Reaching for the fickle youth demographic is a desperate and losing proposition for Madonna. Hard Candy and especially MDNA showed that. She ought to release another album like Ray of Light, Bedtime Stories or Music—something artistically challenging, satisfying and mature that will rope back in the adult pop audience.
The super bowl performance was the last straw for me. Especially the bit with LMFAO. She doesn't need to work with any of these children, she's MADONNA. She can stand on her own two feet just fine without these kids who are gonna end up irrelevant in a few years while she remains iconic and timeless. She's absolutely CRAZY if she has a bunch of collaborations again on her next album.
No. I wish she would go back to making good music again on her own, that last as iconic hits. She's become far too concerned on appealing to the younger generation. If anything, it backfires. There is no artistry.
No, it comes off as very desperate. Ray of Light proves she has it in her to release true solo pop masterpieces.
Any of her albums prove that. Her solo songs are infinitely better than songs like Love Song, Did You Do It, Me Against The Music, 4 Minutes, GMAYL, etc.
