ahaha it's very daring! Is the picture real though, or is it a collage?

Vinylfantasy 20th January 2008 02:48 AM
It's photoshopped, I'm pretty sure her face is taken from a picture from one of the Confessions On A Dancefloor promo gigs. I'm thinking it's one of the ones where she has her hand in her pants

Cyria 20th January 2008 08:49 AM
I like Keep the Trance too. Thanks for sharing it!

Apparently this image is part of the Sunsilk ad that Madonna is in, according to Drowned Madonna. I think it's odd there are no new photos of her in it so I'm skeptical.

I think it's cool, even if it ends up being fanmade.

On another board I heard a rumour that the single will be a March, album April release.

Unilever Roils Agency Giants, Punts Bowl Spot to Boutique

BrandThinkTank Quarterbacked Sunsilk Global Campaign; Design Agency Desgrippes Gobe Gets Call for Big Game

By Jack Neff

Published: January 21, 2008
BATAVIA, Ohio (AdAge.com) -- Unilever's Super Bowl ad for Sunsilk, which breaks during the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter, may signal time's almost up for the traditional agency model, too.
Sunsilk Superbowl campaign
'Life Can't Wait': The campaign centers on icons including Marilyn Monroe and Madonna.


The world's second-biggest advertiser has given top duties for one of its biggest global campaigns of the year to a "strategic planning" boutique and a design shop, neither of them affiliated with one of its big agency holding companies.

In its first major assignment for Unilever, planning boutique BrandThinkTank, Paris, led development of the global campaign for Sunsilk, the world's No. 2 shampoo brand, with more than $1.5 billion in sales.

Brand-image firm
In what may be a Super Bowl first, the ad comes from a design agency, Desgrippes Gobe, Paris. The shop bills itself as one of the world's 10 largest brand-image firms, specializing in brand identity, packaging, retail and web design, but, up to now, not TV ads.

The campaign is being closely watched throughout Unilever, said Ricardo Sapiro, VP-global brand development for Sunsilk, and not only because it's one of the company's highest-priority campaigns of 2008. "We've been the first brand to try and implement this model, but there are other brands looking at it," he said. "Today we are getting more and more confidence that this process is sustainable and the best way to get the best possible creativity."

Sunsilk's global creative shop, WPP Group's JWT, hasn't been cut, but it's getting less playing time. It will execute portions of the global "Life Can't Wait" campaign. Sibling MindShare still handles most communications-planning and media-buying duties globally for Unilever, including Sunsilk.

Serving as head coach behind the effort is Pierre-Emmanuel Maire, former global communications director for Unilever at Interpublic Group of Cos.' Lowe, where he helped develop the global "Dirt Is Good" positioning for laundry brands, including Wisk in the U.S. He founded BrandThinkTank in September 2004.

All the brand's marketing shops jointly worked from a brief developed in conjunction with BrandThinkTank. While Unilever long has used a similar "roundtable" process, this is the first time an independent planning boutique unaffiliated with any of the giant marketer's agencies has led it.

Design executes
Perhaps not coincidentally, it's also the first time the design shop not only came up with the creative idea, but also as got to execute the biggest piece of it: the Super Bowl ad.

Others involved include digital shop AKQA, promotion agency Jam and PR shop Salt globally. WPP's OgilvyAction and Interpublic's Weber Shandwick are handling promotion and PR in the U.S. among a large cast as it rolls out within days of the Super Bowl to 14 additional countries, including Brazil, India, Mexico and Thailand.

The campaign includes a massive digital effort that seeks to drive women to the website lifecantwait.com, which opens Feb. 1, and includes home-page takeovers the day after the game on MySpace, AOL and TMZ. Billboards will go up in key locations in New York (Times Square), Los Angeles and Chicago the same day cinema ads break.

The website will ask women to share their life stories, and some of those women and their stories will be part of summer TV ads.

Massive reach
The unabashedly mass-market effort aims to hit all its targets at once -- even if that means hitting plenty of others. Sunsilk expects to reach 250 million people in the U.S. alone the first three days but also will tap into the increasingly global audiences for the Super Bowl and the web properties.

The same TV ad will air within days around the world, but the campaign will be localized, too, using regional celebrities, said Andrei Gemeneanu, global brand director for Sunsilk.


It's the first global campaign for a brand known for often edgy and offbeat local ones. It appears considerably tamer than "Get Hairapy" from JWT, New York, which launched the 50-year-old brand in the U.S. about 18 months ago.

