Agreed. Martin wasn't discussing their IMPACT on the industry. You all are reading into the word "relevant" wrong.
He was saying that, as a whole in the 2000's, Madonna managed to push her sound and her artistry all the way until then.
As some stated before, Michael wasn't even hardly making music during that time. People were checking for him for what he was in the past, not for the artistry he was currently producing.
