Oh it's real - they're all in 320kbps, but it's definitely the demo version of the album.
If she hasn't announced the album though how do you know it is an album and not just a collection of demos and discards?
The original source/download that it came from had the album title as "Iconic". Of course it couldn't be the title, but it's the only apparent title at the moment (and the only thing we haven't heard linked to this album yet).
She must've been furious when Rebel Heart and Wash All Over Me leaked like GMAYL did... Now this has happened.
When you've worked on something so personally and closely for so long just to have it stolen..?! Oh god I'd be in pieces.
I know there's a lot of Madonna fans on here and I suggest, if you genuinely love her as much as you say you do, don't listen to any of it
It's a mixed bag
Best tracks/worst tracks, etc? Best producers/worst producers, etc?
ugh, can she not just leave gaga alone ?
She also name drops a lot of other people in that song too - Beyonce, Jay Z, Nicki, Lil Wayne etc
Living For Love is good too, but it kind of feels like it's going somewhere really amazing...then doesn't.
I feel bad for her though, two years of hard work stolen like this... it would be hard to swallow for anybody.
The only positive I can gather from someone who edited together 30 seconds slices of each leaked track (which I have listened to) is this suggests this album whilst it does possess some Avicii & Kiesza-esque 2014 chart chasing sounds is going to be a return to her better darker and more introspective work (most like this decades Erotica or American Life), after the near abominations of her last two albums.
I like every song except for Bitch, I'm Madonna which is kind of a novelty song and not meant to be taken seriously. There's a lot of acoustic guitars. Some of it reminds me of American Life. There are some sad orchestral based ballads. I was expecting more dance. The only real dance ones are Living for Love, Illuminati, Wash All Over Me and Borrowed Time. As an album especially as one she tours with including dancers it might need more uptempo dance stuff, but it's great to listen to at home. It seems very personal and introspective and real.