"Hairapy" included ads featuring three gay friends of the brand's 20-something female target. In their place, "Life Can't Wait" centers on three global entertainment icons -- Marilyn Monroe, Madonna and Shakira -- starting with a highly graphic treatment of their hairstyles (as might be expected from a design agency) in the Super Bowl ad.

Connecting strands
"We're evolving from the role of best friend to best advocate," said Sarah Jensen, marketing director for North American hair care at Unilever. The campaign is based on a six-country study finding "hair, more than any other physical attribute, plays a critical role in transformation and self-expression," she said. "When a girl's hair is on, her life is on."

Ms. Jensen said Unilever was happy with "Hairapy," which she said put Sunsilk among the top 10 U.S. brands and achieved 55% brand awareness within six months.

Outside the U.S., Sunsilk is more of a value brand for the whole family and heavily concentrated in such developing markets as Brazil and India, where it's No. 1. The global campaign aims to move it upscale and focus more on women in their 20s, using a campaign Mr. Gemeneanu termed aspirational, modern and "funky."

Wish I could say I knew more, it sounds really promising from the live clip that Timbo played. I can sit and listen to it on loop and not get bored. :laugh I wouldn't say it sounds a whole lot like The Way I Are but it does sound like his style of production.

Madonna Special Weekend on VH1 Europe

News is just in that VH1 Europe is dedicating a week-end special to Madonna on February 2nd & 3rd.

"Madonna is one of the most commercially successful artists in the history of popular music, and an icon for female pop stars worldwide, thanks to her proven ability to reinvent herself while retaining complete control of her career. No other female singer in the pop arena has been as prominent or as successful over such a long period of time. Join VH1 for a weekend of pop queen ecstasy with all her early hits from "Holiday" and "Like a Virgin" to sexually charged "Erotica" and "Bedtime Stories" to her fantastic album "Ray of Light" and finally her revealing "Confessions On A Dancefloor."

Also, featured will be our famous Vaults series with the inside track on this diva plus a Making the Video exclusive with non other than Madonna in training Britney Spears. There is something for everyone from this icon who just passed her 25th year in music."

Justin Timberlake, Timbaland to appear in new Madonna video

Justin Timberlake and Timbaland are off to London to appear in Madonna's new video for the song "4 Minutes to Save the World." The two cowrote and co-produced the track, which is the first single off her forthcoming album (the last full LP she'll release for Warner Bros.), due out this April. Queen M also recently shot the cover art for the album (believed to be titled Give It To Me) with renowned fashion photographer and frequent collaborator Steven Klein. As fans clamor for a glimpse at the superstar's latest reinvention, details are starting to emerge about her new look and sound. Madonna's stylist, B. (yes, she just goes by the initial), told Women's Wear Daily at Chanel's couture show on Tuesday that "Madonna's look is going to be more edgy, more fresh — no more disco." And Warner Bros. staffers who heard the record at a listening session last month describe it as "very now." Says an insider: "For the first time, [Madonna's] not chasing the next new sound. She's embracing what's happening today."

Madonna will be dressed in Frida Giannini's creation

Gucci's new 46,000-square-foot flagship at 725 Fifth Avenue in Trump Tower takes Manhattan's designer retailing to a whole new scale, dwarfing many of its nearby competitors. The opening of the store, and Giorgio Armani's plans to open a 47,000-square-foot retail site on Fifth Avenue this fall, raises speculation as to whether Fifth Avenue is set to experience the luxury brand building boom seen recently in Tokyo's most famous shopping district, where one store is taller than the next.

....

And the brand is arriving here with one of the most anticipated parties of fashion week. Gucci on Wednesday will cohost an event with Madonna at the United Nations to benefit UNICEF and Raising Malawi. There will be performances by Alicia Keys, Timbaland and Rihanna, and the co-chair list includes Drew Barrymore, Salma Hayek, Demi Moore, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sarah Jessica Parker, Téa Leoni and Lucy Liu. For the occasion, Giannini has created special dresses for herself and Madonna, having held meetings with the performer at her home in London.

Madonna singing again in Spanish

Many years after recording "Who's That Girl" and the full Spanish versions of her hits "You'll See" (Veras) and "What it feels like for a girl" (Lo que Siente La Mujer), Madonna is digging back her love for Latin culture as she will be singing again phrases in Spanish in one of her new songs.

We heard reports that in a track to be featured on her new album, the Queen Of Pop is going to explains the English meaning of Spanish frases such as "te quiero" (I Love you), "callarte" (shut up), "besame" (kiss me), and many more.

Spanish guitars are also present in the song that is reportedly produced by Pharrel and has a nice urban feel.

Dita Von Teese to tour with Madonna

Frantically waving a glow stick and acting on behalf of Mika Noguchi, a Japanese lingerie magnate, the burlesque star Dita Von Teese bid $600,000 for a chance to accompany Madonna on tour. And then, moments later, the singer and producer Timbaland appeared onstage to rouse the crowd with “The Way I Are,” a dance hit whose lyrics (“I ain’t got no money, I ain’t got no car to take you on a date”), as sung to a roomful of people with all the money in the world, seemed very rich indeed.

Justin Timberlake talks about Madonna's new album and sound!

One of our readers - who wants to remain anonymous here - informs Drowned Madonna that Justin Timberlake was interviewed in today’s Hollywood Daily People issue. It’s an industry publication that should not be sold in stores.

They interviewed Justin Timberlake and asked a few Madonna questions.

Hollywood Daily People: You worked on Madonna’s new album with Timbaland. In what direction did you take her?

Justin Timberlake: Basically, our job was to reinvent her sound. My thing was producing her vocals – really experimenting with rhythm. Everything she does with rhythm is straightforward. What I do is more staccato and R&B. So the challenge for me was writing songs, then saying, “How can I make this sound more like Madonna?” I’m a big fan of her first album. So my mission was to write a modern-day “Holiday.” I wrote a cool house record for her called “Miles Away” that I think is a smash! She sounds great on it.

Hollywood Daily People: So is it an R&B Madonna?

Justin Timberlake: It’s an R&B/pop/dance record, but it’s still Madonna. Her voice still sounds like she’s 18 year old! It trips me out that she’s 49. She’s always been rough and tough. Her last couple of records, she’s like, “Rrrrrrr!”

Hollywood Daily People: How did she react to your ideas?

Justin Timberlake: A couple of times I pushed her in a direction where it took a minute before we saw eye to eye. Her approach was, “Well, I just haven’t done that.” And I was like, “Yeah, that’s why you should do it.”

Hollywood Daily People: So did you teach Madonna how to beatbox?

Justin Timberlake: [Laughs] No, no. We left that to me and Tim.

He says the new video is going to be "very hot" and Justin and Madonna do the same choreography and it should be out "very soon". He just got back from London filming the video. He also says Madonna opened all of the doors for him.

Madonna : "I want to carry on as a film director"

On the red carpet, reporters normally get one or two questions with the superstars, but Madonna seemed willing to linger and chat - as long as it was about the film.

"I want to carry on as a film director," she said.

She revealed her next project is a documentary about Malawi which will be shown at the Cannes Film Festival.

When asked if she was now in competition with her husband, British director Guy Ritchie, she said: "No, he's been really supportive."

She also revealed she would not be reading what the critics write about the film, choosing instead to rely on what her manager tells her.

It is not clear whether she will informed of the scathing reports that have been created by the British press.

However, some of the trade papers in Berlin have been slightly more complimentary, at least acknowledging that the male lead, Eugene Hutz, a Ukrainian pop singer, gives the movie a certain quirky charm.

Meanwhile, a straw poll of the journalists attending the screening saw them sheepishly admitting "they actually quite liked it".

Many critics, though, wish that she would just be content with music, but that is unlikely to happen.

Madonna, a chameleon with her image, is the same with her artistry.

If she wants to try film directing, just as with acting, she will have several attempts at it.

If she has proved anything over the last 25 years it is that while others give up, Madonna will carry on.

''Filth And Wisdom'' to be release in the internet

During the Press Conference of "Filth And Wisdom" a journalist asked Madonna "there are some rumors that you are going new ways on releasing the movie. Is it true that you will release the film in the internet?"

"That's a way that we are exploring, and I think that it's quite exciting because it's a non-conventional way for the film to be seen and I like doing things in a non-conventional way," replied Madonna.

Entertainment Weekly on Madonna's New Album

More details are emerging about Madonna's new album. Nate "Danja" Hills and Timbaland, who co-produced Justin Timberlake's FutureSex/LoveSounds, are co-producing some tracks on Madonna's yet-to-be titled album and Danja tells EW.com that the pop queen's next effort is "very up-tempo, upbeat and urban — it's a Virginia-based sound." Madge was joined in the studio by another influential Virginian, Pharrell Williams, but Danja emphasizes that the album's urban edge doesn't mean the 49-year-old star has lost her pop cred. "It's everything rolled into one," he says. "It'll be a classic album." As previously reported here, Timbaland and Timberlake will appear in the video for Madonna's first single, "4 Minutes to Save the World." The album is slated for an April debut. The single drops in March.

Madonna’s New Album and Video: Exclusive Rolling Stone Preview

Madonna has managed to keep most details about her still-untitled follow-up to 2005’s Confessions on a Dance Floor (due April 29th) under wraps, but Rolling Stone got an early listen to five tracks today and some behind-the-scenes info from producer Nate “Danja” Hills.

Fans who worried that Madonna might be losing inspiration as she approaches fifty need not be concerned. The new album takes a few steps away from the hyper-polished future disco of Confessions toward a more urban-oriented, thumpy funk, featuring production by Timbaland and Pharrell, as well as collaborations with Justin Timberlake. Danja says he worked on the album in London, and that Madonna indicated “she just wanted uptempo, dance, club [sounds] and everything to have a hip-hop underlining.” He adds that Madonna was easy-going and frequently in the studio putting in long hours alongside himself, Timbaland and Timberlake: “She would come in and sit in her chair in the corner and just vibe with us.”

The record’s first single is “4 Minutes to Save the World,” the track Timbaland partially debuted during a Philadelphia Christmas concert in December. “4 Minutes” has a bit of a marching band aesthetic as blasting brass play a scale-like riff, a hard, clanging beat enters and Madonna sings that the “road to heaven is paved with good intentions.” Timberlake and Madonna trade verses, and he appears on the chorus, doing his best Michael Jackson impression while quickly crooning, “We’ve only got four minutes to save the world.” The track ends after a brief breakdown where everything drops out but one of Tim’s signature Bhangra beats, some stabs of brass and Madonna’s urgent tick-tock’s. It’s a loud, busy, energetic track that is apparently getting an equally adventurous video: As previously reported, the clip (which is still being completed) is directed by hot French duo Jonas & François (Justice’s “D.A.N.C.E.”). Timbaland makes an appearance, and Madonna and Timberlake play superheroes tackling physical obstacles. The clip features choreography by Jamie King, who worked on Madonna’s Confessions, Re-Invention and Drowned World tours as well as her video for Confessions‘ “Sorry.”

The Pharrell-produced “Candy Store” opens with a big beat and Madonna’s invitation to “Come on in to my store, I got candy galore.” The track is pretty bare on the verses, but there’s a flash of brassy soul on the chorus when harmonies join Madonna singing, “I’ll be your one stop (one stop) candy shop.” The track is punctuated with throbbing breaks filled with hypnotic synths, and Pharrell jumps on the mike for a brief rhyme.

The most lyrical of the five songs is “Miles Away,” a wistful tune about a long-distance relationship with a melody that resembles Timberlake’s FutureSex/LoveSounds, an album Danja says Madonna admired. “We would come up with a track and him and Madonna would come and do lyrics and melody together,” Danja explains. The song opens with a quickly strummed acoustic guitar, then a stuttering beat drops in and the track slowly swells until it’s filled with atmospheric synths. “You always seem to have the biggest heart when we’re 6,000 miles apart,” Madonna sings grandly, lamenting, “I guess we’re at our best when we’re miles away.” The song has a more airy aesthetic compared to the heavy beats on other tracks, which reflects its more emotional lyrics.

The track that sounds most like a more urban, edgy continuation of Confessions is the excellent “Give It to Me,” which bumps along to a thick synth tone Danja employed on Britney Spears’ Blackout. It’s an aggressive, clubby track with a raw, house-y beat that’s ripe for remixing, and Madonna sings, “When the lights go down and there’s no one left I can go on and on.” It ends after a fast, killer breakdown where she chants “Get stupid” over a xylophone chime as the beat builds into a frenzy and she proclaims, “Give it to me / No one’s gonna stop me now.”

The dance floor theme returns again on “Heartbeat,” which boasts a thumping hip-hop beat with a sandpaper shuffle and twinkling Eighties-reminiscent synths. Madonna opens up her voice more, singing, “Can’t you see when I dance I feel free / Which makes me feel like the only one the light shines on.” The song features a brief rap breakdown that recalls Nelly Furtado’s chanty “Promiscuous” (”See my booty get down,” Madonna speak-sings), but returns to its clubby roots in the end.

Vinylfantasy 19th February 2008 11:36 PM
I've been keeping up with it more attentively recently due to the fundraiser and Filth and Wisdom, but other than that not so much. There are a lot of fans who have nothing better to do than fabricate fake news and post it all over the internet to promote their fansite or claim they have inside connections with Madonna's team and post fake things on forums. It's pretty ridiculous but a lot of Madonna fans are older and not very savvy with this sort of thing and take this "news" in and treat it like it's gold. :rolleyes Anyhoo, that's my little rant for the day. Just use your heads people. :)

Here is a great piece of news for you all, I think it's one of the best Madonna interviews in recent years. It was conducted by a German weekly magazine "Der Spiegel" and was later translated by a member of MadonnaTribe.

Quote:
Spiegel Interview Full Interview Translated

Pop-diva Madonna, 49, about her debut as a director with "Filth and Wisdom", about how she deals with fame and about her commitment in saving the nature.

SPIEGEL:
Madonna, concerning your career in music, you´re on top: You just won a Grammy, in March you will be admitted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and this spring your long awaited album will be released. Talking about the film industry, you haven´t been that succesful. The critics for you as an actress have been devastating, and rather few pepople wanted to see the films you played in. Now you came to Berlin to present your debut in directing with "Filth and Wisdom". Are you a masochist?

Madonna:
You forget, that this time I´m not the actress. I´m sitting here as a director and that´s really a new chapter for me. Actually I feel more comfortable with this role rather than the other.

SPIEGEL:
Why?

Madonna:
Directors are telling stories and that´s close to me. As an actress I´m just a part of an external story and I basically felt uneasy with that the whole time. As a director I can put my view into the story.

SPIEGEL:
Because you generally want to be the boss and in charge of things?

Madonna:
No, it´s not like that. Of course, it´s about control. On the other hand I´m not totally in charge of things as the director, because the result comes from the whole team and co-operation. I had the script written already with someone and dealt with cameramen, actors and technicians. I love it when elements do work out.

SPIEGEL:
But only, when you´ve got the last word, right?

Madonna:
Of course, I´m the one who, at a certain point says: Alright, that´s the way we do it! It is because we are working on my vision. But I couldn´t realize it on my own.

SPIEGEL:
Did your husband, director Guy Ritchie, support you?

Madonna:
He gave me good advice beforehand. He said: You have to be sure, where you wanna lead things. If you´re nervous and if that is obvious to the others, you will blew it.

SPIEGEL:
People don´t really think that you have self doubt. Or is Madonna´s ego more fragile than one might think? When was the last time you were nervous?

Madonna:
That´s what makes me a good actress, right? Believe me, I´m nervous very often, when things are new to me and I want to make a good impression. And believe me how nervous I have been when the shooting for this movie began. I was afraid, that all those professionals, who had worked with famous directors before, wouldn´t take me seriously.

SPIEGEL:
And did it work out?

Madonna:
The first day of shooting was very hard. Of course an experienced cameraman is not expecting me to tell him where to place the equipment. I really had to take care of to be taken seriously.

SPIEGEL:
From your work experience in the studio you must have gotten used to to be told by others?

Madonna:
Yes, it´s kind of the same thing. But I´m not a dictator. I really like to listen to the cameraman´s advice, when he proposes a different angle to me, and so I take it seriously when Justin Timberlake tells me in the studio, that the song might sound different.

SPIEGEL:
How do you cope with criticism? Isn´t it sometimes risky, to tell you, the star, that one of your ideas might not be that good after all?

Madonna:
That depends on the individual case. If anyone has a better idea than me, I don´t have a problem to accept that. But, for example when directing a scene, and I´m convinced of my vision and the way I want things to go, then that´s it.

SPIEGEL:
In the story, that you directed, young people are struggling to fulfill their dreams of a career. This looks a lot like as if it has been influenced by your personal career.

Madonna:
Yes, I wanted to write a script, that has a strong relation to my personal life. If you want to tell a good story, then you should talk about things first, that you really know about. Like thirty years ago a came from Michigan to New York. As a child I took dancing lessons, and dreamt of a career as a ballerina and then faced the naked truth of New York. As one the crowd of dancers, with the same visions and the same poverty. We all were hungry and needed a job.

SPIEGEL:
In your film an up-and-coming ballerina has to learn, that she oughta sell her beautiful body. Did that count for you, too, as a young Madonna?

