copies who… Madge’s got 3 more albums to come at least and that’s the frikking awesome news, give that b**** fight a break please!

  15. BLAH December 14, 2011

    *YAWNS* i laugh at these flopped r****** stans when all they can resort to is rihanna’s first half way successful album “LOUD” lmfao that is just too too funny….. it only sold 5.8mill WW (laughs hard) while that’s her highest selling flopped project lmao all of beyonce’s previous albums sold more than 7mill ww lmfao all were #1 albums smh that’s why i laugh at these flopped stans when it comes down to sales all they can resort to is LOUD hahahaha just too funny…… just embarrassing……. i mean come up with something new rofl oops i forgot she had no other really successful albums =_-( feel bad for you flopped navy rofl all yall have to back yall up is her half album LOUD and her single’s sales that’s just sucks…… sad that she’s been in the game for 7 years and hasn’t broken any records except only (2)<<<pathetic and has no #1 albums<<<pathetic and can only sell singles<<<<pathetic, and lets not forget her beat up loose raggedy vocals which have never been respected by anyone nor talked about lmao she can't even hit her own high notes live like on her audio version's o.O…. when your an artist your album sales matter more than your singles…. anyone can go and buy (1) single meaning they just like that 1 song but say f*** the album that s*** is horrible lmao i only liked 1 song….that proves that your basically a gimmick and your music won't live on in the future lmao i swear i have never heard any of rihanna songs from her previous albums on the radio at all…. all u hear is her new s*** while you have singers like Beyonce, Alicia keys, Ashanti, Monica, hell even keyshia cole, madonna, usher, bep,pink, cristina aguilara ….. ETC who songs from all there albums even there very first one still playing on the radio til this day not just there new s***… those are what you call (Real) artist and there music is what you call (CLASSIC) and that's what r****** will never be…. 6 albums heavy promotion,strong label, hits on the billboard and only 24mill WW (YOU DO THE MATH) sounds like a FLOP to me.

  16. BLAH December 14, 2011

    oh and btw =-) good luck madanna im sure you will do well anyway being that you can do more than just stand on stage and perform sexual activities with fans and lip sync because you actually have a voice and you have what they call “stage presence” u can actually dance and wow the crowd and have had a very successful career 🙂 albums wise and singles wise and more…. im not a fan but i like a few of your songs *thumbs up*

  17. Onyx December 14, 2011

    Call Madonna a flop with a $100 million deal with Live Nation is stupid, Madonna’s new album is not gonna be a big deal, because she’s not new, teenages loves young people like Lady Gaga or katy Perry, however the album is not gonna flop coz Madonna knows how to deal with low sales, she doesn’t care anymore about that + she doesn’t release more than 2 or 3 singles anymore with only 2 videos make for the singles, she is more interesting in tours, the last time madge release 4 singles was for Confessions on a Dance Floor a massive success across the globe, as for Gaga i like her, i think she is the 2 coming after Madonna, fans created war between them, Gaga has always express her love for Madge, saying : “You know, there is really no one that is a more adoring and loving Madonna fan than me. I am the hugest fan personally and professionally,”
    The good news is that I got an e-mail from her people and her sending me their love and complete support on behalf of the single,”If the queen says, ‘It shall be,’ then it shall be,” she said.
    These 2 women are amazing, one is already a Legend, the other is building what will be her Legacy, the question is: when people will get tired of comparing Madonna with each new singer, how many singers Madonna has to beat to make it clear. There a lots space for a lots singers but theres only one B****, The Queen of Pop, the Mother of all B******.

    God bless the Kings of Pop Michael Jackson and Madonna for ever and ever, AMEN.

  18. MISHKA December 14, 2011

    Lady Gaga ain’t no threat to Madonna. Let’s meet again in 25 years.

  19. B. Hill December 14, 2011

    @JohnVidal

    In Madonna’s first four years, she sold 25+ million albums in the US alone and scored 6 #1 singles. In Gaga’s first four years, she sold 6 million in the US and score 2 #1 singles. Madonna’s first three albums all sold A LOT more than every one of Gaga’s albums have…and on top of that, they all outsold the one before it. BTW hasn’t (and won’t) outsell The Fame. In other words, Gaga “peaked” a lot quicker than Madonna did.

    LOL

    Tell me again how Gaga has accomplished more in 4 years than it took Madonna 10-15 years. You are clueless and have absolutely no idea what the hell you’re talking about, kid.

