sipthistea 21,099 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I think people say she's talentless 'cause she's not as vocally good as many of her peers, yet she's managed to sell millions and millions of records. I think of her more like an entertainer and a business woman, who knows exactly what she wants and who works with the right people to achieve success. And she's very talented at that. What Gaga said at an interview was very accurate. Madonna spends hours and hours rehearsing to create a perfect show, which is what brings her the most attention lately. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think she'd enquire if the song was completely new and if anyone else had ever sung it. Were you in the studio when M recorded it? You've got some pretty impressive facts. Look up the interviews, nobody blames Madonna, the song was originally a poem Ingrid wrote to Lenny. When in the studio they added public enemys slowed down beats behind it and Lenny's backing vocals. It wasn't a song passed around other artists and Ingrid even plays it live now in some bars with both Madonna's and Lenny's backing vocals. Its all cool. As gaga fans we really need to get our **** spreading crap about Madonna over we look foolish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smother Em Eh 7,086 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Same! I have just gotten into her music in the past few months and I have to say, I really have been missing out! Her discography is pretty awesome to be honest and Yes, very diverse! I love most of her albums, except her last 3. COADF was her last quality album in my opinion. For most of my life, the only songs I knew from her were "Express Yourself", "Papa Don't Preach", and "Material Girl". Now, I am so much more familiar with her music. I have so many fav songs from her too! Get Applause & G.U.Y to 1B views! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scallywally 626 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Oh and if you want to bring up Donna Delory singing open your hear like Madonna stole it. Errm it was a song written for Cindy Lauper. Donna Delory was just the session singer on the demo. Madonna and Patrick Leonard turned it into a pop song.

But I wouldn't say she is talentless. She does write her own music and play the guitar. And I'm not even a fan. Can't say the same for Riri or even Bey! Get Applause & G.U.Y to 1B views!

Yuuri 21,636 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Is she talented? It depends on what area. Marketing. She's great at controversy Singing. She's a decent singer Acting. Let's not go there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snejana 1,012 Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I think ppl say she's untalented bc of her abilities as a singer but she compensates her average vocals with amazing visuals, live performances and good lyrics/production. You can say many things about Madonna but, among pop divas, her excellence regarding music videos, blending different genres with commercial pop music and performances is unmatched and that is fact Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
