Honestly if she made an album of throwback inspired dance tracks. She could enjoy success again. Look at how Confessions was her last successful album. People just love campy 80s dance-pop Madonna and her 80s material arguably aged the best. Her debut is actually insanely well-produced. Madge is so pretentious and wants to make another Ray of Light but she needs to let that go.

Courtney is talented as a musician and Hole is a great band. But I wouldn't knock Madonna too much. I think Madge's debut album was a strong example of her talent, she wrote most of it and had a good ear for producers. It was a mix of synth, funk, dance, R&B and even some punk. It's her most simple work which is why it aged well.

The worst part about Madonna or even having to be around her is that she has absolutely no sense of humor. The fact that she has to pay for friendships and love should make anyone not want to be like her or turn into her. She's completely miserable and lost. No matter how rich she is or becomes it's never enough. Deep down she knows she's a fraud and everyone knows it (or at least those in the industry she respects) and she can't deal with that. She has a big chip on her shoulder. This is why she treats everyone around her like crap.

It’s not Madonna’s eccentricities, R65, that we are eye-rolling. I too am esoteric, artsy, and eccentric my own self. I’m sure many if not most of us on DL are quirky AF.

It’s the compulsive broadcasting of it all that’s so hard to stomach. The desperate NEED to be seen and validated. She’s terrified of being truly alone and unseen. She doesn’t know how to generate inner well-being. Like Rump, she externalities her locus of power, and is therefore at the mercy, at all times, of the Gaze of the Other to confirm that she exists. She outsources the task of generating worth for herself. And especially since that first day several years ago when she set up her Instagram account, it has become a big endless ask on the rest of us to provide her the constant daily confirmation and validation she requires.

Stevie Nicks isn’t asking us to watch her perform witchy Wiccan rituals. She doesn’t need our gaze to make her feel real, and valid. That’s the difference.

by Anonymousreply 76November 19, 2020 9:27 PM

Well, Madonna hasn't been influential since the 90s. Being visionary and artistic doesn't mean you'll make a good product. Madonna has ideas but still needs help to execute them because of how elaborate they are and of course having an editor is desperately needed. Madonna was never on the level of Prince or Kate Bush or George Michael who were brilliant artists who were self-sufficient. Kylie and Celine are intelligent, have a big audience and didn't alienate them like Madonna continues to do.

Someone mentioned when Madonna was last trend-setting, and honestly, I've just been thinking about it and it really was that long ago - 2000s Music, where for a little while cowboy hats became an accessory. And musicians would say how much they enjoyed her blend of the electronic and the acoustic on that album and were trying to replicate it.

Confessions is a great album, but I don't remember leotards and seventies hairstyles coming back in. And certainly no one was donning a beret and camos during American Life. And after Confessions Madonna was very clearly chasing trends rather than trying to make them.

by Anonymousreply 78November 19, 2020 10:12 PM

The Confessions of the Dance Floor era was her last big era. People loved fun and unpretentious dance-pop Madonna. "Artiste" Madonna is annoying because she just comes off as desperate for validation. Being fun and carefree is a lot more defiant in my opinion than trying to be seen as high art. Her 80s output was the best because she seemed more into just making feelgood dance music with a feminist and sex-positive message. She was still very music and dance-oriented.

My favourite Ciara memory is her going on Popworld in the UK and saying she wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who had helped her get to where she is, and she wanted to thank god and tell people to believe in themselves and they too could be like her and all that very typical American celebrity type way of speaking, and the camera keeps cutting to the hosts Simon and Miquita side-eyeing each other, and then Miquita covering her mouth to stop herself from bursting out laughing, while Simon sarcastically pretended to be interested.

Madonna seemed to be really pressed by Sinead O'Connor.

And then she had the audacity to criticize her and mock her appearance with her own appearance on SNL.

She was probably pissed because Sinead was both controversial but hugely talented, unlike her.