    And so what if BTW is nominated for album of the year, 9 times out of 10 she’s gonna lose it to Adele…the same Adele who stole her thunder this year. BTW was supposed to dominate 2011, but it didn’t did it? Nope. Adele came along and handed Gaga her ass, stole her “it” girl status and reduced her to being just another female pop star. You have NOTHING to brag about as far as Gaga goes.

  20. MRDIVABITCH December 14, 2011

    Maybe there will be a collab with Gaga?
    I hope not…Madonna would collab with just about anybody in order to sell
    I prefer Gaga to be more selective with whom she collaborates with.

  21. Yellow Gorillah December 14, 2011

    oOooOoOo

    Thing’s JUST got Interesting!!

    I’m sorry but why do Little monster’s think that JUST because Lady Gaga can sing a LITTLE bit better then Madonna and Play a piano. B**** What .. You can’t come for the ORIGINAL and say the FAKE is better =/….

    They are Both Talented Women but…Madonna will always remain superior just to the fact the she was GIVEN the name Queen of POP The GAY’S Choose to follow her. And LOOOL At it took Madonna longer to achieve what Gaga has done in 3 years LOOOOOOOOL Do people even know what Madonna DONE!

    Madonna is the MOTHER she PAVED the way for ALL the POP girls of Today you can’t throw shade at her when your own favs knows the deal and copies her in every video…

    ALL 3 Of ALBUMS CAN FLOP and no s*** will be given because her crown can’t be touched. Unless Gaga goes to sell 100million in this day and age it won’t happen unless she sales all her next albums for 99c.

    Lady Gaga has not even achieved Britney’s sales let alone madonna. The little monster’s should keep it cute because BTW Sold less the TF if her 3rd albums sales less then BTW Then it’s a rap

  22. Lax December 14, 2011

    Madonna is worth 515Million & its all $$$$$$$ who cares who has the
    looks or talent because its all about sales, sales, sales bytches. I am

    TAPPING THAT ASS REALLY GOOD FOR THEM HERE LATELY NOW
    HASN’T SHE BEE HIVE,,,,LMAO @ THE BEE HIVE RUNNING FROM
    POST TO POST LIKE A CHICKEN WITH HIS HEAD CUT OFF,,,STILL LMAO.

  23. Heh December 14, 2011

    Far as I’m concerned, Interscope is the label of 2Pac, No Doubt/Gwen Stefani and Eminem. F*** Lady Gaga. Couldn’t care less about her weird ass self.

  24. Crave12 December 14, 2011

    @LAX are u seriously addressing beyonce stans on a post about madonna HAHA u rhitards are seriously beginning to lose it .. Anyway back to the ACTUAL SUBJECT of the post .. I think this is good for madonna since she’s performing at the superbowl her career may get that much needed boost after hard candy kinda of stalled .. But hey her tours are always top selling so she will always have that if the albums don’t do too well

  25. SHESDUMB December 14, 2011

    @QUEENRIHANNANAVY

    MADONNA IS NO THREAT TO GAGA.
    LMAO!!! @ U FOR EVEN THINKING THAT.

  26. oh baby(b****** WILL deal) December 14, 2011

    you know what,this is what i wanna see Beyonce doing when she’s 50 something! i want her to be still dancing in her leotards and with a fit body like madges coz i know she can do it,but i dunno,i have a feeling my girl’s gonna retire after another kid or 2(she always said she wanted a short career…anyway on topic,get that money madge with your fine 50something year old-self ,no hate from these ends! all the up-coming diva’s and wanna-be’s should look up to this woman’s career! she’s not even a fav of mine excerpt just a few classics and recent songs,but SHE is a living LEGEND! respect!

  27. Keith December 14, 2011

    I don’t think this will be a good move for Madonna (and it has nothing to do with GaGa but more to do with the business) but I’ve learned to never doubt her…Explains the Nicki Minaj collabo, though.

  28. Alex December 14, 2011

    Are u joking, comeback after having 25 years in the buzz, and still having one of the best selling tour of all time with Sticky and Sweet Tour. She’s sold albums with over 10 millions copies. And that with copies that you buy in stores not on downloads for 0.99 cents. See “Gaga, Rihanna, etc. I’m not saying that other artist are bad, just that noo one, fan or not can say that deny Madonna the inpact that she has and still has! Yes she was bigger in the 80’s and 90’s but still she is an Icon and rightfully so!

  32. GAGASTANN December 14, 2011

    Apparently my comment didn’t go through…..

    Madonna “copied” from Marilyn Monroe
    Gaga “copied” from Madonna.

    That explains the issues I have with some of the Madonna stans on here…

    The Madonna stans who b**** and whine about Gaga “stealing” need to sit the Hell down sometimes…..

