Is Rebel Heart Madonna's Biggest Failure?

From a marketing point of view, she's been making all the wrong decisions for the whole era, I agree. The leak didn't help her, you gotta admit it. In addition, she hasn't fallen "so fast" (30 years in the music industry and still counting) + this album is the first with an authentic "artistic" soul since COADF.

As always since HC, the tour will make up for all the problems around the album.

Rebel Heart is the first time she'd failed twice in a row. After Erotica and American Life she tried other things (Evita, COADF) with some success.

MDNA failed, it's like she went "If I just try harder, come up with better songs, promote it more, not be such a b---h to younger divas, the same sort of dance-pop will work." Nope!

It's because of the leaks. The whole demos leaked which killed the era before it even started.
 And the leaks also caused her to rush the songs, because she wanted to change them. That's why the album has too many sounds.

So commercially it quite a failure. But it's still her best album in the past 10 years :yes:

It's a great album but the leaks,rushing the album,and her pushing for relevance so hard pushed away people from actually listening to the music.

Yes and while the album is great musically the lyrics are very basic and embarrassing. See I Love New York.

COD was a great album but the lyrics were actually not that great.

"I don't like cities
But I like new york
Other places make me feel like a dork"  <----Not great lyrics.

The ABBA hooks saved this album.

To be quite honest...the album was just terrible. Vocally and production wise...

At the end of the day people don't buy albums for it's "message"...they want to buy music they enjoy LISTENING to

Rebel Heart is...in the words of Gaga...an assault on the ears

Plus, Madonna's impact is still here but only hardcore fans buy her albums despite them being bad

Quite honestly... It's worse than MDNA

As if those consciously "badly" written lyrics a representative of the album. 

Future Lovers, Isaac, Jump, Forbidden Love, How High, Let It Will Be...

Swept Away was Madonna's biggest failure. UGHHH.....horrible movie. At least she looked great in a bikini.

Am I only one who loves MDNA more than Rebel Heart? :smh: I mean, RH is a great album, but it's all over the place.

Are you ready to jump
Get ready to jump
Don't ever look back oh baby
Yes, I'm ready to jump
Just take my hand
get ready to jump <---- not good

How high are the stakes
How much fortune can you make
Does this get any better
Should I carry on
Will it matter when I'm gone
Will any of this matter <----better but not great

Let it will be
Just let it be
Oh let it be

Let it will be (just let it be)
Just let it be (Let it will be)
Oh let it be (Got to let it be)
Oh let it be (Won't you let it be)

Now I can tell you
The place that I belong
It won't last long
The lights they will turn down <---- not great either

(Future Lovers)

'm gonna tell you about love
Let's forget your life
forget your problems
Administration, bills and loans
Come with me

In the evidence of its brilliance [repeat]

In the demonstration of this evidence
Some have called it religion
This is not a coincidence
Would you like to try <----- GREAT LYRICS!

Staring up into the heavens
In this hell that binds your hands
Will you sacrifice your comfort
Make your way in a foreign land

Wrestle with your darkness
Angels call your name
Can you hear what they are saying
Will you ever be the same <---- GREAT LYRICS

The original Forbidden Love in Bedtime Stories was better.

The Lyrics as a whole in COD was not great. It was a great album sonically not lyrically.
