Y'all... Madonna has been thirsty for attention, trend-chasing, and egomaniacal since EVER. Wake up. It's like it's a new thing every time she comes back around with Janet stans. Her quality control has merely dipped with time imo.
I think this is shaping up to be a nice album, definitely better than HC/MDNA and at least on par with Rebel Shart. So far the singles sound relatively cohesive to me - at least in terms of vocal production and overall mood. The imagery and looks are old hat for her, but I don't expect much new by now, she's done it all. I won't be going to the MX tour because I refuse to pay $300 for mediocre seats, hopefully some of you can enjoy.