    Madonna herself wasn’t original either,Madonna just went “underground” commercial like Gaga is doing now,and Madonna has gone through her fair share of lawsuits.

    Y’all say Gaga stans are underaged and don’t recognize periods like the 1980s Blah Blah BLAH but the way some of you Madonna stans do all this PUERILE,RUDIMENTARY BITCHING even going down to the f****** outfits (even if they don’t look exactly alike) makes NO sense for you “adults” to call anybody childish!

    I mean,I congratulate the b**** on having a 30 year legacy but damn!

    If you prefer Madonna’s music over Gaga’s,that’s one thing but to call someone a “copycat” or “wannabe” for emulating their fave (like some of the crazy ass stans do) is just stupid as Hell!

    Let them live in peace now!

    People on this website on f*** up in the head

  34. JohnVidal December 14, 2011

    I swear some people can´t read!!!!!!!!!
    I said Madonna is the Queen Of Pop! Isn´t that enough? For damm sure I know what she achieved.
    @B.HILL
    You can´t read honey. I said Gaga has achieved in 4 years what Madonna did in 10-15 years when it comes to recognition from the industry, critics and felow musicians. Accept that Gaga is a better musician at least at the start of their careers. Madonna started to be respected with Lke a prayer, and those were not her first 4 years, and to be honest,until Ray of Light (1998) there was not a proper recognition. Also you are talking as if Madonna sold more than anybody else at the time and it wasn´t the case, so relax, Gaga has at least equaled that (compared to her competition today). Also gaga has 3 #1 singles not 2. Just get you facts straight. hell i´m not even a Gaga stan. I just like her a lot like I like all the talented people. And I like lots of Madonna´s material. RELAX
    I´ll tell you this: Whitney Houston smashed with every album like Madonna never could in the 80´s (not to mention the recognition)

  35. Ciara Stan 21 December 14, 2011

    ummm….her last album was called Hardcandy not Sticky & Sweet. That was the name of her tour for the album.

  36. Onyx December 14, 2011

    it will be some time before the charts see the back of a woman who is just as relevant today as she was when she debuted.

    Sam is right, that’s is all bout, she’s still relevant today as she was 25 years ago.
    As for Madonna copied from Marilyn Monroe, Madge has done a tribute to her in her video “Material Girl” a nickname some people still use to referred to Madonna, she copied from her once again in “The Blonde Ambition Tour”, but Madonna is a singer, Marilyn was an actress, Gaga copied from Madges some of her looks, Music and same shock values, yes! Gaga is very talented but Madonna is very talented too, she has nothing to prove, Madonna is my favorite female singer but Marilyn Monroe was the Most Beautiful Woman in the World, and she is remembered for her BEAUTY, Madonna would be remembered for other things but certanly not for her physical appearance, the same for Gaga. Anyway i love both, i make fun of Madge too, i sometimes call her The Mother of all b****** because is true she was a b**** and still is, what cant i do, the same for Gaga i like to call her Printer Gaga, cuz she copied a lot, you know just to laugh a little bit. Imagine if these two make a duet, OMG! the whole world would feel the earth quakes.

  37. MadonnaLover December 14, 2011

    @John…

    Oh shut up.The industry has changed. Madonna has earned grammys, been inducted into hall of fames…..that’s recognition right there. She’s just fine. Stop it and shut the f*** up.

  38. RDK December 14, 2011

    i know a certain flock don’t like the sound of this..this is what a true ICON does,let material speaks for it,s self,in stead of attacking a young blood to be back in the spot light..a matter a fact madge is madge she was never irrelevant she is a house whole name.

  39. dreamlover December 14, 2011

    @John..
    Madonna had to do everything by herself. She didn’t have anyone to copy like Gaga did, so your point is invalid.
    Madonna>>Gaga
    Original>>Copy

  42. JohnVidal December 15, 2011

    And people keep on not knowing how to read
    @Madonnalover
    I said she didn´t have that recognition until she was 10-15 years in the business, not that she has not achieved it. Learn to read. Madonna is Queen of Pop and she deserves it. Gaga is getting recognition by the industry from these very first years in her career though
    @Dreamlover
    Gaga had to do it by herself as much as Madonna, starting from zero, same with Mariah. I don´t know what you are talking about

    It´s clear Gaga copies lots of Madonna´s career moves, but so did Madonna with other people. The important thing is what they do with it. They both do/did great. No need to bash anyone here. That´s what my point was about. Keep the bashing for untalented b****** like Rihanna or Britney, no big ones like Madonna or Gaga. Hope it was all clear now
