“American Life” was an unfairly maligned album and many of you fans rank it as one of your best. What do you think critics and casual listeners “didn’t get” about that album?

_Madonna1659 karma

because i dealt with alot of controversial issues in it. i criticized american politics, the entertainment business in hollywood..i was in an angry mood when i was making it. maybe that came across. but i was in an angry mood when i made my last album too

Ray of Light album helped me come into my own in small town Nebraska, and know that there was love and acceptance in my future. So many of us have had similar experiences through your music. I can't imagine what that must feel like for you. How often do you think about who your art is reaching?

_Madonna1360 karma

only when i hear comments like this from people do i think about it the rest of the time i only think of how i would like to explress myself i think about expression not results

Quixotic91866 karma

Madonna (holy shit, I can’t believe I’m even potentially talking to you),

I’m a 22 year old gay guy (how’s that for a stereotype?) living in Texas, and I just want to thank you for everything you do. When I went to your Dallas show last year I ended up bringing my very conservative mother with me, and you brought us much closer together. She has never been ok with me being gay, and she still isn’t completely there yet, but, her eyes were opened for those two hours. She danced with the gay couple next to us during “Girl Gone Wild,” sang at the top of her lungs during “Express Yourself” (nice job reclaiming your song, by the way), and held me during “Like A Prayer,” but, what really struck her was your “Nobody Knows Me” video interlude. When she saw me and most of the people around us begin to cry, I think it struck a chord in her.

So, even with all of the unwarranted criticism you receive, thank you for continuing to speak out and stand by your message. Thank you for standing up for gay rights when it WASN’T a popular thing to do. Thank you for fighting against misogyny and ageism. Thank you for being genuine and not exploiting your fans, unlike certain charlatans that like to try and emulate your career. Most of all, thank you for continuing to make great, and criminally underrated, music.

I guess I should throw actual questions in here after that diatribe.

Have you ever considered making an album of acoustic or orchestral reworkings of your personal favorite songs (from your back catalogue)?

Also, if you met someone that had never listened to one of your albums as a whole, which one would you personally recommend that they listen to? What is the quintessential Madonna album according to you?

Thanks so much for doing this, and I hope you get back in the studio soon!

_Madonna691 karma

_Madonna1512 karma

Twenty20k392 karma

Pussy Riot member Maria Alekhina has unfortunately been denied parole and a Russian news outlet’s headline “No Russian Feels Any Respect for Pussy Riot” is less than progressive. How important do you feel it is an artist’s duty to voice forth a statement of equity between such issues and do you feel it’s being used enough in the current year 2013?

(I want to sincerely thank you for your support for social and political justice, specifically the Pussy Riot movement. I’ve been a fan since I was 4 years old. I’m 24 now. “You’ll See” was the first proper single I’d ever owned. Thank you also for the great music & being an inspiration to generations upon generations).

_Madonna590 karma

its essential its the artsts responsibility to reflect society and have the freedom to express themselves

What is it about Frida Kahlo that inspires you the most?

_Madonna688 karma

that she was the subject of her art all of her work is a self portrait and yet she shared universal stories and feelings by sharing her personal story also she was a freedom fighter and she lived a controversial life and was a survivor so i admire her life story and art the way she lived her life as well as her art
