it looks like Rocco hates the spotlight. It's very cute.

Wasn't expecting to like the new Hung Up remix, but I love.
I just wanna go dance now.

I've liked Tokischa for a year or so already even though in general I do not consume reggaeton. One of the bad girls of Latin Urban, of reggaeton. She's no doubt very raunchy. I've liked her rapping and the beats on her songs. I'm curious to see how the Latin market will embrace this song...or not. Reggaeton is SO BIG there. I do not know how mainstream Tokischa already is to be honest, but I can see this song being fun at the clubs where reggaeton is played. This morning I was blasting the song in my car to listen well and have a good feel for it and I have to say it was fun. I played it like 5 times in a row. I agree with you, Safado. Just dance to it. Don't overanalyze it. I think people just have to see it for what it is and as its own song without comparing it to the original Hung Up. Even though I'm a Spanish native speaker, I don't understand all that Tokischa says, ha ha. She uses also a lot of slang from the Dominican Republic which I don't know.

I had the original Madonnica from 1995. I loved it!! Didn't get the second edition from 2015. I can't believe 7 years have passed already since then. And now a new version in the works!! That book is going to have so many pages! How can you fit such a long career in one book of that kind!

I like the new mix a lot. Have you noticed how short her new mixes have been? Like about 3 minutes.
I think the Frozen mixes and Material Gworl were even shorter than that.

I dig the mix..specifically the bassline. The video...yikes. She looks absolutely awful.

Wow... I can't believe she straight up asked her how many ABORTIONS she's had. S**t like that would definitely NOT fly today. And thank God for that!

I wonder if in Madonna's team anybody dares to give an opinion that will differ from what M wants to do, music and image wise. I know she loves it (up to a point...) when people criticize her and that she wants people talking about her, which is what I'm doing now.... And we know she's been fighting a big war against ageism for years and I applaud her for that. But I don't know what she's been thinking image wise in the last years. Almost like she wants to sabotage herself and simply not look good. How can they approve a video like Hung Up!? I cannot imagine her team going "yes, you look great in it! and all those moves are super cool!" It's hard to believe she's the same woman who did Justify My Love with all its sophistication.
And it's not that I'm criticizing a woman in her 60s dressing like that. I would've said the same of a woman in her 20s. Isn't there anybody guiding her a bit image wise? And in my opinion the dance moves she does are not cool anymore either. I believe she can still be amazing, but for me this is not. I'll ask my early 20s nieces what they think to get a take from the younger generation.
Anyway... just my opinion. She's obviously mesmerized with the urban reggaeton hip hop world and I'm sure she saw the Linda video from Rosalía and Titi Me Preguntó from Bad Bunny and wanted to replicate the feel for her video. I don´t think it worked. Linda and Titi are very cool and well done, FAR superior. The thing is here she is AGAIN following trends instead of creating them. Hang Up has some good parts like Tokischa in the supermarket which is what Bad Bunny did in his video in around second 55, but still this one worked. The more decadent scenes are also way better in the Linda video. I don´t think I have found yet any great scene with M in it, no iconic second or close up. I´ll watch again.
Oh, and the street scenes are definitely inferior when compared to the ones from those two videos.

Madonna is a woman that can NOT be managed. She'll do whatever the f she wants regardless of the consequences.

I am all into it. The gays about this video on facebook are the most dramatic and the worst, that is why I barely go on there. Her look is not the greatest but I think it works perfectly for the video. She looks like one of those hoodrat mean girls from the barrio, who will slash your face, if you look at her wrong. If it was a whole bunch of scantily clad men, people would have loved it.

Madonna seems to have attended Lil Nas X's New York live show tonight! Or at least, I think it's her. It gets harder and harder to tell with each passing year. She truly is pop music's own 'ship of Theseus.'
At any rate: two boundary-pushing icons of self-expression! Surely we stan.

I get the sort of aesthetic she was going for with this video (it definitely does reference the Rosalia and Bad Bunny videos posted earlier), but it just looks so low budget. The lighting and the quick cuts of all the scenes really don't help.
Not that I want her to copy or just do what someone else did before, but if this kind of playful, sexy aesthetic was what she wanted to do, it could have happened with better lighting and camera angles. Shakira's "Rabiosa" did that sort of thing better.

Cool. Thanks! I'll read it. I follow Isabella on I believe Instagram and just the other day I was wondering what she would think now about the Sex book.

She has had some truly beautiful videos in her past. I am not sure what she is thinking with this one. In addition, her dancing lately has mainly consisted of her standing in place with her legs a little spread, arms out, and flinging her hair around. All she seems to wear these days is a bustier under a very unflattering track suit.
She looked stunning in her 50 question video. That was shot relatively recently. Not sure why she went from that to suddenly bleaching her eyebrows and dying her hair pink.
She had some truly beautiful videos during the Madame X era. Prior to that, during Rebel Heart, she gave us Ghosttown. Not to mention in her past she has done incredible videos like Justify My Love, Oh Father, Ray of Light, Frozen, Bad Girl, etc. So we know she is capable of greatness.
Could it be that her record label is not funding these elaborate videos because her record sales and chart placement? I would love for her to do a full realized video album with videos that are tied together and tell a complete story....like Lemonade, Rhythm Nation, etc.

I was wondering the same thing about Madame X. That era had great videos, great production, beauty, cinematic value, etc. I wonder why she changed for such low-budget videos this year. Maybe she considers these projects like Hung Up and Frozen like just some fun on the side and that the label wouldn't finance anyway for great videos??

Madonna has become the drunk aunt at the family reunion when she sees her nephew’s hot friends.
Anyway, I still love her and her legacy. I agree though - I wish she was creating trends like she used to. Madonna was so legendary in her time. Ugh, she was the MOMENT.
