She used the acapella singing from the Sticky & Sweet Tour in Buenos Aires. Just pay close attention to it
Please give me a timestamp, I'm going CRAZY with this

Finally, im not really interested in researching this BUT I was surprised that M worked with Anitta to begin with because i had read the Anitta aligns with right wing ideology and is/was a fan of the right wing brazilian Trump aka, Bolsanaro. Maybe, Madonna recently discovered this from an Anitta post and decided to remove her.
That's odd, Anitta has actually always been very vocal and critical of Bolsonaro on Twitter from what I've seen.
There's even an interview from 2019 where she explicitly says that she doesn't support him at all: https://vogue.globo.com/beleza/gente/noticia/2019/02/em-entrevista-internacional-anitta-fala-sobre-o-presidente-eleito-jair-bolsonaro-e-sobre-seu-posicionamento-politico.html -

M sees herself as the only one & the rest are just workers for her even big names, she doesn’t care about anyone except herself that’s why most celebrities are not friends with her. Her attitude is really horrible.

you just described an extremely toxic person that everyone would probably hate, why you stan her? there's a difference between liking the music and listening to her, with being a hard fan. why you are a hard fan of a toxic person?
Both of you are actually kinda right, lol

There’s no way someone would agree to post Demon Semen conspiracies on her behalf
Demon Semen?? What have I missed

Does she control that, though? I think she has someone who's in charge of her social media... so she probably doesn't even know that
Still bad, though -

A Madonna theater residency on or off Broadway in NYC (...) Tell stories. Do jokes. Do a dance number if she feels like it. Have random special guests.
No offense, but this is my worst nightmare

Because current Madonna might be a nightmare to remind some how age destroys things
Yap, I think this sums it up perfectly. I mean, she couldn't have been on top FOREVER. She's been active for nearly 4 decades (!!) with a constant stream of hits. How many artists in the history of music have had that privilege?!
I also think it boils down to projection. Fans are also getting older themselves and the reality of age hits them. To see their once-near-divine-goddess canceling shows because her body is starting to cave in and not being the center of news everywhere anymore is a bit of a shock. But it's normal, it's expected, it's life.
Age is not destroying her, age is reinventing her again. Although I do wish that reinvention didn't include grillz.

Price was the Musical Director of both Drowned World Tour and Re-Invention as well, let's not forget that. He was the one who brought her old songs to the new century, there's no way one could deny it.
His work wasn't live but it did not sound karaoke-ish and he found a way to make Madonna sound amazing on those 3 tour without using lowered vocals from the steams straight from the 80's, that alone saves his sound. Plus, Re-Invention, although not perfect, was very inventive with the new versions and was the seed that bloomed as Confessions on a Dance Floor.
Oh, I didn't know he was on DWT as well. To be honest DWT and RIT are the modern tours I like less
I find them a bit... dull. The musical arrangements don't spark anything for me, either. But this is now more of a matter of personal taste.
Either way, my point was that I don't think Antunes is a devil and Price is a god. I think they both have different approaches and are good in their own ways.

I'm torn up on Kevin Antunes. While I do think his sound is a bit "flat" for some reason, the fact is that thanks to him we got some of the best song reinventions like Vogue and Like a Prayer S&S or Candy Shop MDNA. I think he's a great "mash-upper" which work on some songs, but not on others. Either way, he made justice to Madonna's premise which is reinventing.
While Stuart did a good job on the Confessions Tour, I think it was because it was his work anyway and the songs were very DJ-ish to begin with, because if you dissect the other ones they weren't actually that original:
- Ray of Light as a very generic rock version
- Drowned World/Substitute for Love was a monotone beat over an acoustic guitar
- Music wasn't even him, it's the Disco Inferno instrumental
- Lucky Star was basically the Hung Up beat...
Erotica was his one true gem, but other than that, nothing really stands out as original or "his" reinvention, unlike Kevin who made some real good mash-up reinventions. He also did an amazing job on Madame X, because Human Nature and Frozen were next level. In the end I think they both have their merit and I would love to see them both as musical directors of a tour, to balance things out. Kevin would rework the classics while Stuart would do the current songs.
Oh, and let's not forget Madonna also has a say in this and she pus a lot of input as well. So if a song comes out bad, it's also her fault.- kesiak, MDRA and cosmic_system

I'm sorry but sometimes I feel like I'm living in a different reality than some of her fans.
Everywhere I go, every time I watch something, every time I meet someone, Madonna is there. Just yesterday I counted 5 Madonna references in shows I've watched in the past week alone. My non-fan friends send me things they see of her all the time, like a t-shirt at a store or whatever.
The woman had a #1 album in several countries just 18 months ago, followed by a sold-out tour of very expensive tickets that sold like hot cakes. She was universally appraised after 3 mediocre albums and at the age of 60 (!).
Why do some fans focus so much on the butt and grillz and elevate those things to the same level of her work? That's like 10% of her. Yes, her Instagram is cringy but you guys know she's a boomer, right? lol what did you expect from a 60-year old woman on the internet... and I've seen way worse, to be honest.
I 100% disagree that younger people don't know her music, or at least that's not what I see in my personal experience. Her hit songs from Like a Virgin to Girl Gone Wild are very well known by the few 18-20-year olds I know and they do like her. Online I also get that feedback. She's seen as an icon, the Queen of Pop, the top of the hierarchy. Her status is unchanged by some grillz or whatever she may feel like wearing...
I understand disliking the implants/grillz/cirurgies but to say she looks "cheap, basic, unflattering" when she's dressed in amazing outfits with bomb-ass makeup and hair for the gods just screams of sexism, ageism and even classism to me... but that's just my point of view.

I remember thinking they took too long to show her in the "Ray of Light" video ?
Its still amazing. Really captures the excitement and hope for a new century. Pre- 9/11. The Dan O Rama remix videos are so fun too. She looked sun kissed and gorgeous. The little crystals under her eyes. Tandonna is underrated.
Omg, you said it perfectly. I too love the "innocence" of the Ray of Light video, like "look what's happening technologically! And a new millennium is coming! Life is getting fast and exciting!". Even though I was only 8 at the time I remember feeling that hope and excitement so the video makes me feel all kinds of nostalgia. I can only imagine it's augmented for people who were older.
A shame that 2 albums later we had to have American Life because that innocence was crushed in 2001. :/

Sophie, the influential British producer who molded electronic music into bracingly original avant-garde pop, was killed in an accidental fall Saturday morning (January 30), a representative confirms. SOPHIE died at roughly 4 a.m. in Athens, Greece, where the artist had been living. In a statement, the labels Transgressive and Future Classic wrote: “True to her spirituality she had climbed up to watch the full moon and accidentally slipped and fell. She will always be here with us".
Jesus... I don't even know what to say...

Omg. I really liked her as a producer. I wonder what was the cause of death?

Madonna: Visual Compendium

Saw it on Reddit and loved it! I love how Madonna inspires fans with her imagery to produce amazing design work.
I'd buy one but I'm poor right now... do you trade for a Madonna Monopoly?
