Madonna truly is the only performer of her generation of pop acts that deserved to trascend beyond the 80s. It was quite a hermetic time for music, and very few of the people that dominated the 80s saw success once the 90s changed the scene so drastically. Madonna was the true survivor, I mean, she still opened with 6 digits just last year

add the fact that she literally was a true master of pop for half of her career, and that she took artistic and political risks (she was an indie artist for the entire 90s), she truly is one of a kind
