Madonna isn’t impressed with the new wave of Pop purveyors hoping to follow in her commercial footsteps.
Why?
Her estimation below…
The vocalist told ‘Vogue Italia’ that she’s recording her new album in Lisbon to escape what the U.S. Pop scene has to offer.
Why she loves the city?
It’s a nice antidote to what’s going on in the music business now where everything’s so formulaic, and every song has 20 guest artists on it, and everyone sounds the same.
Fortunately, her decision has seen her meet a number of musicians she believes have the talent to remedy the problem.
I’ve just met lots of really amazing musicians, and I’ve ended up working with a lot of these musicians on my new record.

TOTALLY NOT A LIE
She tells no lie..
The Queen Of This Pop Ish has spoken! ?? Madonna is a low-key genius! I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again! These new artists try to be a “brand” first and foremost! They try to sell t-shirts, homeless looking clothes, stank perfume, cheap liquor and whatnot! I don’t recall MJ, Janet, Madonna or Whitney trying to sell me homeless looking clothes before the start of a new era! These artists try to sell concert tickets before an era that hasn’t even proven itself worthy of any coin of any kind! And the music…LAWD, this try hard, too cool for school, hitless mess! Why does every artist think they are Beyoncé level? lmao ? If ya’ll don’t get ya’ll no name assses out there and promote! They think they can just drop a surprise album with no hits and promotion…you can’t do that when NO ONE KNOWS YOU. And they are almost allergic to hit songs lol…like, they are almost scared of a signature song! Everything is just an average piece of crap! The whole album sounds like ONE LONG DREADFUL SONG. And they can’t write for ish, but yet want to write each and every song on their album like they are Prince! Let’s talk about it lol ???
You’ve said everything I was thinking.
Yo.. this is real in many ways?
At 60 years old, they will NEVER have the legacy and hits she has. People joke her about being older. But she’s the B_itch they all want to be. She is the Icon. Michael Jackson, Janet jackson, and Madonna. The original OG’s. Biggest Selling Female in History and has NEVER even hit a vocal D5. Work Bit_ch.
Her career is the blueprint for all the pop stars.
YES!!!! @China & Caleb….. #TalkThatRealTalk!!!!!!
She gets on my nerves a lot but I’m just search for the lie in this statement
Madonna spit nothing but straight facts with this particular statement.
I don’t really care for her at all…. but she’s right.
You may not CARE for her, I’m ALMOST certain she gives ZERO fuks. But what I do know. ALL YOU Q***** /JEERS FAVES LOVE AND ADORE HER. THEY WISH THEY HAD 10% OF HER CAREER WINS.
Simmer down, hun.
This is the artist who had an almost four decade carrier without drug and alcohol or other criminal activity scandal.
She is totally right.
She is actually really a bad ass b**** with such a strong personality. The majority of those starlets are not able to take the success without being high or drunk. Meanwhile there is Madonna who stood the test of time without having to go to rehab. And that while being one of the most successful stars out there. Even in times she has flopped she was like „f*** it“. One may not be ok with all her stunts, but she is a really hardworking and stable personality with an impact that looks for its match
Shes right but shes not scandal free. All of her scandals involve exploitation of s** & the gay community. And lets not forget her under the table adoptions & her involvement in the breakup of A-Rod’s first marriage.
100% true. She was pissed how her last albums had to be made and has saying to say about it! And is determined to prove she can still deliver a cutting end masterpiece like Confessions, her last truly great album
Absolutely on point. That was her last and best body of work.
She’s telling the truth
Madge is right. Popular is at its lowest ever in history!
I agree
So y’all gone act like Madonna ain’t been riding off for features for at least a decade. Or better yet how she rode Cyndi Lauper and Cher sound into Pop Glory then stayed on the charts by working with everyone else Hit Making Producers to dabble in their sound. She may have fooled a lot of people but she has yet to fool me.
This.
Indeed, most music these days are hard to hear apart, and no one really stands out. Too busy making what they think will sell streams not what is good.
I completely agree with her and I look forward to this new sound that she is going for. I’m happy that she’s going back to being experimental. Also, let’s get into that video that’s posted up above where she sings for the 1st and only time ever “Bad Girl” in SNL. She sounded and looked exceptionally AMAZING!!! I remember watching that live as a kid on TV and being totally blown away. I miss that era.
Although she is right to an extent, she is also guilty of using guest starts in recent years like Nicki Minaj and Timberlake in recent years. She also tried to capitalise on 90s hip-hop and RnB with Bedtime Stories
She may be right, but lets not act like at least half of her career wasn’t powered by guest features & chasing current pop music trends to stay relevant. She only made this statement because that method isn’t working for her anymore (Rebel Heart’s sales).
I don’t listen to her music but I guess she’s right!!
Maybe if she wasn’t giving B**** I’m Madonna or Girls Gone Wild it’ll be different she better take notes from Janet Jackson
Rebel Heart and Unbreakable were both very good albums so no need to take notes.
Take notes from Tranet? What a joke. She hasn’t been relevant to the gp since that Super Bowl fiasco. Where is Tranet’s tours in the top grossing tour of all times? Her cute tour numbers shows lack of interest from gp, but only from her slowly decaying fan base. Madge has already outsold her in albums too? So why would she need to take notes from a lessor?
This is why I don’t like Madonna her RACIST ASS FANS
Ya same ol sounds it’s dragging me down not good for my body ? she better look how Janet Jackson can stay relevant today.
I don’t understand. Y’all are acting like Rebel Heart and Unbreakable didn’t sell the same amount. And both have successful tours.
Unbreakable outsold
Relevant to her small & silly fanbase. Look at the tours:
Tranet:
a. Number Ones: USD26M (LOL)
b. Unbreakable tour: USD15M (and cancelled due to her gold-digging pregnancy)
c. State of the world tour: USD33M
Madge:
a. Sticky & Sweet: USD408M
b. MDNA: USD305M
c. Rebel Heart: USD170M
Tranet’s tours are like mall shows & confirms how small an interest people have on her.
Who’s Tranet?
Say what you want about JANET she comes from a BLACK DYNASTY racist ass Modonna fans…
But didn’t she release some s*** song with two features, M.i.a and nicki minaj.
That was 6 years ago.
Yes she did, but at the time M.I.A. was not at least at my knowledge a huge mainstream singer and Nicki Minaj was ending her Pink Friday phase. Se didn’t took some new hitmaker girls who sounded all the same, but choose two talented young artists with interesting sounds.
Btw in my opinion Gimme All Your Luvin’ is brilliant and love the vid as well.
Well as someone produce a hit everyone runs to them to get a hit.
