dit 46,483 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 She is truly a legend. I know all the logical explanations that ppl give for why she has had so much longevity but I am still baffled to this day. Like how did she last that long and how did she take so many risks, faced massive backlash and still turned things around on so many occasions. Also her body of work is impressive. I do not like many of her albums but her 90's albums and tracks are just so amazing. The 90's was her musical peak in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No MTV=No longevity. (Although she isn't alone.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I don't get why some of you need to put Gaga down in order to praise Madonna. Like, they're both amazing women with a lot of similarities but so different at the same time. Stop comparing them because it's useless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsches 17,433 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Like her or hate her. Personally, I do not like her. BUT you have to acknowledge the significance of everything she has achieved. So many iconic moments of popular culture were influenced by her. The VMA performance of Like a virgin, the kiss with Britney, the masturbation scene in her shows, the like a prayer video, the controversy of her outfit in Vogue... and the list goes on and on. She invented being weird and controversial for women in pop music (Kate Bush and Grace Jones did their part as well, but not in pop). Without Madonna there wouldn't be Britney, and without Britney there wouldn't be the Gaga as we know her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMILE2NE1 3,566 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 She is a legend, but unfortunately in 100 years, people will talk about her as much as they talk about her as much as your average person today would talk about ... Duke Ellington - not a whole lot. In 200 years, no one will even give a ****. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtrover 42 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Madonna is a legend from what she has accomplished, which is an incredible body of work and success throughout the years. <- That's what the thread is about according to the O.P., not whether she is currently relevant or how she compares to Gaga. I will never understand how every time a Madonna thread is posted, it becomes a pissing contest on this forum. IDK, I guess that alone speaks volumes. This thread should be closed.