R114 Madonna and Michael Jackson were both obsessed with fame and very competitive and narcissistic. Madge because she wanted to be famous since she was young and worked her ass off to get to where she was and of course was always threatened by newcomers. Mike because he was trained since he was a toddler to be an entertainer and being famous and adored was all that he knew and couldn't have that taken away either. Both surrounded themselves with excellent songwriters and producers. Mike had the Motown background and learned a lot about making music and performing from the greats. Madonna studied dance and hanged out in NY music/arts scene for years.

Prince though was a completely different animal. He was just more interested in creating music first and foremost, was difficult to work with and constantly in legal battles with his label. He is notoriously introverted and would come and do interviews once in a while. He continued to make experimental and complex music with idiosyncratic lyrics that was not easily digestible. Also his reluctance to embrace the Internet hurt his popularity in the 21st century as did all the lawsuits he filed for copyright.

Who cares if Sinead is broke and weird? She has struggled with mental illness throughout her life. She never used her sexuality to get attention although she was quite beautiful at the peak of her popularity. There will never be another Madonna. I respect Madonna's staying power and contribution to making women more visible and powerful in pop music. Her early music is appealing and danceable. However, there is not a vocalization of hers that can hold a candle to Sinead's cover of "Nothing Compares 2 U." It's simply exquisite.

Sinead was in the middle of a well-received club venue tour in the US before COVID hit and, all things considered, she still sounds damn good.

For being such a self-described feminist, Madonna was only concerned with her own visibility and power in pop music. She repeatedly insulted Sinead and other female musicians in interviews (as she does today) and while she now likes to quote James Baldwin about artists "disturbing the peace" and endorsing BLM on instagram, Sinead spoke out against institutionalized racism and sexism long before it was popular without regard to the financial consequences.

I remember watching Sinead on SNL. I had purchased her most recent album at the time - Am I Not Your Girl? - and in the liner notes, there was a long essay about child abuse and the church. So, when she took out that pic of the Pope and ripped it up, I knew exactly the reason.

What she did was brave. She risked her entire career.

Speaking out on sexual abuse is not only brave, it was what needed to be said.

Now many people finally agree with her.

Sinead was speaking out for sexual abuse victims. Hardly stupid. She had the guts to throw back the hypocrisy in the face of Catholics. Everyone was in a state about what she did but not what she was saying. People were outraged that she ripped up the Pope's picture, a symbol of the church, yada yada yada.

Where was the outrage about children being abused in the church?

To put Prince below Madonna in ANY category whatsoever is laughable and ridiculous. To say he didn't have an impact on pop culture is a form of mental illness. Prince made the color purple HAPPEN for crying out loud. "Purple Rain" dominated the planet when that movie and album came out. It still reigns as one of the all-time greatest artistic "moments" for a pop rock artist. Prince's look from that era imprinted itself on the collective consciousness where it will reside for all time. The only thing that comes remotely close to that for madonna is the wedding dress with BOY TOY belt. But on Halloween, I bet in any given years there's five Prince costumes for every Madonna costume.

Prince was so out of this world creatively that it put both Madonna and Michael Jackson to shame. And they were both jealous as hell of him. They both felt competitive towards Prince while Prince was distracted and absorbed in his creative bubble cranking out hits and concepts over and over. He, too, was apt to change his look and style every few years, and many of those looks beyond Purple Rain era are iconic to this day, such as the Symbol. All three of the aforementioned artists had drops in sales and impact in the 21 century because the internet and an increase in bullshit music and marketing.

There will never be another Madonna, MJ or Prince. But of the three, Prince was THE most authentic artist of the trio, and he for sure had MASSIVE appeal, sales, and cultural impact. And the least amount of scandals. And of the three, Madge comes in third place.

Elvis could sing. Michael could sing and dance. The Beatles wrote amazing songs and pushed artfulness into music. Madonna had great songs with strong female empowerment messages and worked the camera like no other.

Elvis did benefit from black music but unlike Led Zeppelin who also did he didn't contribute anything new to music.

Prince in my opinion is better than The Beatles and Elvis. So is Chuck Berry, James Brown and Pink Floyd for that matter.

