Madonna may be saving the live push for new album ‘Madame X’ for the set’s like titled tour, but that hasn’t halted her promotional hustle.

The diva’s media train pulled into ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’ and saw her spill on her project, meeting Barack Obama, and much more.

During said visit, Pop’s matriarch also made a hilarious “proposal.”

Despite garnering her fair share of controversy over the past 35+ years, Madonna‘s rap sheet of causing commotion may only be outpaced by her Hot 100 hits and humanitarian efforts. The latter takes center stage a-front the music video for her politically charged single, ‘I Rise.’

Having long championed causes related to AIDS research, the defense of the rights of women, children, LGBT+, and more, the Queen of Pop joined TIME magazine to weave a collage of recorded events related to all of the aforementioned for the tune’s accompanying visual.  Featuring “footage of the survivors of the Parkland shooting, supporters of LGBTQ equality, Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman’s powerful testimony about sexual abuse, first responders to natural disasters and other social justice movements,” the Peter Matkiwsky-directed video “tells the story of a global population fighting for rights, recognition and survival.”

Madonna‘s shedding light on ‘Dark Ballet’ – the fifth and final buzz track ahead of the June 14th release of her new studio album, ‘Madame X.’

Preceded by eclectic album cuts ‘Medellin,’ ‘I Rise,’ ‘Crave,’ and ‘Future,’  ‘Dark’ – which will see its accompanying visual unearthed tomorrow (June 7th) – continues the pattern of musical diversity by sounding nothing like its forerunners.  The question at hand, however, is if it will continue its predecessors patterns of failing to make major impacts on the Billboard Hot 100.

In a bid to avoid the latter, the Queen of Pop has already begun previewing the song’s haunting video highlighted by religious iconography, implications of persecution, and more.  Curious to see how Madge is looking to seduce fans next?  The answer awaits inside:

With the first three singles from her June 14th-due album, ‘Madame X,’ failing to make any serious dents on the Hot 100, Queen of Pop Madonna‘s summoned ‘Stir Fry’ star Quavo to help whip up a future hit.

Titled ‘Future,’ the reggae-flavored cut comes as the duo’s second collaboration, following the Cardi B-assisted ‘Champagne Rose‘ (featured on Migos member’s debut solo effort, ‘Quavo Huncho’).

Hear the tune in full below ahead of the two’s rumored duet performance at this weekend’s ‘Eurovision’ contest (as we reported here):

Much like its predecessors ‘Medellin’ and ‘I Rise,’ the Swae Lee-assisted ‘Crave’ – the latest release from Queen of Pop Madonna‘s June 14-due album, ‘Madame X’ – hasn’t exactly received a royal welcome from music lovers.

Released May 10, the tune is currently sitting outside the iTunes Top 100.

In an effort to ensure its fate doesn’t mirror that of the project’s first two singles, Madge has taken to social media to tease the cut’s forthcoming music video.  A simple, yet slick black-and-white affair, the press release that accompanied the song’s unveiling was sure to emphasize the visual is due in full “very soon.”

Ahead of its official premiere, see a preview inside:
