I loved the Whitney film. I think the actress did a great job. If you’ve seen the “Being Bobby Brown” reality show then you’ll see she captured Whitney really well. However, it’s hard to fit a lifetime into 2 hours. I don’t think a 2 hour film would do justice to Madonna. Her career has been too huge. She really needs a Netflix series and it’s sad her team seemed to discourage that. But seeing the Whitney film got me excited for what could come with a Madonna film. 

Usually the answer to "am I the only person who thinks [x]" is: no. But how many times does it need to be said at this point?
If you think the "young" generation is going to actively listen to her all of her songs from her past out of sheer interest without any prompt to do so like Frozen Remix or BTUTTB, then I don't know what to tell you. She isn't going to drill an Oh Father sped up remix on TikTok and hope people start making it go viral. She's reacting to what people are already enjoying and having fun with it, while making a few bucks along the way lol. It's not that deep and really, who cares? How long have people been saying she's ruining her legacy, etc. So over that, she doesn't need saving after 40 years in this career, even if/when she makes misguided choices.
And ew, Dance 2night??
 
EDIT: Sharing a slight edit of the cover since I'm not into the design - it's nothing special, but I kinda like the pic itself without too many distractions

That doesn’t really matter. It’s still important to be able to say it was Number 1 on iTunes in xxx countries. 

I think the problem for many of us is that Madonna has access to the best designers in the world and we expect amazing artwork, even for the smallest things. Many of her past album and single covers are simply iconic. And to be honest even the bad designs from the past are better than what we are getting now. Anyone with a slight design background can see the faults in these recents designs, like excessive use of drop shadows and gradients etc etc. It shows a lack of experience and a lack of artistic expertise. But I think Madonna is using fan art because these releases are for the fans rather than a wider audience. It's quick, cheap and easy for her. I'm sure her next album will be done by one of the big professional designers. 

I don’t hate Aldo. Good for him for getting the job. But that doesn’t mean everyone has to like his work. I personally don’t like it for various reasons. Others love it. The world would be boring if everyone had the same opinion. You don’t have to love everything just because you’re a fan. 

The sped up version is stupid, but I understand why she included it. And she was right to include it. I’m surprised she didn’t include a slowed down version too as isn’t that the most popular on TikTok?
Artwork by Aldo Diaz. I feel so sad that she’s going with the most amateurish designs when there are so many amazing designers out there who do incredible things. I’m losing hope for any decent back catalog releases 😔
