40 years ago today July 27 ,1983 @madonna released her debut album..

6 months later she was on American Bandstand where Dick Clark asked her what her hopes are for 1984 and beyond. A very confident Madonna answers: “To rule the world”.. and that she has

Shes definitely ruled my world.. 7 years after she did that interview , I was fortunate while still a teenager to get an invite to the Madonna train thanks to the legendary Freddy DeMann..

32 years later Im still on it..

On some days that steady train can turn into a rocket shooting up to the stars at full blast, you need to hold on tight!!

At other times it can be a rollercoaster with ups and downs, twists and turns, you need to hold on even tighter!!!

No matter the transportation, there is never ever a dull moment on the Madonna journey..

Im grateful to my Lucky Star: Madonna for the ride of the lifetime.

Id also like to congratulate @saramariezam for her wisdom, partnership and her hard work over the years. Again to Freddy without him none of it would have been possible. To the incredible @lizrosenberg44 for overseeing madonna press with armor on for decades!! To Angela Becker who worked with me on my first years of madonna management.

To the team at @warnerrecords for 40 years of care and support!! Especially our beloved seymour stein who signed madonna when michael rosenblatt played him the music. To all the dj’s that played and continue to play madonnas songs. THANK YOU!!! you have good taste . To the radio stations around the world that supported and support. To Madonna TV, I mean MTV for its push back when they were the most impactful way to share music.

To the talented collaborators/songwriters and producers.

For the video directors, choreographers, hair/makeup that bring the music to life visually. To the art directors that made album art and promotion iconic in image. To the performers / show collaborators that brought the music to the people Live. From fashion designers/ stylists that collaborated on the reinvention of Madonnas looks.

And most of all to the beautiful , dedicated and loving Madonna fans.

I cant wait to see many of you again very soon.. much love, guyo
