hey Madonna, if you don't like it here,

then GET THE FUCK OUT!!!

Hm..

now, this is the same woman who's written a series of..

"children's books"..?


Madonna continues to prove that she is very determined to stay "relevant"
(or, "in the news")

BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.


Sigh.

She's looking VERY Patty Hearst. Anybody heard the single? It's gotta be out there, right?

Look! It's Che' Madonna!

No,it's not about "staying relevent",it's about taking a stand and voicing one's opinion about the war.Madonna should be commended for doing this.How many other "pop stars" are making thier voice heard in such a bold,aggressive manner?

According to her official website this is the cd cover.

The publicity campaign begins:

¦ S I N G L E : “American Life” goes to radio for March 24 adds. An mp3 single, with added message from Madonna, may be purchased the same day through madonna.com, fan and radio station sites and retailers. The commercial single features remixes by Missy Elliott, Paul Oakenfold, Felix Da Housecat, Peter Rauhofer and Layo & Bushwacka.

¦ V I D E O : “American Life” reaches MTV around March 23. Sunday, February 23, MTV will show a pre-Oscar show featuring B-roll footage from the video shoot.

¦ T E L E V I S I O N : Madonna performs during a highly promoted appearance on “Late Show With David Letterman” on April 22. Also that day a “Today Show”/“Dateline” hour-long special/interview, in-studio performance and special programming on MTV will air.

On April 23, she appears on “Live With Regis And Kelly,” and she stars on “Will & Grace” on April 25. Exclusive network promos for American Idol will feature “American Life.”

¦ PROMOT I O N : An “American Life” Pro-CD with remixes and edits reaches radio before album release date. Madonna will be available for radio syndicated interviews, and on-air flyaway promo contests (for the “Will & Grace” taping and airing) are set for March 10.

¦ P U B L I C I T Y: Expect massive press coverage, from entertainment news (E!, Access Hollywood, ET, CNN, etc.) to interviews/features in Q (April cover), W (April Cover), Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, People, USA Today, and more. ¦ NEW MEDIA: Madonna’s image will grace the AOL May-June campaign, including retail displays and 1-3 million “free offer” CD-ROMs.

Tentatively, she will also be Artist of the Month on AOL, MSN and Yahoo!, each with major ad campaigns. Sprint will feature her in conjunction with a ring-tone promotion in March. The CD is enhanced with links to the “AOL Session” performance, the online player, madonna.com, etc.

¦ S P E C I A L E D I T I O N : The Special Edition is tentatively scheduled as a Combo Pak adding an AOL branded DVD featuring Madonna’s “AOL Sessions” interview, the unreleased remix video of “Die Another Day,” and other links.

NOW THIS IS HOW YOU PROMOTE A NEW ALBUM!!!

Why can't other artists learn from Madonna? Even Michael Jackson doesn't promote his new albums this extensively.And there are *rumors* that Madonna will be playing a few select concert dates this spring,or possibly a full-fledged summer tour!!

TRON said:

LMAO!!...

I know...apparently, Prince feels he's "above" such nonsense as using the "digital garden" for promotion of his music...which is too bad cuz his music as of late deserves far more notice and attention than he's generating with his poorly thought-out and horribly executed "promotion"...

All she needs is the moustache...


...mf's...

Yeah, yeah...not to minimize the importance of having a record company doing all that promotion work for you, because they still get large sums of money from you...

The hag leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. Hey Madge i've heard bluegrass is making a comeback.

I have heard the new single in it's entirety,but it hasn't been officially released yet or sent to radio.There are bits and pieces of it floating around the Internet.It won't be long now.

But if you wanna hear a small piece of the song,go to...

This is a small snippet of the rap portion of the song,with Madonna rapping the lines...

"I'm drinking a soy latte
I get a double shote'
It goes right through my body
And you know I'm satisfied"

and you get large sums of money from them. not such a bad deal, when you don't have your head up your ass (Prince).

DavidEye said:

i'm aware that this is just a snippet of the song. and i'm aware that you can hardly form an opinion about the song by hearing just this snippet. but does this sound like crap or what!? can't wait to hear the entire song..

where? how? and why haven't you hooked up the rest of us true-believers?