Madonna:
Well, that´s a bit of an exaggeration talking about my wisdom. It´s an alteration of the maxim: Whatever the cost, I will achieve it. On the other hand, that´s true.

SPIEGEL:
What is more difficult, becoming famous or staying famous?

Madonna:
Oh, it´s a lot more difficult to stay on top. It´s easy to enter a club, but rather difficult to survive in there.

SPIEGEL:
Talking about nowadays; is it more difficult being famous in the complete digital world with Internet and camera phones, than in the eighties when you started your career?

Madonna:
That´s just a myth. It was always exhausting to be famous. A lot of artists -both in the film business and music industry- suffered from their fame, Marilyn Monroe for example. It´s brutal, if you´re constantly looked at, being reviewed and judged. When you walk on the streets with your children, when it is reported about and five people aim their camera phones at you, then that is surreal. And I don´t really mean me, rather Princess Diana or Britney Spears.

SPIEGEL:
So what´s your master plan to survive in this world?

Madonna:
There is no secret. The thing is, that there are people with survival techniques, that enable them to survive rough times. Not everyone is made for a public life. And believe me, it is hard not to let get all those nonsense to you, that people spread. Sometimes I feel like an animal being hunted. It is helpful to have a good self confidence before you become famous. And it is not helpful to be surrounded by people, who treat you like the demigod, and who don´t keep in mind the difference between illusion and reality.

SPIEGEL:
You shot the film in London, where you live most of the time; alongside with the press brochure, you worship European directors such as Federico Fellini. Have you become more of a European, than an American?

Madonna:
No, I have always been fascinated by Europe. Already as a teen, I developed a certain kind of obsession for art of the ancient world. For one year I attended the University of Michigan, where there has been a film club, that weekly showed European films. I was deeply impressed by the old Italian and French films. Actually, I don´t have a favourite film or director, but Godard deeply influenced me shooting my film.

SPIEGEL:
Ecological awareness ist quite fashionable nowadays. You obviously seem to be a fan of Ex-Vice-President and "eco-preacher" Al Gore. Do you still fly on privat jet?

Madonna:
I´m excited about Al Gore´s film about the climatic disaster. Because all lamenting about art and creativity is really ridiculous, if we have to live on a busted planet. And: Yes, I did change my life, and I hope you did too!

SPIEGEL:
Do you follow the campaign trail in America?

Madonna:
That´s exactly what I do: observing! If you now want to know, who I will vote for, my answer is: no idea! I haven´t really made up my mind. But if you do want a statement: I´m absolutely no fan of George W. Bush!

SPIEGEL:
You´re turning 50 on August, 16th. Is there going to be a big, or a rather small party?

Madonna:
A party obviously.

SPIEGEL:
Rumour has it, there´s going to be a big celebration.

Madonna:
I used to throw big parties.

SPIEGEL:
Reportedly, there will be a concert at the Central Park in New York. That´s what has been written in English tabloid magazines.

Madonna:
That´s just nonsense that you shouldn´t believe.

SPIEGEL:
Did you ever perform a search on google about yourself?

Madonna:
I´m not mad. I use the Internet only as a dictionary.

SPIEGEL:
And what was the thing you searched last for?

Madonna:
Something about the writer Rudyard Kipling. I wanted to know, if he has been a Nazi. In lot of first copies of his books there was the swastika symbol shown. But I found out, that he spend a lot of time in India and that the swastika sign in that country is an old symbol of luck.

New interview with Danja

http://blog.rhapsody.com/images/2008/02/13/danja_2.jpg

Are you still working on Madonna's album?
Actually Madonna is finished. Me and Tim did four or five [songs] together. He also did three more with a new producer, Hannon, out of Virginia. Then Pharrell did the rest. So it’s like a Virginia-produced album. I’m actually kind of proud of that. Even though me and Tim and Pharrell didn’t work together, just for us to completely conquer an artist such as Madonna ... I’m good. Either way, whether we got a single or [Pharrell] got a single, Virginia got a [Madonna] single.

What was the vibe like?
She was cool. She had a dark sense of humor that I can’t explain. She might just say something crazy that you might feel is out of line. But it’s not. It’s just her sense of humor. She was in the studio chilling with us, being open and the whole nine. With any session when you don’t know somebody, the first session is the hardest. You gotta break the ice, but after that initial session, it was all good.

So that means:

-4-5 tracks produced by Danja and Timbaland
-3 tracks produced by Timbaland and Hannon Lane
-5 tracks produced by Pharrell
