Now that the Shep's Spressin' Himself Re-Mix of Express Yourself can be counted, it's over for you hoes. (Actually, I imagine Like a Prayer might get a decent boost from this.)

You forgot the UK Top 10 single and several major performances on the world stage. (She also technically sold more units in Germany and would have been #1, but Germany has a time spent metric that put her at #2, I believe.)

134,000+ records sold in the first week #1 debut in most markets Top 10 UK hit 11 VMA nominations World Cup performance NYC Times Square performance Coachella performance After all this time, Madonna is the only artist in her class that you're still talking about in the same sentence with the youngest generation of pop stars. The only one on your minds. Funny that.

The Love Sensation Remix with Kylie is a Top 10 UK hit.

I always interpreted the "always been country" angle as "country has always been a black artform." Wasn't that... the point of the era?

"Me want the poonanny."

It was huge, but I don't see it as a cultural reset, no. Sabrina's success hasn't really changed the game.

I... I can't tell if he's going to have a terrible time in jail or an amazing time in jail.

Petal has been received warmly enough. The target of the criticism is Ariana's alleged health issues. I think there's a very fine line between backlash and concern, and this situation covered both sides in almost equal measure.

Both bad. Rebel Heart has a higher degree of good songs. But I agree that Bionic is immaculately produced, and Rebel Heart sounds like a bunch of demos.

She is so incredibly unserious and insincere. A real disappointment.

Janet Jackson should be in jail for not putting Could This Be Love on Damita Jo.

Anyway, Madonna and Kylie just scored a Top 10 UK hit.

Front of course. And I want to be able to choose who's sewn in behind me.

Selena being murdered. The fallout from Janet Jackson's Superbowl performance. People who weren't there simply do not get how huge she was before that happened. Brian Wilson being controlled by his therapist. Britney Spears's entire trajectory after In the Zone. Christina Grimmie being murdered. Ian Watkins child abuse scandal. Ike and Tina Turner; Rhianna and Chris Brown domestic violence cases. Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer abuse scandal.

And neither is Madonna. The only one she's ever had an outward problem with is Gaga, and they've since patched things up.

There were diabetics in my household growing up, so I was raised with diet soda. Regular tastes way too sweet to me. But also, I think „Zero" lines of products are particularly disgusting. Cola Light/Diet Coke > Cola >>>>>>>> dog piles >>>>>> Coke Zero

I'm not sure what all this Kelis love is recently, but I'm here for it.

I ride the beat like a bicycle... I'm icy cold.

The screenshot in the OP would actually be a serve as a single cover.

Came here to post this.

So his way of defending himself against abuse claims is to make public extortionist threats. Great plan there, chief.

It's still performing very well, but I do think the controversy and rumors aren't helping its performance.

This album deserved to smash. Had it come out in the streaming era, I think this would have been her Confessions II.

Outside of one or two songs, I never understood the appeal of Brat. I think it's a generational thing. So clearly Confessions II for me.
