Yeah, this is going to be a hard one since I don't have a preferred favorite going into this. I skipped this Kylie album because she deviated from what made me a fan to begin with. This album marked the end of me being a lamb, this was a disaster and foreshadowed Mariah's delusion of still being 12 that really shows on her future albums. Madonna, once again RAPES the urban culture in her failed attempt to stay relevant. Last but not least, we have Ms. Jackson giving us other people's visions of what Janet should sound like in 2008 instead of giving us the essence of who Janet really is.
From my basic understanding of all 4 albums...... this is where the legends went terribly WRONG!!!

Of course I included them. Some of them are miles better than the songs on the standard edition. And no problem about sending the rates in two parts.

That's why I chose this rate. Many stans think that these albums are trash but they still have hidden gems. And thanks.

I agree with Feedback being in the Top 5 but Roc With U better not be in the top 10.

I've only heard E=MC˛ and Hard Candy. E=MC˛ is better, but Hard Candy is pretty good, too.
I'm not looking forward to listening to entire Kylie and Janet albums thb.

Feedback Cruise Control 2nite Luv For the record need to be in the top 10 lol Feedback should be in the top 2. It was the best first single out of the 4. Could of been a bigger hit, but it was top 20 her biggest hit in years.
These songs need to be in the top 10
-Feedback-(I'm gonna assume some1 will give it a 1 just to stop it from being in the top 5 lol)
-Cruise Control (this song is so chill and car bump worthy lol Mariah was riding this beat)
-2nite(Great dance song could of had an epic video)
-4 minutes (without JT the song is boring but It will obviously be top 10 because it's "Madonna"
-Luv(could of been a potential hit, rodney jerkins gave Janet good songs)
-For the Record/Thanx 4 Nothin
-Migrate (could of been the 19th #1)

Discipline had some really cute hits:
LUV
FEEDBACK SLAAAAAYYYYYYEEED
ROCK WITH U
CANT BE GOOD
ROLLERCOASTER
WHAT'S YOUR NAME
Also I loved HARD CANDY...LOOOOOOOOOOOOVED IT. It is one of the only Madonna albums I can listen too almost fully. Miles Away, Beat Goes On, Candy Shop, Incredible, and Devil Wouldn't Recognize You slayed.

Discipline was a load of crap. The highest I gave a track was a 8, and that was only once. I gave two zeroes. The rest of the album ranged from 3 to 6.
All of E=MC˛'s songs were either 9's or 10's.
X was okay. I gave a few 3's and 4's, but the rest ranged from 6-9.
All of Hard Candy's tracks (except one) ranged from 7-10. Spanish Lesson got a 6.

You seem biased.
You gave everything on Discipline a low score, but everything on e=mc2 a 9 or 10? Girl bye.

Nvm, I looked over my list and saw that I gave Love Story and Heat an 8. O.O.C., Bye Bye, and Cruise Control are great IMO.

It's so weird that these are pretty much the worst albums from all four of them... (almost as weird as them just had a rate like this...)

I need to listen to Discipline and relisten to Hard Candy (suppressed memory). But for now I need to see
Kylie: The One, Cherry Bomb, Carried Away, Do It Again
Mariah: I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time, Bye Bye, (maybe) Touch My Body
in the top ten.

This is an incredibly astute observation on all four albums.
I'll add this to Madonna, though - Hard Candy was arguably the first time (I say arguably because there's Bedtime Stories!) that she was behind the curve instead of in front of it.

I want to try this! I've heard most of Discipline and am fairly familiar with X, and I know Hard Candy very well...
It's E=MC2 that I'm worried about but one listen can't be that bad.
