Rank 1-12Candy Shop 4 Minutes Give It 2 Me Heartbeat Miles Away She's Not Me Incredible Beat Goes On Dance 2Night Spanish Lesson Devil Wouldn't Recognize You Voices Hard CandyI've taken the reins for the Madonna albums rankdowns series so we can finish off the remaining seven and pay proper respects to the Queen! First on my list is 2008's Hard Candy. Her 11th studio album, its production was split between The Neptunes and Timbaland and would go on to produce her 37th top-10 hit on the Hot 100 along with becoming the 11th best-selling album of 2008 (worldwide). Fun fact: The original album title and artwork concept was to have her portrayed as the Black Madonna. Tagging everyone who did the last Madonna album rankdown along with a few others that expressed interest but everyone is welcome to participate. This is a fairly concise album but, since I have such trouble getting people to do my rankdowns, I'll set a nice two-week deadline to see how things turn out. ![](https://i.gifer.com/5eLs.gif)

I’m, uh, glad she didn’t actually put out an album cover wearing blackface.

A great pop album, although a huge step down from Confessions. I enjoyed quite a lot of songs and disliked a bunch of others. Look forward to tanking some of your favorite cuts <3

I did not know about her almost use of blackface ![:-x](http://images.proboards.com/lipsrsealed.gif) I swear she went off the rails after the Confessions era and never made it back on them. Still, I'm going to do all of these rankdowns.

If I had time to do this rankdown, "Spanish Lesson" would have been my #1.

I wanna participate in this. Hard Candy had some addicting, fun bops! Such a fun album! My fave moment from that era was when she appeared on BET's 106 & Park.

Hard Candy (Pre-Reveals)I was actually productive and got ALL of my graphics done so, provided I finish my chores/errands at a decent hour today, I'll start reveals this evening. In the meantime, feel free to discuss: • Which songs do you expect to see leave in the bottom-3?
• Do you think the 3 singles will comprise the top-3?
• Which of the 3 singles (4 Minutes; Give It 2 Me; Miles Away) will perform the best?
• Which songs have the highest and lowest SD?
• Which album cut do you think will go the farthest?![](https://media1.tenor.com/images/c78861eac49b42fc052e58e5123852f3/tenor.gif)

• Which songs do you expect to see leave in the bottom-3? "Heartbeat," "Spanish Lesson," and "Beat Goes On" is my guess.
• Do you think the 3 singles will comprise the top-3? Maybe "Miles Away" misses, but I imagine the other two are locks.
• Which of the 3 singles (4 Minutes; Give It 2 Me; Miles Away) will perform the best? "4 Minutes" because hit bias.
• Which songs have the highest and lowest SD? High: "Voices" | Low: "4 Minutes"
• Which album cut do you think will go the farthest? "Devil Wouldn't Recognize You" is the ONLY correct choice for this question. Pulse better not have fucked it up!

Well the day got away from me but y'all are dead in here anyway so I'll just leave the teaser for #12 and knock out the bottom-4 sometime in the next 24. #12 has the LOWEST SD with no top-5 ranks and only four outside the bottom-3. ![](https://i.ibb.co/1m170m0/12.png)

Come through late night audience! Time for mess to commence. #11 has the 3rd-lowest SD with a total of 11 bottom-3 ranks vs. 3 top-5 ranks, including a top-3! ![](https://i.ibb.co/ZK6wcJW/11.png)
