View More By Madonna Our ReviewApproaching 50 years old with this release, Madonna can no longer pretend to be the young seductress. So 50 is the new 40? The new 30? Madonna doesn’t aim for a precise number. Instead, she works to make time itself irrelevant. 2008’s Hard Candy, a few technological tones aside, could just as easily have come out in the mid-80s, the mid-90s, or anytime during her long, enduring career. It’s Madonna on the dancefloor, letting the rhythms and producers do the heavy lifting while her voice skates over the grooves with a sultry reassurance that at this point is the sound of an old familiar comrade letting you know she’s still fighting the good fight. Timbaland, the Neptunes, and Nate “Danja” Hills add their production touches, but it’s Madonna’s reflective touch that delivers the somber twists of “Devil Wouldn’t Recognize You,” the nostalgic glaze of “Incredible” where she admits, “I wanna go back to then,” and the “Everybody” tint of “Heartbeat” where she states, “It may be old to you but it feels new to me.” At this point she’s riding the wave, hanging on for dear life and making it every bit the adventure we’ve come to expect from her career.. Customer ReviewsRaw, Sticky & Sweet (4 stars)Madonna’s latest release, "Hard Candy", is a very enjoyable return to form for the Queen of Pop. Hot off the heels of her mega-successful 2005 album, “Confessions On A Dancefloor”, Madonna ditches techno mastery for upbeat R&B influence dance pop. Here Madonna reverts back to her earlier years when her music was more about having a good time, rather than speaking a social message. First single, “4 Minutes” blasts fro This is a million $$ production?!?! (1 star) I have always been a fan of all types of music and can appreciate Madonna. This album is a HUGE disappointment.. The Timberland/Timberlake sound is 3 years ago, not very current, and also boring/common as to everything else.. I think Madonna sold out on this one and the production is horrific. I am a music producer/composer and distortion without an effect is just poor mixing.. The songs sound thoughtless with very preschool type rhymes. Thi This album is Hot (5 stars) Here are all the songs that I think could become singles. 4 Minutes- 10/10 duh it already held the number one spot for a couple weeks so it's good Give it 2 Me- 10/10 declared the 2nd single, good beat Beat Goes On- 10/10 on the album in stores it says that this will be a single (love Kanye) Candy Shop- 10/10 another great possible single (but it could easily be dropped) Heartbeat- 9.5/10 hmmm... probably my least favorite of all the potent BiographyBorn: August 16, 1958 in Bay City, MIGenre: Pop Years Active: '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s After stars reach a certain point, it's easy to forget what they became famous for and concentrate solely on their personas. Madonna is such a star. Madonna rocketed to stardom so quickly in 1984 that it obscured most of her musical virtues. Appreciating her music became even more difficult as the decade wore on, as discussing her lifestyle became more common than discussing her music. However, one of Madonna's greatest achievements is how she manipulated the media and the public...
