In addition to being greeted with mixed reviews, Madonna‘s newest LP – ‘Madame X’ – has come as the first studio album of her 30+ year career to see all of its singles miss the Hot 100 entirely. That, however, hasn’t stopped the Queen of Pop from pressing forward in its promotion.
Already beating the promo trail in Europe over the last week in its support (as we reported here), Madge is also still cranking out music videos for the set’s content – the latest to come as the accompanying clip for the Mike Dean and Mirwais-produced ‘God Control.’
A clear fan favorite from the album, the disco-tinged tune houses controversial and political lyrics but may be just what she needs to change the project’s fate. Watch its teaser inside and let us know if you agree:

Can’t wait to see her new video.
Desperate
Not my fav album of hers by any means but mixed reviews? It was almost across the board critically acclaimed as her best album in 10+ years and good for being innovative and embracing a world sound not trend chasing. She’s going to p*** off all the Trump people with this video and they’ll scream celebs need to shut up about politics and gun control yet they voted for a D list celebrity for POTUS. At 60 the queen continues to give zero F’s what the haters say and does what she feels is right
Mixed reviews? Metacritic says otherwise. Learn to read & comprehend dahlings
This is one of the more interesting tracks from the album and it will be interesting to see what visual treatment she gives it. But what we’re really waiting on is the TOUR…..
