Madonna may have 30 years of success under her belt, but that hasn’t quelled her hustle factor.

The Pop queen is hard at work on the promotion for her new album ‘Rebel Heart,’ which narrowly missed out on the US top spot upon its release last month.

‘Ghosttown’ has been serviced as the set’s latest single (following ‘Living For Love’) and, in a bid to whip up excitement, the Material Girl has unveiled its official artwork.

What’s more, she confirmed this morning that the haunting cut’s accompanying video will be unwrapped next week.

As reported, the visual is set to feature ‘Empire’ star Terrance Howard. Jonas Akerlund is the confirmed director.

Take a listen to ‘Ghosttown’ below and let us know if you’re excited!
