According to madonnalicious.com, Stuart Price (pictured, right, with God) - during an interview with NME.COM - announced details of the upcoming Madonna album. The album will have a "new sound", and both Madge & Stuart have been working with "top producers that are very in fashion right now".
He also added the album will be released this year.
Datarock? Vitalic? What kind of sound do you think she'll go for? I'm guessing a dancey-electro-rock, which would sit perfectly with producers like Datarock & Vitalic.
Should be a bloody good year by the sounds of things... Hrmmm. Several other websites have reported similar stories, except from different sources. One site has claimed Stuart made the announcement on E! Television, whilst another says he made the announcement in the Daily Telegraph. Of course, none of the supposed sources have any online links, so something tells me it's all bullshit.
There's also the new report that Madge is working with PharrellWilliams (who does not deserve the bolding of his name thank you very much), which repulses me beyond belief. Something tells me this isn't true either, but god help us all if it is, I'm not sure even Madonna could make anything Pharrell touches worth listening to. They're also claiming Stuart will not be the main producer, which I think is also complete bullshit. She'd be absolutely bonkers not to use him heavily on the next album again, and I really don't think she's silly enough not to.
In the lead up to the "Confessions" album, you may remember news leaks "from Warner", claiming the album was to be called "Defying Gravity" and would be rock influenced. Then we got a record called "Confessions On A Dancefloor" that was all club stuff. What this all looks like is either a clever set of lies leaked by people with a bit of time on their hands at the Madonna Camp, or - and this is more than likely the case - fans who've nothing better to do than stir up shit on various forums.
Liz Rosenberg... can we have some kind of confirmation that Madonna wouldn't work with Williams in a million years? Has she not heard the "new" Gwen Stefani album, or, you know, anything Pharrell has done in the last 4 years? The thought of hip-hop Madonna sounds desperate, lame, and certainly not worth any kind of wait what so ever. Ugh.
