Madonna herself stated Alek ambushed her in New York with Moira. She never would have met with her before a show like that.
I don't understand why Madonna allowed that part of Moira to be included in the documentary if she really felt uncomfortable at that moment...

Give it a decade or so and streams will be the only thing that matters.
Madonna's legacy remains unbothered.

She's so far from being the best selling recording artists of all time. If anything, she's one of the most streamed female artists of all time.

She may have seen the success of the Breakfast Club doc. And Bohemian Rhapsody may be shit, like @The Same Partsargues, but it's still an Oscar-winning movie that everybody went to see.
Now she is supposed to direct at least 3 movies (Greta Wells, Blond Ambition, Taking Flight). These projects are not reach their final stages, it seems.
She could do like Cher, who supervised her own musical theatre bio, The Cher Show, without writing or directing or starring in it.
Even uf she contradicts hersekf many times, I don't see her doing a Vegas residency in the future. I find it more possible that she writes her own autobiography, while watching football games and playing with the twins and trying new creams formulas..
What if that addiction to wigs she has lately is a sign?

An autobiography would be better, she even said that she wants to write it. We'll never know the whole truth, but we have her brother's version, it would be interesting to know hers.

There are some minor issues with the mixing of vocals on some tracks, also the lack of consistency with track volume is a bit annoying, and the fact that some demos are better than the final versions makes "Rebel Heart" far from having a perfect production, but in general, it isn't that bad at all.

Wait! It's not specified from which album is "Forbidden Love". BS or COADF.

Start training your vocal cords 'cause you'll still read the same shit from the same people.
There was always bias against her and there always will be even if she invents a vaccine that ends all the disesases of the world. Some people really feel intimidated and/or feel envy with a woman like her.
The important thing is that she is still in the industry, it's her way to laugh at those who tried (or still trying) to destroy her.

The Like a Prayer album was a warning shot... it was Madonna saying ... "Paul and John... I am coming for your ass". "Elvis... you too". A new sheriff in town.
It was a real turning point for Madonna. The progression from "True Blue" to "Like A Prayer" is amazing. LAP is not only her best one, it's her most important album too, made her the serious artist and the living legend she is nowadays.

I disagree. Madonna never did an album like HC and it was a breath of fresh air after the COADF album, in which she came back to her disco roots. HC is innovative and experimental and proves Madonna ability to choose current producers at the top of their game and and still be able to push them further to achieve something totally unique and pioneering like the HC album.
I don't see anything unique and pioneering in HC tbh... Maybe GI2M because it sounds like Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" which was released in 2013, but most of the rest songs are like Timbaland previously produced songs...

Both albums are very cohesive and got great lyrics but overall HC is more enjoyable to listen to, thanks to his catchy hooks and great beats.
LAP opens with the title track, which is just that legendary and timeless and it closes with Act of Contrition, which recalls the title track and all the power of that song. Lap song simply outshines the entire album, with no offence to Express Yourself and Till Death Do Us Part that are still timeless bops. Other songs like Cherish, Dear Jessie and Keep It Together feel very boring in comparison and their beat sounds dated.
Love Song feels more like a wasted opportunity than an underrated gem. At least my expectations from two music legends are much higher!
The real strength of LAP relies on the beautiful sad lyrics of Promise to try, Spanish Eyes and Oh Father. Great ballads in which she served vocally, although her strongest vocal performance is definitely during the Evita-Rol peak.On the other hand, the lyrics on HC are not that sad, which can be a good thing if you don't wanna be in a sad mood. Songs like Miles Away, She's Not Me, Devil Wouldn't Recognize You and Voices all got very interesting lyrics that show a charismatic attitude and sense of humor.
The beat of 4 minutes might sound dated cuz Timbaland already show off with Nelly Furtado, but that song still grabs its own spotlight in the album and gives a different flavor from the Pharell production. Give It To Me it's arguably the best dance track on the album and perfect to lose control on the dancefloor.Overall HC feels like a candy store, with many different candies but all of them very tasty and great for different occasions; while LAP got mainly a sad mood and more songs to skip.
Let's compare the albums:
1. Like a Prayer VS Candy Shop2. Express Yourself VS 4 Minutes3. Love Song VS Give It 2 Me4. Till Death Do Us Part VS Heartbeat5. Promise to Try VS Miles Away6. Cherish VS She's Not Me7. Dear Jessie VS Incredible8. Oh Father VS Beat Goes On9. Keep It Together VS Dance 2night10. Spanish Eyes VS Spanish Lesson11. Act of Contrition VS Devil Wouldn't Recognize You12 Supernatural VS VoicesLap: 5/12vsHC: 7/12winner: HC
It's true that HC is more joyful, but doesn't have anything new that we haven't heard before... I like "Miles Away", "She's Not Me", "Beat Goes On", "Devil Wouldn't Recognize You" and "Voices" but, in general, I find the album very insubstantial, could have been made by anyone. I think that every producer involved on it didn't put enough effort to bring us an excellent album.

I've just remembered how FLAWLESS this mash up is!

And it goes without saying that Beyoncé and Kanye West accepted to do their cameo just because that Tidal thing... The video could have been better without that messy attempt to imitate Taylor's "Bad Blood"...
