Bubblegum Bitch 18,934 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 The song was written by Madonna and her son David Banda, alongside her longtime collaborator Mirwais. It features the Batukadeiras Orchestra, an all-women group that play drums on the song. It is a batuque song with influences of Afrobeat, featuring a call and response structure, and the lyrics of the song are about "overcoming adversity". "Batuka" received generally positive reviews from music critics, with some deeming it as one of the album's highlights. An accompanying music video for the song was released on July 19, 2019, which was an attempt to recreate the atmosphere of the first time Madonna met the Batukadeiras Orchestra, as well as their journey together. One of the most aesthetics videos of Madonna. (In my humble opinion) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brecht 7 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Would be a great song if it was 3 minutes long. My God, so repetitive. Also, the autotune... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reject False Icons 4,751 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I guess this is a good example of how a white artist can incorporate different cultures in its work, she appreciated their work, gave them a space, and recognition, what’s not disclosed is if she supported them rightly but I hope so Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like she did it because she wanted to do something like this. Madonna had a knee injury, and she is still recovering. This is what happened to Gaga during Joanne World Tour.

DavieX 330 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 'Madame X" was a different kind of Madonna Album/Era It was strange (in a good way) a big era compacted in a very short time. I still don't know how to feel about it, I loved it but it felt like a weird experiment in many ways. TRUMP 2020 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