Also Michael being a pedo doesn't take away from his artistry. Elvis groomed a 13 year old girl named Priscilla and Jerry Lee Lewis married his cousin who was a child. Chuck Berry was a voyueristic pervert. James Brown, Miles Davis and Rick James were all violent.

by Anonymousreply 141November 20, 2020 5:51 PM

I honestly think Prince is more talented than Michael Jackson or Elvis. Since the Beatles didn't dance or innovate with fashion you could say Prince was more multi-talented than The Beatles, too. Especially since he could play all the instruments that it took four Beatles to play. And he was killer, KILLER lead guitarist. Prince may have been the singularly most gifted musician and performer of the modern era.

The only sketchy things about Prince too was dating and being controlling of much younger girls like Mayte and Mani but at least he went from adult women and despite his controlling tendencies he was never abusive or forced them to do anything. He was at worst very emotionally negligent

R144 and the earlier posters also notice that Madonna's interiors are shockingly pedestrian these days: Her brother Christopher was her interior designer and decorator for years. It seems like she doesn't put as much effort into her interiors as she did when he was doing them for her. She could hire anyone, ANYONE to do her interiors, and I'm very shocked that she doesn't hire Kelly Wearstler or someone of that caliber. Lenny Kravitz. But it really seems like she doesn't care anymore.

Prince pioneered a new movement of music called Minneapolis Sound which included many of his former bandmates and peers like Morris Day and the Time, Andre Cymone, Sheila E and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. He also trained many artists like Janelle Monae, Jill Jones, Tevin Campbell, Tamar, Rosie Gaines and Andy Allo.

Of course he wasn't perfect and he put on a lot of chicks he was fucking like Apollonia and Carmen Electra (no talent bimbos), Vanity (better model and okay actress I adore her but singer she was not)

Madonna was such a hypocrite in regards to Sinead. Madonna pissed off the Catholic Church with Like A Prayer which she wanted to be an anti-racist message. When Sinead takes a stand against the Church covering up sex abuse scandals and goes against the Pope who is allowing these atrocities to go unfixed. Madonna has the nerve to say Sinead is being disrespectful.

I agree that Prince was more talented than MJ, Elvis, and The Beatles and I collect all of their music.

The thing about MJ was he lip-synched so many performances. By the time of Bad, he was lipping most of his setlist. I'm sure that residency he was set to do - aside from being a disaster - would have had as much lip-synching as Britney's residency. Even MJ's most iconic live performance, the Motown 25 performance of Billie Jean, was completely lip-synched. The dancing was dazzling but there's something about a lip-synched performance that is unsatisfying, no matter how good the production or choreography.

by Anonymousreply 156November 21, 2020 12:36 AM

I love how yet another thread about that tired old hag has turned into a Prince love fest ! Prince never once lip synced in a performance. At one point he was arguably bigger then MJ . prince kept suing his revord labels because they kept trying to fuck him out of millions,like they were doing to every other artist of that era. En Vogue was selling millions of albums,and those ladies were damn near broke. If nothing else ,prince put a stop to that crap and paved the way for other artists to get their just due. I wont give a rats ass if madonna croaks (and I loved her in the day) but I STILL mourn Prince.

Madonna's music was successful globally but her image and demeanor was not influential like Michael Jackson or Elvis or The Beatles were. Prince in fact is enjoying a Renaissance in popularity due to his music finally being streamable. Many current rappers and singers name Prince as an influence over Madonna. Most young people dont even know Madonna that well honestly. The world moved on and nobody is denying Madonna's popularity and sales but in the 21st century she hasn't been influential or impactful. Britney borrowed more from Janet and Beyonce from Tina. Katy is like Paula. Gaga like Grace Jones.

I know she is reportedly cheap. I wonder if that plays into it? When Christopher decorated her Castillo del Lago house in LA, parts were garish but also some rooms were glamorous. But she cheaped out on a lot of the work, installing cheap "taco bell" imitation tiles. She shrunk a bedroom to make a shoe closet. The next owner spent a decade and a small fortune restoring the home to its former glory.
