AmenTheNight 1,079 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 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.

craig 680 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 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! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkwolf 590 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunk96 2,526 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimisaMonster 31,073 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 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 toRebel Heart is...in the words of Gaga...an assault on the earsPlus, Madonna's impact is still here but only hardcore fans buy her albums despite them being badQuite honestly... It's worse than MDNA Stream my new single, 💜"Heartbeat"💜, on Spotify! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
